If you’ve tried Google Ads already and found that it wasn’t boosting your business or gaining conversions there may be a few reasons why:
No landing page
When a user clicks on your ad they are directed to a landing page. This is key for an excellent Google campaign, and will increase your conversions. A user will bounce off your website when your ad does not match your landing page. No conversion is made as the user journey is hard to navigate.
No conversion tracking
You want to make sure that if you’re spending a lot of money on your Google campaigns, you’re tracking conversions accurately. Some examples of conversion tracking are form submissions, bookings, and purchases.
No campaign optimisation
When your campaign set up is poor, your results will be poor. When setting up your campaign, you should consider your audience, objectives, targeting and copy. Always look into making improvements when you notice a campaign is under-performing.
What are Google Ads?
Google Ads is an online advertising platform, where ads are displayed across the search engine, Youtube, Gmail and a network of owned and partner websites. Google works on a pay per click model, which means advertisers only pay when someone clicks on the ad.
There are different ad formats Google Ads offers.
Google Ads also work on an auction based system which determines which ads appear at the top of the results page. The auction can take into account bid amount, ad quality and expected click-through rate to determine where the ad is placed. Google Ads provide advertisers the ability to reach a wider audience and promote their products and services across the extensive network.

Remarketing Opportunities
Remarketing campaigns can help you re-engage with potential customers, increase brand recall, and improve conversion rates.
