Google AdWords

Definition

Google Adwords, now known as Google Ads, is a platform created by Google that allows advertisers to create and display ads on the Google search engine and other parts of the Google ecosystem.

The tool itself is free to use, and advertisers only pay for the budget they spend on their ads.

How does Google Ads (Google Adwords) work?

Google shows ads to people who are searching for something or browsing within the Google Display Network, which is linked to the Google Ads system.

How to get started:

  1. Upload Your Materials: Add your ad content (texts, images, videos, etc.) to the system.
  2. Set Your Targeting: Choose your specific audience based on factors like keywords, demographics, or location.
  3. Configure Your Bidding Strategy: Decide on the bidding strategy and keywords for displaying your ad.

Google Ads operates like an auction. It uses a pay-per-click (PPC) model, meaning you only pay when someone clicks on your ad. The auction system determines which ad gets displayed.

When setting up your bids, you decide how much you are willing to pay for each click. You can manage your spending through a daily budget.

The cost per click (CPC) depends on several factors, including the competitiveness of the keyword and the quality and creativity of your ads.

Sponsored (advertising) results are displayed first in the search.

Advantages of Google Ads (Google Adwords) for e-commerce

1. Enhance the visibility of your business and brand in search results to attract more potential customers.

2. Tailor your ads to reach your specific audience using keywords, demographics, or location targeting.

3. Google Ads (formerly known as Google AdWords) provides a comprehensive system for monitoring and assessing the effectiveness of campaigns. You can monitor click-throughs, conversions, and optimize advertising to maximize return on investment (ROI).

4. You can retarget visitors who have previously visited the website..
