Pay-Per-Click (PPC) Management
Pay-Per-Click (PPC) advertising is currently the fastest way to bring a substantial amount of traffic to a website. There are several pay-per-click engines, but the main engines include Google, Yahoo, and MSN. In the past, the highest bidder ranked #1 for the top sponsored search position, and would thereby get the majority of the sponsored search traffic. But when Google introduced their improved pay-per-click program, they created Adrank, an algorithm that bases your ad's placement on bid amount, and a quality score that's based on on ad relevance, landing page relevance, and click-through-rate. This means that someone can boost their ad's position in Google's sponsored listings by creating text ads that are more relevant and better targeted. Other search engines have followed suit. This is where Netmark Essentials comes in.
Our elite team of experts knows how to run an effective pay-per-click campaign, always keeping in mind that it's not just about getting traffic to your website, at any cost, but at a cost that maximizes your profitability. Many internet marketing companies don't understand this because they are made up of computer geeks who have learned little about business. We're businessmen who have learned how to be computer geeks. We understand that our true objective is to make your company more profit, not just to get traffic to your website.
PPC Methods:
At Netmark Essentials, we pride ourselves on our world-class pay-per-click management program. When we initially take you on as a client, we carefully select one of four unique bid strategies for your upcoming campaign. To help us decide which strategy is right for your website, we take an in depth look at your website, products and services, and industry before we make any decisions. It’s very important that we select the right strategy from the very beginning so that time and money aren’t wasted trying to figure out the most effective way to manage your pay-per-click campaign. Below are short descriptions of how each bid strategy works.
Budget Based
Netmark Essentials’ budget based campaigns are setup to give your website absolute maximum exposure for every dollar you spend. The primary objective of this strategy is to obtain the most relevant clicks possible per your ad spend budget. The secondary objective is to increase the budget for the keywords that are converting and decrease the budget for the keywords that are not converting. This strategy works well for those companies that have fewer than two conversions per day or for those companies that cannot track conversions.
Rank Based
Netmark Essentials’ rank based campaigns are setup to give your website the ranking that works most optimally for your website. By adjusting the bid pricing daily on your individual keywords, we are able to target your desired rankings and maximize the performance of your campaign. This strategy works well for those companies that have had proven success at a targeted rank.
Conversion Based
Netmark Essentials’ conversion based campaigns are set to increase conversions, while at the same time, lower your cost-per-conversion. To do this, we compare your most recent campaign data to your historical campaign averages. We increase the budget for keywords that perform well, and decrease the budget for keywords that are underperforming. This type of campaign works similar to an ROI based campaign, without having to set specific conversion goals.
ROI Based
Netmark Essentials ROI based campaigns are setup to give you a maximum return on your pay-per-click campaign. To do this, we predefine target goals based upon either cost-per-conversion or return on ad spend (ROAS). We then change the campaign daily to work towards meeting those goals. Below is a brief description about how both types of ROI based campaigns work.
Cost-Per-Conversion
CPC based campaigns work best when a client has one product they are advertising online. By rewarding keywords that perform well and penalizing keywords that underperform, we’re able to better allocate your budget to maximize your conversions and reduce your cost-per-conversion. Because the dynamics of the market change frequently due to seasonality, changes in your industry, new entrants, and customer trends, the redistribution of your budget occurs daily to insure maximum performance.
Return on Adspend
ROAS based campaigns work best when a client has more than one product they are advertising online. It works very similar to a CPC campaign, but because each product has a potentially different cost, we cannot simply attempt to reduce conversion costs equally among all of the keywords in your campaign. Different products produce different levels of profits and have to be taken into consideration when maximizing the performance of a pay-per-click campaign.
