Even if you are running a successful PPC campaign for your company website which is already having a great structure with constant improvements of the ads via A/B split testing, using various forms of extensions and bidding strategies, etc., there are still a few points which you should be aware of.

In this blog, we will read about 5 important optimization tips which when implemented could help in improving the performance of your PPC campaigns.

1. Avoid Overbidding – Instead of bringing down the bidding amount at once, it is better to reduce it slowly so that it does not affect the keyword ranking adversely. By doing so, your keyword ranking will not change and also your money will be saved.

2. BMM Caution – The BMM (Broad Match Modified) and ‘Exact’ are the preferred types of PPC campaign features. Although the BMM seems to be working well for the PPC campaign strategies on Google, there have been many cases where the BMM match type has not given the expected results or not reaching the KPIs on the other search partners. 

3. Campaign Splits – The shopping-based ads will have to be a culmination of the related branding and the non-branding terms. You could duplicate or split the campaigns and set them according to the brand and non-brand terms. 

4. An Eye on the Budget – If you run low on the budget, your campaign could get capped. It could be the one that could drive more clicks if the bids are reduced. If the bids are reduced, your ranking may get a little lower but you will show up more often and for a relatively longer time on the search pages. 

5. Google Ads Attribution Model – In Google Ads, when you are using Ads pixel or Google Analytics, the last click model will be taken as the default model. This could disregard the keyword that drove initial visit but consider the keyword that drove the last click. This could knock-out or disturb the funnel traffic. To overcome this issue, you could start by choosing a different attribution model that will facilitate sharing of the credit across many touch points, so as to optimize the upper funnel traffic leading to a conversion.

Although these tips and tricks are just an assumption made from the results of many cases, the final result could vary for different keywords, different strategies, etc. It may or may not fit right for you. So, you will have to asses yourself the different cases and choose the digital marketing strategies that you think could work out well for you.
