Our Search Engine Marketing Strategies

Google Ads

Google Ads are text-based ads found at the top of Google search engine results. You pay for placement above your competitors listings. You are purchasing the terms, phrases, questions or words your target audience is typing in.

We have digital marketing software that helps determine the keywords and phrases you should be bidding on and what you should pay per click on that keyword or phrase.

Once we know which keywords and phrases to bid on, we write relevant content for your ad then present you with your Google Ads plan. We then determine your budget and set up the Google Ads.

Finally, we provide you customized monthly reports that make sense and help us see your ROI (return on your investment) and help you decide how spend your marketing dollars.

Instagram & Facebook Ads

Facebook ads are a popular form of online advertising for businesses to promote products or services. They provide detailed targeting options, allowing advertisers to reach specific demographics, interests, behaviours, and locations. This helps show your ads to the people most likely to be interested in your products or services.

We can help define your campaign objectives (brand awareness, traffic, and/or conversions), define your target audience based on demographics, interests, and behaviours and choose where your ads will be displayed (e.g., Facebook, Instagram, Audience Network).

Display Ads

Display Ads are a type of online advertising that incorporate images, graphics, animations, or videos to convey a message and promote a product, service, or brand.  

Designing effective online display ads is crucial for capturing the attention of your audience and achieving your advertising goals. We create compelling and visually appealing display ads. The ads keep your message clear, concise, and focused on a single call-to-action, have eye-catching visuals, use compelling headlines, and maintain your brand identity. We also monitor the performance of the display ads and can adjust the design and messaging based on it’s performance throughout the ad campaign.

Analytics

When it comes to determining how successful your online ads are we use a couple of key metrics. The CTR (Click Through Rate) measures the engagement of the online ad. It tells us how well the ad captured the attention of the audience and encouraged them to click on it. The Conversion Rate measures the effectiveness of the ad. It reveals how successful the ad was in driving users to click on the ad then either making a purchase, signing up for a newsletter, or filling out a form.

A high CTR would indicate a strong initial interest, while a high conversion rate suggests that the ads have effectively guided users through the entire conversion process. It’s also important to analyze these metrics in conjunction with other factors, such as the quality of traffic, the relevance of your landing page, and the value of the conversions achieved.
