Pay-Per-Click advertising is confusing at the best of times. Google constantly changes the rules for AdWords, display ads suffer from banner blindness (and horrible design) and don’t get me started on Facebook not letting you point your ads to your landing pages.
On the plus side, if done right, PPC can generate instant results compared to other methods like SEO which take time to climb the rankings.
The infographic below is here to help you wade through all the ******** and start maximizing your ad spend.
Plus we’ve dissected the best parts for you into bite-sized Tweetables at the end so you can share your new found wisdom.
Newsflash
You’ll get higher conversions by using highly targeted landing pages, and for AdWords you’ll be able to massage your landing page to give you a higher quality score and lower cost-per-click. #justsayin

Oli, I normally think you practically walk on water with your content, but why the focus on PPC. Isn’t PPC gasping its last ready to be overtaken by remarketing?

Well thank you Chris. I don’t see paid search going anywhere soon, and in fact remarketing (or re-targeting) is still a paid service, albeit a slightly different model (would’ve been nice to see it in the graphic).
Remarketing is often seen as obtrusive – with people feeling like they are being stalked by banners, but the results (for some) can be very good.
Thanks for bringing it up.
Cheers

FWIW, you can’t capitalize your display URL in AdWords anymore (at least before the slash). That aside, neat little post!
Oli Gardner
Thanks for the tip Aaron.

Hi Oli
Good piece; seems like we published 2 similar infographics within a few hours of each other! Although they focus on different aspects of the ads. Some great advice in yours; although one thing is that Google disallowed caps in the domain of the display URL back in 2011.
I would love your thoughts on my PPC ad writing info graphic:http://deepfootprints.co.uk/online-marketing/ppc/how-to-write-the-best-ppc-ads-infographic/

I’ve heard that a couple of times now, great for people to know (re: the caps).
