PIP 001: 16 AdWords Settings To Avoid (Part 1)

Welcome to the Paid Insights Podcast.

I’m glad you’re here.

In the first episode, we are going through the first 7 AdWords settings to avoid (or use) when setting up your AdWords campaigns:

  • Campaign Type
    • Avoid the default setting here
  • Campaign Sub-type
    • Avoid the default here too – you miss out on:
      • Location Settings
        • Target people in the geographic area that best fits your business.
        • Are they nearby? Looking to visit? Searching from work?
      • Ad Scheduling
        • Target people based on time of day and day of week. For most businesses, I recommend you leave this setting alone until you conversion data comes in and you know what actually works.
      • Ad Extensionsadwords ad extension tab
        • These are easy to add to your campaigns and will make your ad larger, increase CTR, raise Quality Score and help convince your potential customers to click.
