The Best Ways to use Google Ads

Now that you’re ready to go, here are some helpful tips for using Google Ads to its maximum potential. We’ve got some tips from Google themselves, as well as some great notes from professional online marketers to keep in mind.

What Google Says

According to Google themselves, Google Ads are designed to help your business with one of three things:

  • Get more calls to your business
  • Increase visits to your store
  • Drive people to your website

These ads can also be targeted to a specific area if you’re a locally-focused business, or globally if you’re a shop that’s looking for national or global reach.

More About Google Ads from Google:

How Google Ads works

Your ad can appear when someone searches for terms related to your product or service, or when they’re on a website with content related to your business. How does this work?

Keywords connect you with customers

Keywords are words or phrases you choose when you set up your Google Ads campaign. These are terms you think your potential customers are likely to use when searching for products or services like yours.

By matching your keywords with the ads you create, you make it possible for your ad to show when someone searches for similar terms, or visits a website with related content.

For example, if you deliver fresh flowers, you could use fresh flower delivery as one keyword paired with an ad promoting fresh flower delivery. When someone searches Google using the phrase fresh flower delivery or a similar term, your ad might appear next to Google search results, or on other websites related to fresh flower delivery.
