Take a closer look at the unprofitable keywords: • Keyword 4: music production companies CPA: $230 * 'music production companies' is clearly unprofitable: $50 profit - $230 cost = $180 lost per sale. * Removing this keyword may bring the ad group to a point of profitability. 'learn music production' is unprofitable, but there might be hope. * Users interested in learning music production may want to use your software. * It'd be a great idea to break this keyword off into a separate 'learn music production' ad group with supporting keywords, ad text, and a landing page. If you don't have time to fully optimize, testing lower CPC bids may bring the CPA below $50.

Determining Bidding Options based on Your Goal: GOAL = BIDDING OPTION IS * Customers to your website = * Ensure that customers see your message = ___ * Maximize conversions on your site

* REACH NEW CUSTOMERS: Capture someone's attention at different points in the buying cycle. oFor example, if you run an art supply store, you can catch a mom's eye when she's reading reviews about the best brands of washable paints, but before she puts her toddler in the car seat and heads out to buy. •SELECT WHERE ADS APPEAR: you choose more specifically where you want your ads to appear - select types of pages or specific websites for your ads - select audiences to show your ads to.

* Targets decided in advance of a campaign (e.g., "With $50 profit per conversion, $10 is a good target.") * Targets based on traditional rules of thumb (e.g., "Ad spend should be 9% of revenue.") * Targets based on other marketing channels (e.g., "E-mail and Search should have the same CPA.") While the approaches described above may achieve profitability, they don't take into account changes in sales volume at higher or lower targets. Measure profitability achieved, then try testing a few different targets to see if you can find a path to better results!
How can you raise your ads position? With and w/o affect $ (2)
* You can raise your maximum CPC bid = ad to show at a higher position * Improve the quality of your ads, keywords, and settings, without increasing costs. * Improve "Quality Score" - higher quality of ad = ad position
What's the Policy for an Ad to demonstrate "RELEVANCE" ? * Ads and Keywords *Products or services
* Your ads and keywords must directly relate to the content on the landing page for your ad. When users see your ad, they should be able to understand what kind of product, service or other content that they'll find on your site. * Products or services that are promoted in your ad must be reflected on your landing page. Also, see the advertiser claims policy.
What are some cases in which Manual CPM Bidding is
* Your campaign type is "Display Network only - Remarketing", not Google Search Network. * Your ads are designed to increase awareness, but not necessarily generate clicks or traffic. * You prefer the traditional industry metrics of CPM (cost-per-thousand impressions) campaigns. * You're targeting particular placements, not just keywords. (Combined with placement targeting, bidding for impressions can help ensure that your ads appear to a specific audience that will be interested in your ads.) * You're mainly interested in increasing brand awareness. Image ads and other multimedia formats often serve that purpose best, and these ad formats run on the Display Network. * Your message is in the ad itself, so you don't need people to click through to your site. This may apply to events (such as a television premiere) or political advertising.
To calculate this Quality Score, Google looks at a number of different things related to your account. The Factors you can help improve your Quality Score are:
* Your keyword's past click-through rate (CTR): How often that keyword led to clicks on your ad * Your Display URL's past CTR: How often you received clicks with your Display URL * Your account history: The overall CTR of all the ads and keywords in your account * The quality of your landing page: How relevant, transparent and easy-to-navigate your page is * Your keyword/ad relevance: How relevant your keyword is to your ads * Your keyword/search relevance: How relevant your keyword is to what a customer searches for * Geographic performance: How successful your account has been in the regions that you're targeting * Your ad's performance on a site: How well your ad's been doing on this and similar sites (if you're targeting the Display Network) * Your targeted devices: How well your ads have been performing on different types of devices, such as desktops/laptops, mobile devices and tablets - you get different Quality Scores for different types of devices

Here's the formula used in this example: (Total revenue - Total cost)/Advertising costs x 100 = Advertising ROI %

This results from the fact that the system is designed to make up for low traffic days by slightly exceeding your daily budget on higher traffic days, as long we never exceed your monthly charging limit.

How Conversion Tracking Works and is Set up? - Overview
Conversion Tracking works by adding a single snippet of HTML and JavaScript code to your webpage (without slowing it down, of course). Specifically, this snippet is placed on the page your customers see after they complete a conversion -- the "Thank you" page they see after a purchase, for example. Every time a customer clicks your ad on Google.com or selected Google Network sites, a temporary cookie is placed on the customer's computer so a conversion can be recorded when the customer reaches the conversion page.
TYPES OF CONVERSIONS Conversions (many-per-click) - Explain *when would this metric be useful?
Conversions (many-per-click) count a conversion every time a conversion is made after an AdWords click, within your chosen conversion window.

What is a "SHARED" Ad extension
EXISTING EXTENSION ALREADY HAVE - * If you've already created an ad extension in another campaign in your account, you can choose to use that existing extension (this is known as shared extensions) * You can also share multiple types of extensions. EXP _ call and offer extensions in one campaign, you can share extensions for both types in a new campaign.
Q: How often is Quality Score evaluated?
Each time someone does a search that triggers your ad.
What happens to the statistics of an ad that is "Resubmitted for Review" ?
Editing your ad is the same as deleting your original ad and creating a new one, so any statistics for that ad will be reset to zero when resubmitting your ad this way
Statuses that can allow your ad to run with limitations:
Eligible - Ad is still being reviewed, but it can show on Google search pages in the meantime. Approved (limited) - Ad can run, but not in all situations due to policy restrictions, such as those around trademark use and gambling ads. Approved (non-family) - Ad can run, but not in all situations, due to restrictions on content that we consider "non-family safe". Approved (adult) - Ad can run, but not in all situations, due to restrictions on adult content.
How does Google Decide which ad to show and thier order?
Every time an AdWords ad appears, it goes through what we call the ad auction, a process that decides which ads will appear and in which order
Example: Location of Interest When ads Geographic Targeting on Desktop
Example Matt is located in California and searches for New York restaurant on www.google.com. He sees ads targeted to customers in New York because he included New York in his search. However, if Matt decides to use google.fr to do his search, his location will be identified as France. He won't be able to see ads that are targeted to New York.
EXAMPLE of MANUAL CPC BIDDING
Example Although your website sells a wide range of art supplies, you're most interested in selling paint brushes. With manual CPC bidding, even if your ad group has 15 keywords, you can choose to set a higher bid for only the keyword "paint brushes", which will apply whenever that keyword triggers your ad.
EXAMPLE - Reach people searching for or viewing pages about your targeted location
Example Consider your Napa vineyard again. You decide you want to reach any people in the U.S. who are searching for wine from California. A customer in New York, California, or any other part of the U.S. who searches for california wine can now see your ad. However, if a customer in California searches only for wine, she won't be able to see your ad. And suppose a Parisian searches for california wine? Since he isn't located in the same country as the targeted location, California, he won't be able to see your ad either.
EXAMPLE - Focus on Clicks
Example If you run a hiking club in Cumbria, you might want to bid a lot for direct-hit keywords like "Cumbria hiking" and a different amount for broader keywords like "hiking maps".
EXAMPLE: MONTHLY CHARGING LIMIT
Example If your budget is US$10 per day throughout an entire month, the maximum you'd be charged is US$304 (US$10 daily budget x 30.4 average days per month) in that billing cycle
EXAMPLE - Using Keywords/Search terms
Example If your campaign has the keyword digital cameras on broad match, the report may show that your ads appeared for the search query "digital cameras London". If your business sells to people in London, you could add this phrase as a keyword in your account. If you don't serve London, you could add London as a negative keyword to make sure that your ad stops appearing on that search. By adding irrelevant search terms as negative keywords, you can help improve your click-through rate.
Example- If have monthly advertising budget, how to find daily budget?
Example Let's say you normally spend $304 per month on advertising. To figure out your daily budget, you'd divide $304 by 30.4 and would get a daily budget of $10. Using this example, here's how you'd figure out your daily budget: 304 / 30.4 = $10 per day (Monthly budget / Average number of days per month = Daily budget)
EXAMPLE - AD EXTENSON
Example Let's say you own a bicycle repair shop in Tokyo and Rie, a customer riding a bicycle near your store, gets a flat tire. When she searches for "bicycle repair" on her mobile phone, she'll see your ad with a location extension and phone number. She can click the phone number to call you right away for help, or click your address to find her way to your location.
What does Smart Pricing mean?
Google may automatically reduce your CPC bids on pages on the Display Network that are less likely to turn into an actionable business result.
Location Extensions - How to use Use location extensions to highlight your business address
Example Let's say you own a bicycle repair shop in downtown Chicago. With location extensions, a customer near your store who searches for bicycle repair shops can see your ad, along with your full address and phone number -- and head your way with his flat tir
EXAMPLE - Brand Awareness
Example Say that you work for a high-end Italian car manufacturer. You could create a video ad to showcase the new features of your latest model, the SuDuperRossa, and choose to run that ad only on websites for owners of high-performance cars, since they're part of your target demographic.
EXAMPLE - of Ad with good Quality Score
Example Suppose that Sam is looking for a pair of striped socks. And let's say that you own a website that specialises in socks. Wouldn't it be great if Sam types "striped socks" into Google search, sees your ad about striped socks, clicks your ad and then lands on your web page where he buys some great new striped socks? In this example, Sam searches and finds exactly what he's looking for. That's what we consider a great user experience, and that's what can earn you a high Quality Score. What's more, relevant ads tend to earn more clicks, appear in a higher position and bring you the most success.
Example of Contextual Targeting
Example Suppose you've created an ad group to advertise gourmet cookies, and it includes keywords like "dark chocolate chip cookies" and "nutella chocolate chip cookies." We use contextual targeting to identify and place your ad on Google Display Network sites that share the same themes. That means that your ad might appear on webpages about gourmet chocolate desserts, discussion groups for baking enthusiasts, or a newsletter about dessert recipes.
EXAMPLE - VIEW PERFORMANCE BY LOCATION
Example You have a campaign that targets the entire country of Japan, but you're located in a different country. By viewing your geographic performance data, you confirm that your ads are getting impressions in cities throughout Japan. Also, you find that your ads do better in Tokyo and Kyoto, so you decide to come up with a new advertising strategy that targets those areas.
Example - Conversion Tracking
Example You have a website for your clothing store, and when customers submit their orders online, they see a "Thank you for your purchase"! Pages: You want to see which of your keywords - "blue jeans" or "buy designer jeans" - leads to more purchases, so you set up Conversion Tracking. First, you get a single snippet of code from AdWords that contains HTML and JavaScript. Then, you paste that code snippet in the HTML for the "Thank you for your purchase"! Pages: Soon, you start to see that customers who click on your ad with "buy designer jeans" as a keyword buy a lot of jeans. Meanwhile, you see that a few people click on the ad with "blue jeans" as a keyword, but none of them make a purchase. So, you decide to stop investing in the "blue jeans" keyword and put more money towards the "buy designer jeans" keyword, resulting in more purchases and a better return on your investment.
EXAMPLE OF AUTOMATIC CPC BIDDING
Example You have a website that sells a variety of art supplies, and your main goal is to bring more customers to your site. You have a set amount that you want to spend on advertising each month, and there isn't a particular product that you want to emphasise the most. Automatic CPC bidding lets you decide the overall amount of your budget, then we'll find you the most customers based on that.
EXAMPLE - SOCIAL ANOTATIONS
Example You own a restaurant and create a Google+ page for your business. You also create an AdWords campaign with some ads. When 100 people follow your restaurant's Google+ page, your ads show a social annotation that says your page has 100 followers.
EXAMPLE OF Use Location Specific Landing Pages when refining Geographic Areas
Example You're a real estate agent and your website has listings for apartments for sale throughout Florida. If a customer is searching for apartments in Miami, you'll want to send them to your landing page with Miami apartments, rather than Orlando apartments.
EXAMPLE - CPM BIDDING - COST-PER-IMPRESSION
Example You're giving a free concert in Paris, and want to get as many music lovers to come as possible. You're running a campaign with vibrant image ads that share the date, time and location of the event - everything that a rock fan needs to know to turn up. As long as people see your ad, they'll know your whole message. CPM bidding can help you get it in front of as many eyes as possible.
EXAMPLE - Reach people in, searching for, or viewing pages about my targeted location
Example Your Napa vineyard wants to reach people who are in California, as well as anyone in the U.S. who is interested in wine from California. By using the default setting to target either physical location or by locations that people show interest in, your ads can appear for people in California, as well as people throughout the U.S. searching for california wine.
EXAMPLE - CPC
Example o If think it's 25 cents to have someone visit your website, you can set US$0.25 as your max CPC. o Pay a maximum of US$0.25 when a person reads your ad and clicks it, Pay nothing if they don't click.
Give example how time zone can affect you biling cycle?
Example: Budget set 24-hr schedules • Google Recommends set Local time zone so budget cycle ends when your day ends • If Set Up in ERROR - Wrong Time zone o time zones may be changed up to one time over the life . To request such a change, please contact us.
EXAMPLE of CPA Target?
Example: If a remote-control helicopter sale is worth $50 profit and any CPA below that is profitable, a $10 CPA target can help achieve a consistent $40 profit-per-sale (after advertising costs).
EXAMPLE - Scaling by Performance
Example: If you're running a profitable campaign with an average cost of $750/day, you don't need a daily budget limit of $10,000/day. A daily budget limit between $1,000-1,500/day allows for flexible traffic growth while helping protect you from dramatic increases in spend.
When to Exclude regions that don't perform well when refining Location targeting
Exclude regions that don't perform well If you're consistently getting clicks with a low conversion rate from certain regions, or clicks from regions where you don't want your ads to show, consider excluding the regions from your targeting.
EXAMPLE: "LOCATION OF INTEREST" If you searched for France hotel while located in the United States, You won't see ad if? You could still see ads if? When ads Geographic Targeting on Desktop
Exp: If you searched for France hotel while located in the United States, *You won't see ads targeted to France even though your search showed interest in France. • (You could still see ads for French hotels that are targeted to the United States, though!) However, say you're in the United States and search for France hotel on google.fr, the French domain. We'll identify your location as France because of the domain, and you'll be able to see ads targeted to France.
Google Restricts the following coded behaviors:
Extra calls: Ad code cannot make external server calls for additional JavaScript or other functionality. All functionality must be localized to the code itself. Tracking bypass: Ad behavior cannot be changed to avoid or eliminate the AdWords redirect URL. Destination changes: Ads should direct users to a web page with the appropriate destination URL. It should not open the destination URL within the ad iFrame itself. Integrated audio: Ads may contain user-initiated audio only. Cursor behavior: Ads may affect or change a user's mouse cursor (arrow) within the parameters of the ad, but the user should be able to stop this interaction if it's non-user initiated or it should auto-stop after 5 seconds. Random numbers: Ads may not include code that generates or uses random numbers. Other disruptive behaviors: Ads may not be designed or coded to circumvent the basic and usual AdWords flow. This includes (but is not limited to) the ad being displayed normally to users, Google registering the impression, and a click directing the user to the destination URL indicated by the advertiser in their AdWords account. For more details on Flash, including detailed technical specifications, refer to the official Flash help center.

Landing page experience refers to how good Google think someone's experience will be when they get to your landing page (the web page that they end up on after clicking your ad)

This would help you target all pages about cooking and recipes on the Google Display Network related to cookies, regardless of whether your exact keywords appear on the page.

EXAMPLE of Language Targeting
Let's say that you want to target French and Italian speakers with an ad campaign for your chocolate croissants.

CPC bid below £1.

You decide to use physical location exclusion to keep your ads from appearing for people in Kansas who search for ski equipment.
