It should be understood that the indicated rate may be less. For example, if you set 10 rubles per click, and your competitor 5 rubles, then you will pay 5.01.

Experts recommend paying attention to the quality of ads. Adwords will eventually rank it on a ten-point scale. This will allow you to analyze the effectiveness of advertising, increasing it depending on the indicators of the resource.

Google also allows you to use the advanced ad format. It is recommended to use it, because in this way the visitor gets more information about you, and accordingly, the chance of sales increases. Do not forget to indicate the phone number, address, link to a specific size, etc.

Remember that search advertising is just a text message, but it can be varied with the help of graphics, videos, etc.
