If you choose keywords that have 100,000 monthly searches, you are likely going to pay a hefty amount in clicks simply due to the traffic.<\/p>\n<p>On the other hand, a smaller volume keyword might only drive ten visits a month.<\/p>\n<p>With keywords, you want a balance of both.<\/p>\n<p>Remember: bigger isn\u2019t always better. (I know what you\u2019re thinking, and yes I\u2019m judging you).<\/p>\n<p>Just kidding. But seriously:<\/p>\n<p>Skipping past vanity metrics like clicks and impressions is critical.<\/p>\n<p>It doesn\u2019t matter if you have 1,000 clicks but only one conversion. You\u2019d much rather have 200 clicks and 20 conversions.<\/p>\n<p>Only bid on what makes sense for your bottom line<\/p>\n<p>Typical AdWords conversion rates for the search network are 2.70% on average across all industries:<\/p>\n<p>Taking that number, you need to do some basic math before deciding which keywords to target.<\/p>\n<p>For example, if you are selling a product for $15, you can\u2019t have your cost per conversion be $14.<\/p>\n<p>That would take hundreds of thousands of sales to see a big profit.<\/p>\n<p>Let\u2019s say the term you found has a $5 cost per click. If you take the typical conversion rate of 2.70% on 1,000 clicks, that would mean you would get 27 conversions.<\/p>\n<p>But that also means you spent $5,000 to get them.<\/p>\n<p>Always keep in mind the cost of your keywords and bid lower or higher based on your bottom line.<\/p>\n<p>If it\u2019s cheap, increase your bid to get more clicks and rank higher.<\/p>\n<p>If it\u2019s too expensive, bid lower to get fewer clicks at a cheaper cost.<\/p>\n<p>Intent is critical<\/p>\n<p>Intent is the most important (and overlooked) factor in keyword selection. Hands down.<\/p>\n<p>AdWords excels at intent because users are actively searching for solutions. Whereas on platforms like Twitter and Facebook, users aren\u2019t.<\/p>\n<p>Searcher intent is simply the intent behind a given search.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s the \u201cwhy\u201d behind the search. It answers the fundamental question of: What is the user trying to accomplish or solve with this search?<\/p>\n<p>For example, when you search for a term like \u201cwindshield repair now,\u201d you are probably desperate and looking to get this problem solved ASAP.<\/p>\n<p>You\u2019re at the bottom of the funnel almost instantly, and nearly anything can drive you to convert.<\/p>\n<p>But what about a term like \u201cbest crm\u201d? What\u2019s the intent on that?<\/p>\n<p>You should instantly see intent. The popular organic content is all reviews, not companies touting their prowess.<\/p>\n<p>That means that wasting money on this term isn\u2019t going to get you anywhere.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0Intent can make or break your strategy and budget.<\/p>\n<p>Always use negative keywords to reduce ad spend<\/p>\n<p>Negative keywords are critical when building a keyword list.<\/p>\n<p>Simply put, negative keywords are keywords that you specifically don\u2019t want to show your ads for.<\/p>\n<p>For example, if you don\u2019t do free consultations, you obviously don\u2019t want to show an ad for \u201cfree consultations\u201d and pay $20 a click.<\/p>\n<p>Using negative keywords can reduce your wasted spend dramatically by cutting out terms that won\u2019t convert.<\/p>\n<p>In the next section, I\u2019ll show you exactly how to use them to reduce your ad spend and keep costs lower when selecting keywords.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For more details on our products and services, please feel free to visit us at <\/strong><a href=\"http:\/\/webigg.com\/internet-marketing-services-company.html\"><strong>Online Marketing New Delhi<\/strong><\/a><strong>, <\/strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.webigg.com\/\"><strong>Online Marketing Company India<\/strong><\/a><strong>, <\/strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.webigg.com\/\"><strong>Best Online Marketing Company<\/strong><\/a><strong>, <\/strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.webigg.com\/social-media-optimization-services-company.html\"><strong>Social Media Marketing<\/strong><\/a><strong>, <\/strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.webigg.com\/\"><strong>Search engine marketing India<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Balance low-volume and high-volume keywords Keyword selection is a balancing act.
