One of the simplest, sure-fire ways to optimize your paid search bidding is to use Google’s Smart Bidding. Google’s keyword bidding algorithm takes into account factors you might not ever think of, and can crunch more data than any one marketer can. Google recently rolled out new features like Simulators that can help you understand how Target CPA, Target ROAS, and budget changes may impact performance, allowing you to forecast performance in Search campaigns. Download the ebook to learn how you can benefit from using Smart Bidding.
Google Ads dominates the paid search market, but CPCs are getting out of control, especially for competitive keywords. But there are other fish in the PPC network sea that you might want to consider using. Check out the ebook to see the value you can get from advertising with LinkedIn, Facebook, Bing, and other non-Google networks.

Google call-only ads are a great way to make it easy for high-value customers to pick up the phone and potentially complete a sale. But there are some tricks to make these call-focused ads work better. For example, make sure you have very specific ad schedules in place for call extensions and call-only ads. Not having someone there to answer the phone is infuriating to the consumer. Added bonus: with a tight ad schedule, you can afford to push your Max CPCs so you are getting the most bang for your buck.
Want to get more calls that drive lots of sales? The best way to do that is to analyze the calls you are already getting. Since you can’t do that manually at any scale, you have to use the right tools. Making powerful optimizations that drive results all comes down to data. By using Google Ads with a conversation intelligence solution like Invoca, you can track all calls that result from your paid search efforts, including calls made directly from an ad or landing page. In the ebook, we’ll show you how that works.
