Step 3: Taking action by optimising keywords

•  No longer just about clicks and cost-per-click

For example, when we first ran the campaign, the keyword “CCTV” generated the most number of clicks. We needed to find out if this keyword was effective in producing qualified leads. On closer inspection, we saw that the keyword “CCTV” was performing poorly in terms of bounce rate and conversion rate.

43

Page 44: Breakout   GoMeasure (sg and kl) - google analytics 101 - clicktrue.ppt

Google Confidential and Proprietary

Step 3: Taking action by optimising keywords

To help optimise the performance of this keyword, we analysed the actual search query used by visitors that contributed to goal conversions. For example, visitors who searched for “CCTV Singapore” and clicked on the client’s ads were more likely to sign-up and convert.

Step 3: Taking action by optimising keywords

Through the use of better defined keywords, such as with appropriate keyword matching, we obtained:

Conversion Rate – increase from 1.55% to a range of 1.96% to 25% and a corresponding increase in ROI of at least 66%.
