Additional Google Ads tips

After running the Google Ads Audit tool and making the suggested changes, your campaigns will be highly optimized. However, there are features in which we are still working on for future implementation (we are constantly working to improve the product!) that you should also take into account when improving your Google Ads account:

Negative keywords

Negative keywords are one of the best ways to explain to Google Ads what your product exactly is (in this case, what your product isn’t). By making non relevant keywords negative, you will get rid of the useless clicks to save money and increase your conversion rate.

Optimize your campaigns for mobile devices

More and more users are using mobile devices to make online purchases and the prediction is that mobile devices will ultimately surpass desktop users. That’s why you should definitely optimize your campaigns for these users.

Use competitors’ names as keywords

It’s a very good idea to bid for competitor brand so that you can get customers that are interested in the same kind of products you’re offering.

Use ad extensions

You should definitely configure ads extensions for your campaigns because it will drastically increase the CTR of your campaigns and make the ads look much more professional. Google always recommends using 3 or more ads extensions.

Make A/B tests

Make ads with different headlines and descriptions and run them at the same time. This way you will be able to see which ad is performing better and which one you should remove.
