Audience

Advertising to the correct demographic can help you from

wasting ad dollars. With paid ads, you can target your

general audience, or select specific sub-sets within that

audience.

Often the more targeted your ads, the more effective they

can be. If you are unsure as to who is visiting your website,

Google analytics help provide this insight.

Examples:

• General: People that have an interest in

Landrovers

• Subset: Males 25-45 within the Florida area that

have an interest in Landrovers 49

Keywords

Keyword planning is especially important for SEM. By bidding on

keywords within search engines, you ad will be shown when

viewers key in those terms. You may have an idea of the

keywords your audience is searching. If not, here are some ways

to find them:

• Look at the keywords bringing in organic traffic in

Google Anaytics

• Use Google’s free Keyword Planner:

https://adwords.google.com/KeywordPlanner

Example keywords:

For a Landrover Parts Dealer these would be keywords:

Landrover, RangeRover, Rover Parts, Landrover Parts,

Landrover Engine, Landrover, Muffler, ect.

Copywriting

Copywriting: Ad copy should be brief and to the point, given

most viewers will only glance at your ad. Most ads have

characters limits (ex. Adwords SEM ad headline allows for 25

characters), so it is important to have a strong call-to-action

(CTA).

Example:

RoverLand Parts- Low Prices, in stock, and ready to ship!

Design

If you are using display advertising, your messaging needs to be

clear, and not lost within the graphic.

Considerations:

• Only use high-resolutions images, that are the correct

dimensions (this will be based on the type of ad and ad

platform selected)

• Keep typography in mind. You should have a clear easy to

read call to action, that encourages the viewer to convert.

• Be mindful of your audience, and that the image is

appropriate for the demographic you are targeting.

dependent on your goals
