Make Headline worth clicking
Many AdWords users create headlines that do not sync with their audience. Therefore thinking from the customer’s point of view. What would make the customer read your headline? Since the headline section is blue the eye of the user reads the headline before even reading the text. Make sure that your keyword is added to your headline so that it is more relevant and so it will be printed in bold. Another little secret of the advertising world is to form your headline as a question.
Make your Ad Crystal clear
People can complicate their message in seconds. This is no different when we are talking, reading, or viewing in our daily lives. Similarly in Google search, you will find this trend quite common in certain Ads. Some users write a question in their headline and forget that the user is expecting an answer to the question. Other times the Ad and search terms have no relation at all.
There is no full-proof formula that works. The best results are achieved through constant testing and rewriting and measuring to see what works. A normal user is exposed to a ton of ads every day, so it’s harder to command attention. The unique messaging that you provide will make all the difference. We strongly encourage having all forms of content in the mix. Text ads, image ads, video ads, and podcast ads. As people are everywhere and you need to reach them everywhere with consistent messaging.
Remarketing ads play a very interesting role in this. People who visited your website and left without taking any action, you have another chance to reach them and show your ads. This 2nd time around, show them a 2nd ad creative that is more compelling for them to consider and return back the site to complete the transaction. We work with retargeting ads on both google ads and Facebook to help our clients make the best use of the first-time visitors. If done well, we have seen high conversion rates with low cost per action. Talk to us about our recent remarketing campaigns.

Your creative team and designers and copywriters are the most important people and will continue to be so. After all your messaging has to stand out from all the noise out there.
