To start using Google Remarketing we first need to add the remarketing tag to your website. The tag is just a small snippet of code supplied by AdWords. After your website is tagged it is time to create a remarketing list.

The first list we may create for you could be all the visitors to a specific page on your website that promotes a particular product or service.   So, when people visit that page, their cookie ID is added to that remarketing list.

SBIM then builds a campaign with a specific ad message to show only to people on that product or service list while they search on Google or browse Display Network websites. Your remarketing ads won’t be shown to people who aren’t on the list.

• Increase traffic to your website or app
• Boost sales
• Develop your reputation and awareness
• Grow loyalty and customer retention
• Improve ROI

Static Display Remarketing – Show ads to past visitors as they browse Display Network websites and use Display Network apps.

Dynamic Remarketing – Show dynamic ads to past visitors with products and services they viewed on your website as they browse Display Network websites. This is ideal for retailers.

Remarketing for Mobile Apps – Show ads to people who’ve used your mobile app or mobile website as they use other mobile apps or other mobile websites.

Remarketing Lists for Search Ads – Show ads to your past visitors as they do follow-up searches for what they need on Google, after leaving your website.

Video Remarketing – Show ads to people who’ve interacted with your videos or YouTube channel as they use YouTube and browse Display Network videos, websites and apps

Call Extensions make it easy for customers to call by featuring your number directly in an ad and on mobile phones. This gives them the ability to call directly from the ad. Call Extensions are great if you have a well-developed mobile website and want to give customers the chance to learn more before calling

Call only ads create separate ads to showcase your number and the ability to click-to-call, without having mobile searchers click through to your website first to retrieve the number. Call only ads are perfect if you are concerned that a mobile customer will bounce or get distracted after visiting your mobile website.

Measurement is the foundation of great campaigns. It lets you know what’s working and what’s not, so we can invest your advertising dollar more wisely. Call campaigns are no exception. For the most accurate picture, we measure all calls from ads, regardless of whether they come direct or after a click through.

 Google Forwarding Number

This number enables call metrics, which captures call duration, call start/end, caller area code and more. Set up calls-as-conversions reporting for better measurement and smarter bidding.

Website Call Conversions

When a user clicks through an ad to your website, Website Call Conversions inserts a forwarding number on your site. This allows you to attribute individual calls back to keywords and ads.

Mobile Text Ads
Mobile text ads look like standard text ads that you’d see on a desktop computer.

Mobile Image Ads
Image ads on mobile devices are similar to normal image ads that you’d see on a desktop computer, but they can link to your mobile website or to your app.

App Promotion Ads
App promotion ads come in a few different types and formats. The most common type is the app install ad, which are the easiest and most effective way to drive downloads. These ads run across search and display using the App/digital content ad format.

Call Only Ads
Call only ads only appear on devices that can make phone calls, and the ads are designed to encourage people to call.

Call Only Ads contain the following information:

• Business name
• Phone number
• Two lines of description text
• A display URL
• A verification URL

Setting marketing objectives can help get the best results for your campaigns. There are three types of marketing objectives:

• Build awareness
• Influence consideration
• Drive action

First we identify your marketing objective for the campaign and then select one or more sub-options. For example, you might identify the objective “Drive action” and then select “Call your business.”

Bid types on the GDN help you get the most value from your campaigns by setting just the right price for your ads. Here are the types of bids you can use:

• For “Search Network with Display Select” campaigns, Google automatically adjust bids on the Display Network to try to mirror your search performance.

• For “Display Network only” campaigns, you can set ad group default bids, custom bids or bid adjustments.

When you advertise on the Display Network, you can set your bids in different ways in your campaign:

Cost-per-click (CPC) bids: This option works best for Display Network campaigns that place a priority on driving visitors to your website. As with Search Network campaigns, you’re only billed when someone clicks on your ad.

Enhanced cost-per-click (ECPC): This is a bidding feature that raises your bid for clicks that seem more likely to lead to a sale or conversion on your website. Using ECPC can help you get more value from your ad budget.

Cost-per-acquisition (CPA) bids: This bidding option is suited to campaigns that are designed to encourage sales, sign-ups and other forms of conversion on your website. You are billed for each click on your ad, but AdWords automatically sets bids to reach a target CPA. Conversion Tracking must be set up on your website for CPA bidding to work.

Cost-per-thousand-impressions (CPM) bids: Use CPM bids for campaigns that focus on impressions. With this option, you are billed for every 1,000 impressions your ad receives, rather than for clicks on the ad.

Cost-per-view (CPV): Cost-per-view (CPV) bidding is the default way to set the price you’ll pay for your TrueView video ads. With CPV bidding, you’ll pay for video views and other video interactions (such as clicks on the call-to-action overlays (CTAs), cards, and companion banners), whichever comes first.

Display ads offer many options, so we take the time to experiment with different templates, colours, and content to get the best results. You want your ad to standout! Here is our process for creating effective display ads.

• Have a clear, highly visible call-to-action – Make it obvious where you want customers to click and what they’ll find when they do.
• Balanced ad content – Your ad text and images are balanced within the body of the display ad and within the overall ad size.
• Include prices, promotions, and exclusives – If you’ve got something special to offer, we’ll make sure your customers see it by using terms like special offers, coupons, discounts, promo codes, and bargains where relevant.
• Provide a relevant landing page – We’ll take a look at the landing page on your website that you’re ad is linking to and make sure to include a clear call-to action in your ad that takes viewers straight to that landing page.
• Test different ad sizes – We create three to four ads per ad group, trying out different messages with different images
• Go mobile – We make sure we show your image ads on all sorts of mobile devices, including smartphones, feature phones, and tablets.

So how does AdWords determine which ads should show? It all happens with a lightning-fast ad auction, which takes place every time someone searches on Google or visits a site that shows AdWords ads.

AdWords calculate a score, called Ad Rank, for every ad in the auction. Ad Rank determines your ad position and whether your ads are eligible to show at all. The ad with the highest Ad Rank gets to show in the top position, and so on.

Your Ad Rank has three factors:

1. Your bid – When you set your bid, you’re telling AdWords the maximum amount you’re willing to pay for a click on your ad. How much you actually end up paying is often less, and you can change your bid at any time.
2. The quality of your ads – AdWords also looks at how relevant and useful your ad and the website it links to are to the person who’ll see it. Our assessment of the quality of your ad is summarized in your Quality Score, which you can monitor—and work to improve—in your AdWords account.
3. The expected impact from your ad extensions and other ad formats – When you create your ad, you have the option to add additional information to your ad, such as a phone number, or more links to specific pages on your site. These are called ad extensions. AdWords estimates how extensions and other ad formats you use will impact your ad’s performance.

With cost-per-click (CPC) bidding, you’re charged only when someone is interested enough to click your ad and go to your website. You tell AdWords the most you’re willing to pay for a click on your ad (called the maximum cost-per-click bid), but you could be charged less.

You have control over your AdWords budget. You decide the average amount you want to spend each day. On the days when your ad is more popular, AdWords will allow up to 20% more of your average daily budget so you won’t miss out on those valuable clicks. But don’t worry, we’ll lower your maximum budget on other days so that, over the course of a month, your overall spend will average out to the limit you’ve set.
