Also known as paid search, pay-per-click or PPC, digital advertising is a cost-effective way to reach customers who are actively looking for your business. When someone does a search with keywords related to your business, your online ad will appear on page one of Google and you only pay when someone clicks on your ad. If you are new to digital marketing, PPC is one of the fastest ways to drive more leads and increase sales.
Choose where and when your search ads appear based on when customers are using keywords relevant to your business and location.
Get in front of the most interested potential customers when and where they are actively searching keywords related to your business.

As well as being seen at the top of search results, you can find new customers through Google Display Network ads where your ad is featured on other successful websites, videos and applications that your target audience is already most likely browsing.
Show off your products with an image-rich ad popping up on search results pages. Google Shopping gets users looking at what you’ve got to offer before they’ve even clicked on your site. This means less dead-end clicks and more profit-soaring conversions.
As an online business, there are few things more discouraging than an indecisive customer abandoning his or her virtual shopping cart. Google Remarketing targets users who have visited.
The number of customers with Bing as their search engine of choice is more than you’d think, and adoption is steadily increasing. Bing accounts for 15% of total Australian searches, which can make a decent dent in your leads target.
A third of Bing users have an income of $100k and are mostly an older and highly educated audience. This is huge for businesses whose target audience fit this demographic; your most profitable leads could come from Bing!
Bing Ads offer users the ability to control which gender and age demographics see your search ads, which can make a huge difference to the quality of your leads. Demographic targeting can be controlled at either the campaign or ad group level within Bing Ads.
Advertising on the Microsoft Search Network generally garners a lower cost-per-click (CPC), so you can allocate a smaller percentage of your digital spend on Bing. Potentially seeing a lower overall spend and a higher ROI on paid search.

The most relevant page to the search term should be chosen. If the term warrants explanation, isolation and a dedicated page, then a landing page may be warranted. This would be the case in the event of a new product, new word or unique service. If it is a general term that describes the business, then a homepage may be more suitable.
This will depend upon the area of business that you are in. With Google Ads, a set of targeted keyword phrases are researched and selected. When these keywords are used in a search by a user they will trigger an ad to display. Bids are placed for ad positions. Bid prices can range from $0.05 to the top end of $100.00 per click. Bid prices for keywords for most businesses fall into a range from $0.50 to $5.00 per click, this will be determined by our research and which match types are selected. The bid price depends upon how high you wish to see your ads positioned and how much competition there is for the keyword phrases that have been selected.
Your budget should be based on your business goals. If you weigh up the number of new clients/customers you need to bring in to grow or maintain revenue, compared to your conversion rate, then work out how many click throughs you need per day to reach that goal – your budget should allow for that (remember to keep search volumes in mind) plus a small margin for safety.The most important factor in deciding your budget is efficacy vs affordability. If you’re saving a lot by limiting your budget, then you may not get the traffic levels you need. On the other hand, if you’re spending more than you can afford, your success won’t be sustainable. Either way, we can help you finding a good middle ground.
