Clicks – Google will try to always show ads that
are likely to provide more clicks to your offer.
This is useful if you are looking to drive traffic

AdWords to show ads that have the highest
conversion rates. This is useful if your business
is more concerned with conversions than just
generating traffic to the site.

measure the CTR and conversions of a variety
of ads, pages, etc. Also rotate all ads evenly for

8. RECIPE - Successful PPC ecommerce campaigns
▪ ECOMMERCE - Advertising can be a complex endeavour based on the number of products and nature of the online store. Developing
effective strategies for e-commerce PPC is essential to thrive among the competition. Here are my top 8 MUSTS for a successful e-
commerce PPC campaign:
1. Keep it simple: Always simplify the process of purchasing products on your e-commerce site. Use a clear, simple product search and
navigation, and only put information useful to the specific need.
2. Use high resolution pictures of your products: No matter how well-designed, nobody will pay attention to your product if your images are
low-quality. Also, use more than one image for each product if possible and at various angles.
3. Product Details: Provide specific thorough details about the product. This will ensure your consumer is well-informed.
4. Shopping Cart: It is important to simplify the purchase experience for the consumer. Whether it is changing the quantity of items,
removing an item, calculating taxes or shipping costs, actions must be easy to perform.
5. Payment Options: Include credit cards, PayPal or Google checkout. You want to be able to conduct a transaction with anyone who wants
to buy a product on your site.
6. Product Comparisons/Similar Products: Most websites will find benefit from letting consumers compare two or more products at once.
Give the user recommendations: A classic example is, “People who bought this, also got this.” This alone can increase your sales.
7. Shipping: Consider free shipping for a specific amount purchased or line of products. Also, if billing and shipping addresses are the same,
only have your clients fill in the form once. Also make sure to offer shipment tracking.
8. Tracking Conversions: Placing a code snippet on a thank you or order confirmation page.

9. PPC – ROI
▪ (Revenue - Cost of goods sold) / Cost of
goods sold
▪ Let's say that you have a product that
costs £100 to produce, and sells for
£200.
▪ You sell 6 of these products as a result
of advertising them on AdWords, so
your total cost is £600 and your total
sales is £1200.
▪ Let's say your AdWords costs are £200,
for a total cost of £800. Your ROI is:
(£1200 - £800) / £800
= £400 / £800
= 50%

10. PPC – Return On Ad Spend
Keyword – ‘land rover discovery tyres’
▪ Monthly search volume = 10k
▪ CPC = 0.35
▪ CTR = 5% = 500 = £175(Ad Spend)
▪ Conversion = 5% = 25 x £75(sale price)
= £1875 - £175(ad spend) - £875 (£35 x
25 cost of product) = £825
▪ Your ROAS is:
(£1875 - £1050) / £1050
= £825 / £1050
= 78.5%

11. SEO vs PPC - ROI
▪ An organic search result has 8.5
times more chances of being
clicked on, than a paid search
result.
▪ SEO > Low profit margin
businesses + no ad blindness +
search trust + lower cost of
acquisition.
▪ PPC > Instant traffic + results.
Higher cost of acquisition.

12. SEO vs PPC – Budget Split
▪ No universal answer to what the split
between PPC and SEO should be. Initial
split likely to favour PPC however, but
adjusted as SEO rankings improve.
▪ Organic search drives 50-75% of total
search traffic, the budget apportioned
for that activity should be equal to or
1.5 times as much as the paid search
budget multiplied by the comparative
profitability of an organic search click.
▪ As your site moves up the organic
rankings, tweak your budget allocation
to reduce PPC spend and increase the
spending on SEO and other organic
marketing strategies.
▪ Remarket to past visitors to improve
conversion and trigger repeat purchase.
Remember, the landscape is constantly changing. As the
market evolves and new competitors emerge or customer
needs change, your strategy may need to evolve as well.
