Tips and Tricks to Advertise Using Pay Per Click Search Engines

Always keep your profit margin in mind. If the average visitor to your site generates 
10 cents of profit for you (after counting all your costs!), and you can get the visitor for 
less than 10 cents, then you make money. So it's crucial that you be able to track your 
visitors and determine how much they are worth to you. 


Monitor the effectiveness of all your search terms. For example, you could have a different 
URL for each keyword. You can use this to track what search terms are actually generating 
income for you. You will find that some search terms are worth only a few cents while others 
might generate a dollar or more in income per click. Bid accordingly. Overture (GoTo) has a 
basic tutorial that demonstrates a couple of ways of making it easier to track the results of 
your search terms. 

Take some time to look at what others are doing before you jump into bidding. You want to be 
very careful when it comes to spending your money! 



Check the traffic count on keywords. Look for those with the lowest price that will bring visitors 
to your site. Sometimes certain keywords get overlooked and these can produce some nice 
traffic for your site. 

Pay per click search engines are an effective way to get the most out of your marketing budget. 
Take the time to explore this option further and you will be pleasantly surprised at the results you achieve.

Sex in Advertising

I do not agree with some of my professional colleagues who preach that we should not take ads seriously while basing their 
conviction on the slogan “creative light-heartedness and freedom of expression.” Advertising is a pervasive, powerful force 
that shapes attitudes and behaviour in today’s world that it would be foolhardy not to take commercials that seriously!

Promoting Your Business Offline

Offline promotion for your Internet business is important. Use traditional marketing channels and media. Incorporate your Website URL (web address), phone number, and mailing address into all of your printed and promotional materials


The Paradox of Advertising Creativity

Reaching the target audience for a brand should not necessarily require resorting to shocking or offensive material so as to stand out. Ads need to project the right image. Did you know that Volkswagen ads made fun of the car? A slogan for one of the ads was “ugly is only skin deep” because it has a lighter, more spirited image (Grace Butland 2000). The manufacturers started with a well-defined image and built their advertising around that image


Disruptions in Advertising

Ours is now a brave, new world, replete with alternatives to straightforward advertising. P&G recently embraced channel planning which is about putting media or communications planning at the front end of one’s campaign creation. The organization realizes that the first step in any marketing programme is to understand one’s consumers and how they might be reached rather than what might be said to them.
Channel planning is about trimming traditional media ad budgets and spending more on other marketing activities


Technology-driven Outdoor Advertising

Thanks to the advent of new true colour, ultra-bright LED technology which now makes it possible for outdoor electronic billboards to be capable of performing like a real outdoor television even under direct sunlight. The EVB is an attractive, animated giant outdoor advertising video screen which is noted for arresting people’s attention on a busy street whether pedestrians or in a car or bus or stuck in traffic. 


DISCONTINUITY IN ADVERTISING MEDIA

Our traditional media owners should find ever more pressure to prove their value in the marketing mix. Ambitious advertisers should learn to project marketing messages into the digital fabric of online games. When will the proverbial light bulb light up for Nigeria’s marketing communications industry? Why can we not take a cue from BMW, for example, which has looked for other media that are invited into consumers’ homes, e.g. the groundbreaking BMW films on the Internet? What if we experience the “TiVo” syndrome? TiVo pioneered digital video recorders (DVRs) in 1999 which make it possible for you to skip advertisements. What if our market is flooded with interactive televisions? Are these threats or challenges to our marketing communications industry?
Larry Light, global chief marketing officer at McDonald’s once remarked openly that broadcast-centric model was dead. According to him, “mass marketing today is a mass mistake.” Nigerian advertisers need to be more concerned than ever about getting value for money.

Meanwhile not far from my domicile, a satirical film on the Lagos Bar Beach was the subject of a forum. The irony inherent in the film is the fact that a stone’s throw from the once serene beach is a tourist edifice where we are shown films like Spiderman, Goldeneye, Austine Powers, Be Cool, XXX, etc. What most of us probably do not know is that these movies made millions of dollars even before they were ever released!

Advertising as a Threat to Innocence

Do you still remember our own immoral outdoor advertisement for a condom brand and the issues it generated? We are starting to find it difficult to protect our children from suggestive subjects and images that they are not emotionally and psychologically prepared to handle. Do we not owe our children the duty of protecting them and guarding their childhood? There is no doubt that things have changed from being decent and proper, to being indecent and morally corrupt.

Audience Motivation in Advertising

I find the market age concept interesting. In their research paper, “What to say when: Advertising Appeals in Evolving Markets,” Chandy et al submit that market age is crucial to understanding the inverse relationship between motivation and ability to process ads. For a particular product or service, one market is considered older than another if the product or service has been around and enjoyed advertising longer in the first market than in the second market. Market age therefore refers to the length of time that a product or service has been available and advertised in an identified market
