To purchase Search Engine Marketing (SEM), which involves paid advertising on search engines like Google or Bing, you can follow these general steps:
Transcend will work with you to define your SEM goals
Determine your objectives for SEM. Are you looking to drive website traffic, increase conversions, raise brand awareness, or achieve specific marketing goals? Clearly defining your goals will help you plan and execute your SEM campaigns effectively.
We Identify the search engine advertising platforms that align with your goals
The most prominent platform is Google Ads, but you may also consider Bing Ads or other regional search engines depending on your target audience and geographical scope.
We will need to determine how much you are willing to spend on your SEM campaigns
SEM typically works on a pay-per-click (PPC) model, where you pay when someone clicks on your ad. Set a budget that aligns with your overall marketing budget and expected return on investment (ROI).
Transcend will conduct keyword research
to identify the relevant keywords that your target audience might use to find products or services like yours. Use keyword research tools or work with an SEM professional to identify high-volume, relevant keywords with a reasonable level of competition.
We will create ad campaigns
Set up your ad campaigns within the chosen SEM platform. This involves creating ad groups, writing compelling ad copy, selecting relevant keywords for each ad group, and defining your targeting options (geographic, demographic, etc.).
Determining a bid strategy
This will determine how much you are willing to pay for each click on your ads. You can choose manual bidding, where you set your maximum cost-per-click (CPC), or automated bidding, where the platform sets the bids based on your campaign goals.
One of the most important things to do is to optimize landing pages
Ensure that the landing pages you direct users to from your ads are relevant to the ad copy and keywords. Optimize your landing pages to improve user experience, load times, and conversion rates. Align the content and design with the intent of the ad and provide a clear call-to-action.
Transcend will monitor and optimize performance
We regularly track the performance of your SEM campaigns. Monitor metrics such as impressions, clicks, click-through rates (CTR), conversion rates, and ROI. Use the data to identify areas for improvement and make adjustments to your ad copy, targeting, bids, or landing pages as needed.
Continually refine and iterate
SEM requires ongoing monitoring, analysis, and optimization. Continually refine your keyword targeting, ad copy, and landing pages based on the insights gained from campaign performance. Test different ad variations, landing page designs, or targeting options to improve your results.
Seek professional assistance if needed
If you are new to SEM or require advanced strategies, consider working with SEM professionals or agencies. They can provide expertise, manage your campaigns, and help you achieve better results.
