PPC and digital marketing are constantly growing. However, the need for good, engaging ad copy is still the heartbeat of a great advert, regardless of the new ways to display it. PPC adverts are a good way for businesses to narrow down who they want to see their website. Here are some quick tips to assist you in analysing the market competition and creating compelling ad copy that outperforms your competitors.
Be Specific
Avoid the mistake of creating very generic PPC advert text, try to be as specific as possible to ensure that the target audience receives the right message. PPC ads typically don’t have enough room for you to create detailed, lengthy descriptions. You are restricted to a character count and must create engaging and appealing ad copy.
Therefore, you must keep your PPC advertising short and to the point when writing it. Don’t forget to include your uniqueness in your ad copy to increase its persuasiveness to potential clients. Clearly state why clients should select you over your competitors. What makes you different to them? Why should clients choose your company? What does your company have to offer?
Be Relevant
In general, it’s crucial to ensure that all of your advertising is in line with the relevant landing pages and keywords. Limit the number of words you use and only use those that enhance the value of your product or service. Ensure your campaign structure is optimum while setting up your PPC advert campaign and ad groups to increase the adverts’ relevance.
Your ads will display in bold type if they contain keywords relevant to the users’ search terms and show how relevant they are to their intentions. The more your ads are relevant, the Click Through Rate and the Quality Score will increase and the Cost-per-Click will reduce. Therefore, you’ll receive more clicks and conversions while paying less per click.
Make An Eye-Catching Headline
In the PPC advert industry, there is intense competition among almost everyone competing for the users’ full attention. Today’s visitors are in such a rush that they only skim the website or search results. How will you get people to pay attention to your PPC advertisements in such a situation?
It is crucial to craft headlines for your advertising that are interesting and attention-grabbing and set you apart from your rivals. In addition, people aren’t interested in what you do but rather in what your product or service can do for them. Therefore, it is always preferable to highlight advantages in your headline rather than features.
Include keywords related to your product or service in your title. By using the currently trending keywords, you can increase the chances of your ad being seen and can also increase the CTR. Target the users’ emotions while writing headlines since an emotional connection generates curiosity.
Highlight Your Unique Selling Proposition
It would help if you had a unique selling proposition (USP) to describe to users how you differ from your competition. For example, what makes your product or service special, or what value will your customer receive after purchasing it?
Offer free, or next-day delivery? Talk about it. 20% off new orders? Make sure it is mentioned.
It would be best if you emphasised your Unique Selling Proposition. To differentiate yourself from your rivals, it must be something that others don’t provide or that you can do much better.
Make sure your USP is unique and speaks to your target audience. Due to the character limit, it can occasionally be very challenging to include your USP in the ad text. Create meaningful, catchy language highlighting the advantages of your goods and services while setting you apart from the competition to overcome this problem.
Test The Various Elements Of Your PPC Ads
The secret to determining the success of PPC advert conversion is to test the various components. It would be best if you did A/B tests on the advertising to determine which one will perform the best. Then, test many iterations of your ads to improve them based on conversions continuously. You must regularly test your advertising to get a good CTR and a profitable ROI.
You should test the best-performing advertising since there is always space for improvement, even if your ads perform well. For example, you may find out which Call-to-Action appeals to and addresses the pain points of your potential consumers by testing various Call-to-Actions. A PPC ad contains many components that should be tested, including the headline, call-to-action, offer, display URL, punctuation, keywords, etc
