  1. Experiment constantly.
  2. Use your main keyword in both the title and description of your text advert.
  3. Target your audiences through location for better results.
  4. Use power words throughout your campaign.
  5. Run a negative campaign alongside your normal one (e.g. if targeting people wanting to buy something new, use ‘used’ as a keyword).
  6. Display less text on the landing page and more pictures or even a video.
  7. Capitalise the keywords in your PPC text advert to make them stand out more.
  8. Create a custom landing page – do not use your homepage as a landing page.
  9. Install Google Analytics onto your landing page to gain an idea of the success rate of your landing page.
  10. Regularly check your keywords in search engines to see your competition.
  11. Regularly check your brand name to see if other advertisers are bidding for it.
  12. Add urgency to your campaign. For example, the discounted offer ends soon.
  13. Trademark symbols increase conversion rates. ™ © ®
  14. Keep your campaign up to date and fresh – do not leave them to sit there and rot.
  15. Add internal links to your landing page so that if the web user is not interested in the landing page, they can explore the rest of your website.
  16. Use Mobile PPC.
  17. Make sure your CPC reflects the amount of traffic you want (high = lots of traffic).
  18. Maximise the quality score.
  19. Bid on your own brand name even if others are not.
  20. Do not make your advert title too long.
  21. Use a custom URL for the text advert.
  22. Do not reveal too much information in the text advert. You want to entice the web user into a click of extended knowledge.

  24. Reduce distractions on your landing page to optimise your conversion rate.
  25. Keep a list of all the things which worked well with your campaign and what didn’t – use this for future similar campaigns.
