Set up your Search campaigns for success
Use this 3-point strategy to maximize clicks and conversions and boost your Search campaign performance.
1. Optimize Ad Strength and Relevance
 |
Create at least 2-3 Responsive Search Ads (RSAs) per ad group and aim for “Good” or “Excellent” Ad Strength. This allows Google to automatically test different combinations of headlines and descriptions, learn which perform best, and show the most relevant message to potential customers. Ensure your headlines and descriptions are compelling, incorporate your target keywords, and are highly relevant to your landing page to improve Ad Rank and Quality score. For new campaigns or those with limited conversion data, consider starting with a "Maximize Clicks" bidding strategy to gather performance data. |
2. Enhance Ads with Multiple Asset Types
 |
Utilize relevant ad assets (previously known as ad extensions) such as sitelinks, callouts, and call extensions. By using several ad assets, your ad gains more visibility and provides customers with more information about your business, products, or services before they click. Adding assets is crucial for boosting ad performance and quality. Ensure your conversion tracking is set up correctly to accurately measure the impact of these and other optimizations. |
3. Monitor Performance and Iterate for Improvement
 |
Regularly review your campaign performance using Google Ads reports (including the auction insights report to compare against competitors) and the Recommendations page. This information helps you identify opportunities for improvement in ad quality, budgets, and bids.
