What it is
Google Ads can target relevant adverts to people using the internet across search ads, Google Display Network (GDN), YouTube and shopping placements. This enables us to tap into users’ interests and needs to promote your cause.
How we do it
We’ll work out the most effective ways to invest your budget in order to meet your objectives. We’ll handle the ongoing creation, optimisation and reporting of Google Ads campaigns across multiple channels and draw on our expertise to make best use of Google Ad Grants, legacy Grantspro accounts or paid Google Ads.
Our tried and tested process:
- Discovery – we review your current setup covering your website, Google Ads accounts, Google Analytics and more.
- Plan – we establish your objectives, map out a tailored search marketing approach that will meet them and make detailed optimisation recommendations.
- Set up – we set up the new campaigns in the Google Ads platform, including our keyword targeting and ad copy that follows Google’s best practice.
- Optimise – we move to ongoing optimisation of your search activity, improving areas like reach, quality score and ad testing.
- Report – we keep you regularly updated on results through Google Data Studio dashboards by objective as well as emails and scheduled reporting calls.
Compliance audits
We can also do a one-off compliance audit where we’ll analyse your account and talk you through precisely what you need to do to improve it in line with Google’s requirements. To get started, here are 5 things any charity can do to get compliant.
