Ad copy should make a good first impression like a dating profile. It should highlight key benefits in 3 sentences or less while enticing clicks through compelling calls to action. High-quality images and unique value propositions can help ads stand out. The landing page is also important for converting visitors into customers by providing what was promised in the ad and guiding people through the sales funnel.

- Lindsay Lohan after a night of imbibing. The real version of “Freaky Friday”
- Ha, ha, get it? Think about it, searchers are getting more abstract and longer in their searches so your standard ad copy best make a good impression. They’re also more and more likely to make another query, using similar keywords/phrases, so you want that first time to stick out on the page.
- You know what your goals are for your site, your business, but what is it for that singular ad? Purchase, download, sign up? Tailor that ad to what you want them to do exactly. Don’t play games. If you’re looking for a longterm relationship like a membership, you’ll need to finesse them and court them a bit more than the one night stand purchase of a CD.
- Keeping your conversion goal in mind, it’s time to entice potential customers to start clicking.
