PPC Management Services in South Florida

Are you looking for a type of advertising that won’t kill your budget but will produce excellent results? The answer is pay-per-click advertising (PPC). It’s a staple of Internet marketing, and it’s one of the most affordable and effective ways to drive traffic, increase conversions, and otherwise market your business.

Best of all, it’s one of the only advertising models in which the amount you spend is directly related to the results you achieve.

What is PPC Management?

If you’ve ever looked something up on Google, you’ve almost certainly seen PPC in action. Every time you conduct a Google search, PPC ads pop up immediately in response to what you’ve searched. They show up above regular search results, and they’re marked with a small label that says “ad.”

If you click on one of the paid PPC ads, you go to a landing page at the advertiser’s company. That landing page will be directly related to what you searched on Google and what the ad said.

So if you searched for hair salons in your area, you’d most likely see ads that want to get you to schedule an appointment. They attract your attention with a quick headline and a short description, and then their landing page convinces you to schedule.

But even if you don’t schedule an appointment, the salon that produced that ad pay a small fee to Google (usually a few cents) since you clicked on their ad.

This is where the term “pay-per-click” originated — you will only pay when someone clicks on your ad. If no one clicks, you don’t spend any money.

Nearly any type of conversion goal can be tracked. PPC is a powerful tool for aligning website traffic drivers to end-goals.

While there are several nuances regarding default campaign settings, you ultimately have control over a wide range of options for how you reach potential customers. This starts with the keywords or placements you choose to target and how restrictive you want to be.

You also have a lot of budget flexibility if you want to start small. You can set your own ad budget and bids, and choose what you’re willing to spend (though you have to pay at least close to a market rate to play in most cases).

6. PPC Works Well With Other Marketing Channels

Content marketing has taken over the digital marketing world and content plans and calendars are the norm in most businesses now. With the investment in producing original and unique content to support the customer buying cycle and establish thought leadership positioning, Google Ads is an engine that can drive visitors to content more quickly and improve the ROI on your content investment.
