Search Advertising

2 articles in Search Advertising.

Search advertising is the practice of buying text ads that appear when a person searches for a specific term. The ad can be matched to a keyword, a place and a time of day, which gives small businesses tight control. It is a direct route to people already looking, as long as the ad, the keyword and the landing page agree.

Common questions

What is the difference between search ads and display ads? expand_more
Search ads appear when someone types a query, so they catch active interest. Display ads show on websites and apps to people who may not be looking. For most small service firms, search ads give faster and more direct leads.
How do I choose keywords for my ads? expand_more
Start with the services you want to sell and the words customers use, including place names. Add negative keywords to block searches that do not fit, such as jobs or free guides. Review the real search terms often and adjust.
Why does my ad show but nobody clicks? expand_more
The ad text may not match what searchers want, or competitors may be offering clearer reasons to choose them. Check your headline, service wording and any extra details you can add. Testing two or three versions usually helps.
