The return on ad spend (ROAS) is a key metric to track the success of your Google Ad campaigns. It shows how profitable your conversion rates are compared with the total amount you’ve spent on those campaigns.
Let’s explore some of Google’s advertising services that can help your business thrive online:
Google Search
Google Search advertising is a very effective way to reach potential customers. The search engine receives over 3 billion search queries each day, and advertisements appear on a results page as links or text ads. Google paid Search enables businesses to use words or phrases related to their products and services to reach people looking for specific information or products online.
Google Search advertising is beneficial for all types of businesses as it provides measurable results such as website clicks, direct conversions and audience demographics. Google Search adverts are based on keywords, which are how users search for products and services online. Businesses bid on keywords they want their ads to trigger for when a user performs a search on Google. If an ad’s relevance, quality and bid amount are high enough, based on the algorithm’s criteria, it may be placed at the top of Google search results pages.
Keywords that trigger ads are determined by the amount advertisers bid for them, which is based on how often the keyword is searched and whether similar advertisers are bidding on it. Google automatically sets your bid based on its own analysis of what advertisers are willing to pay for a particular keyword.
Keyword quality score measures the effectiveness of your keywords compared to the relevancy of the targeted pages and their on-page content. It is measured on a scale of 1 to 10 and displays at both the keyword and ad levels. A higher quality score means that an ad and its landing page are more relevant and useful to users searching for a particular keyword.
To get the best results from Search campaigns, we can ensure your Ads campaigns have a strong structure and layout, use a correct bidding strategy, select strategic keywords related to engaging website content, and optimise landing pages for conversions.

Google Shopping
Google Shopping is a comparison shopping engine that allows businesses to create and manage visually appealing product-based ads, improving product visibility and driving sales across Google’s dedicated Shopping engine. Customers can search, view and compare products on Shopping results. Around 80% of online purchases are made through Shopping ads, making the platform an essential way for eCommerce businesses to drive sales without users clicking on their website.
Unlike traditional text-based ads which rely on keywords, Google's Shopping ads use a merchant’s uploaded product data to display visually appealing, rich product advertisements. These advertisements include images, titles, descriptions and prices. This helps shoppers compare your products to similar items from other sellers.
Product feeds are essential for successful Shopping campaigns. They help determine which search terms your product listing information appears for and help improve your return on ad spend (ROAS). Our Google Ads experts will optimise your product feed by adding relevant photos and titles so that people searching for them at the times when they’re most likely to buy can find you.
A well-structured and optimised Shopping product feed and Shopping campaign can help increase your product visibility by appearing for more broader product searches, or alternatively can be used to help target more precise search terms.

Google Display
Google Display advertising allows businesses to reach potential customers with custom display imagery or text ads across a network of websites and apps. By placing display ads on relevant sites throughout the Google Display Network; which includes over 2.5 million partnered websites and over 650,000 mobile apps, businesses can drive sales to customers who are already interested in similar products or services.
Display ads can be text, image, or video and are targeted to users by age, gender, location, interests and other factors. Display adverts appear on the top and sides of publisher websites that have partnered with Google. They reach audiences who are interested in your products/services for a fraction of the cost of traditional advertising methods.
With Google Display advertising, businesses can reach a wider audience, build brand awareness and increase sales by reaching the right audience at the right time with relevant calls to action. Display adverts are ideal for promoting your business visually when people are browsing similar products and services to yours.
In addition, display ad campaigns are a powerful way to target remarketing audiences. Remarketing audiences can include a variety of custom-defined audience lists, including users who have made historic purchases, spent a certain amount of time on the website, cart abandoners, etc.

Google Remarketing
Google Remarketing allows businesses to reconnect with customers who have visited your website but haven’t made a purchase. Recapturing your lost audience in an attempt to increase your conversions. This can be done through a variety of display ads placed on Google’s own sites and partner sites.
Our Google Ads experts will create remarketing campaigns that target customers who visit your website and show ads on relevant websites to them. Such visitors include shoppers who have previously visited your website and added items to their shopping cart but did not complete the transaction, users with interests in specific subjects that match your business like fashion, and users also interested in similar products by competitors.
Our team will acquire accurate and reliable data on your target audience and then use that information to create remarketing ads that are more relevant to those consumers. Relevancy is key when it comes to Google Remarketing. By showing users ads that are relevant, we are more likely to capture their attention and bring them back to your site.
Google Remarketing is an excellent way to target users on a more granular basis, creating a more refined audience, which in turn attracts more qualified visitors from Google Ads. Increasing the probability of converting more qualitative visitors.

Google Discovery Ads
Discovery Ads are featured within Gmail, YouTube, and Discover, the widget where you see news feeds beneath the search bar on Android phones. These ads are for savvy users who frequently check their feeds across these platforms, browsing for opinions, ideas and aspirational products that capture their mood and imagination.
As a fairly new form of advertising, Google Discovery Ads are being leveraged by many big brands across fashion and clothing, but they can be used by a wide variety of industries. By harnessing the power of user demographics, they appeal to users based on interests and recent search and browsing behaviour. Have you been researching summer holiday destinations over the last week? Along with links to articles relating to travel, don't be surprised if you see ads for beachwear, flights, hotel deals and travel insurance within your feed.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I get started with my own Google Ads business account?
The first step to getting started with Google Ads is creating a business account. To do this, you’ll need to have a Gmail address.
Then, follow these steps:
1. Go to https://ads.google.com and click Sign Up Now.
2. Enter your email address and name, then select an account type (i.e., personal or business).
3. Enter your billing information and complete the sign-up form by selecting your country of residence and whether you want to use a credit card or Paypal for payment.
4. Click Create Account when finished.
Alternatively, our Google Ads experts can set up the ad account for the client if needed.
How much budget do I need for Google Ads?
This is a very common question. And there’s no one answer to it, as it depends on many other factors. The minimum amount of money you should spend on Google Ads depends on three things: your goals, the number of keywords you want to target and the competition level in those categories.
For example, if your goal is to get more traffic from Google Ads, then the minimum amount of money you should spend will be based on how much each visitor costs you (CPA). If that number is too high and you can’t manage to lower it because of high competition or other reasons, then you won’t be able to make any profit with Google Ads.
How does Google Search work?
The way the system works is pretty straightforward: a user types a search term into the Google Search bar, which then displays relevant results. The ads on those pages are based on keywords related to the user’s query, so if you’re looking for information about hotels in Middlesbrough and type “hotels Middlesbrough” into the search bar, you’ll see an ad from a hotel in Middlesbrough, England.
Google Search Network ads show up in several places outside of Google Search results—in image searches (which have increased by 150%), YouTube videos, Gmail messages and more.
How does Google Shopping work?
Google Shopping is a search feature that helps retailers sell products through search results. In Google’s words, Google Shopping “makes the world your storefront.” Retailers that use the platform gain access to the search giant’s enormous user base, potentially enhancing their sales.
Google Shopping works by providing product listings, product information and price and availability of products that are connected to online retailers. Google Shopping also works as an intermediary between online retailers and Google’s massive user base, which includes people who are looking for items to buy as well as those who have already made purchases.
How does Google Display work?
Google provides businesses with an opportunity to advertise on websites that are a part of the Google Display Network. The Google Display Network reaches over 2 million websites. These sites can range from niche sites like Reddit to major publications like The Guardian. Advertising agencies like us can create display ads in the form of banner ads, skyscrapers, posters, animated gifs and rich media ads. Rich media ads allow advertisers to collect information about their users and then try to draw correlations between various demographic categories and actions that they take while interacting with their advertisements. Google allows advertisers to target their advertisements based on a variety of different criteria including gender, age, interests, specific websites, and geographic location. Advertisers are able to set a daily budget and have full control over their ad’s performance.
What sort of Google Ads campaign is best for my business?
Depending on the goals/KPIs of your business, as well as the type of business you have, a Google ads campaign can be tailored to fit many directions. The key is to first determine what kind of Google ads campaign will be best suited to your business. For example, if you have an eCommerce business, we can develop a Google Shopping campaign that increases the visibility of your products, or we can target specific customer segments that you want to reach. If you’re looking for lead generation, we can develop a PPC campaign that targets keywords related to your industry.
With so many options, it’s important to establish the goals of your brand in order to know which Google ads campaign will work best for you. If you want to improve lead generation, brand awareness and conversions. Our marketing specialists will collaborate with you to understand the key messaging for your campaign, who your target audience is and what they want from your business. Based on this information we will create an optimised campaign that will aim to increase your return on investment.
What is Quality Score?
Google’s Quality Score is a rating of the relevance of your ads, based on click-through rate (CTR), ad and keyword relevance, landing page quality, and account performance. If you use misleading information in your ads or have poor on-page content that isn’t optimised for the targeted keywords, you damage your Quality Score. A low score means that Google is more likely to place competing ads above yours. By having an optimised Quality Score, your business will be able to make a higher return on investment.
What is Google Analytics 4?
Google Analytics 4 (GA4) is a major upgrade of Google’s web analytics tool, which helps businesses measure and improve their website performance. The redesigned interface and reporting tools make GA4 easier to use than earlier versions.
Google Analytics 4 offers a next-generation approach to privacy-first tracking, x-channel measurement and AI-based predictive data all at once. It boasts extensive cross-platform tracking capabilities, predictive insights, and a slew of other features that help businesses track website data and the engagement of customers throughout their entire journey.
For more information on Google Analytics 4 and its updated features and changes, check out our comprehensive blog here.
What YouTube advertising campaigns are available?
To get the most out of your advertising campaign on YouTube, it’s important to determine what type of ads you want to run. There are six different types of ad campaigns available to maximise your reach and engagement with YouTube users:
Skippable in-stream ads: Skippable in-stream ads play before, during, or after other videos on YouTube and websites and apps on Google video partners. After 5 seconds, viewers can skip the in-stream ad and continue watching the video.
Non-skippable in-stream ads: Non-skippable in-stream ads play before, during, or after other videos on YouTube and websites and apps on Google video partners. Viewers don’t have the option to skip the ad.
Bumper ads: Bumper ads are short video advertisements designed to let businesses reach more customers and increase awareness with short, memorable messages. By using videos of 6 seconds or less, bumper ads allow you to provide a minimal impact on your viewers’ experience while communicating your brand message.
In-feed video ads: In-feed video ads place your brand, product or service alongside YouTube content that is likely to be viewed by your target audience. In-feed ads appear when users search for videos on YouTube, in the watch next column of videos on the YouTube app and in the Home feed.
Masthead ads: YouTube Masthead is a native video-based ad format that appears in the YouTube Home feed across all devices. It can be used to showcase your brand, product or service, and it is ideal for people who want to:
Responsive display ads: Google’s responsive display ads allow you to upload assets (images, headlines, logos, videos and descriptions), and Google will automatically generate ad combinations for websites, apps, YouTube and Gmail. These ads can be used in display campaigns.
Is SEO or Google Ads a better strategy to rank on Google?
Both Search Engine Optimisation (SEO) and Google Ads are viable methods of increasing website traffic and delivering qualified leads, but there are specific instances where one will work more effectively than the other.
Search Engine Optimisation (SEO) is a longer-term strategy that involves a series of techniques, including on-page and off-page optimisation, technical optimisation, and marketing techniques to increase your website’s rankings on Google. On-page SEO includes techniques such as creating relevant and keyword-rich content for potential customers, while off-page SEO includes techniques such as link-building and public relations.
Google Ads is a cost-effective and fast way to market your business online and drive traffic to your website, this is done by creating text and display ads that appear on Google search results and other websites across the web. With Google Ads, you have a lot of control over your ads, including location, device, audience and more. It also allows you to run multiple campaigns at the same time for maximum exposure.
While both strategies are effective in driving traffic to your website, Google Ads has the benefit over SEO in terms of its ability to reach people at the exact moment they are looking for a product or service like yours.
When a website has high search engine optimisation (SEO), Google Ads campaigns will be more successful because the advertisement will be surrounded by organic results that exist around it. This means that even if someone doesn’t click on the advertisement, they may still see your business organically through other links and click on it.
The best way to use both is by optimising the Search Engine Optimisation (SEO) of your website and creating Google Ads campaigns that complement each other. If you only use Google Ads on a poor website, your performance will be diluted. By using both strategies together, you can achieve better results at a lower cost.
