5. Top Search Terms
One Advantage of Google Ads is using search ads. People rely on Google to search and find “services, solutions, products, etc”. So knowing the exact search terms and it’s effectiveness can leave big clues for the business owner and marketer to the best strategy.
If you work in an industry that is quite technical or has it’s own terms and lingo, advertising for more common terms might make more sense. We have found this to be the case in the medical and personal health field. The Top Search Terms report is a great way to spot trends and identify winning search terms directly from Google.
