Yahoo! Search Marketing Techniques for Beginners
If you’re a beginner in the online search marketing arena, there a 4 basic techniques that might help you when you set up your Yahoo! Search Marketing campaign.
1: You will have to deposit some money into your account if you’re opening a new account. This money will pay for your first click charges and you must deposit at least $30. You will also have the opportunity to create a monthly budget or click-through bid amounts when setting up your campaign keywords.
2: Create short descriptions for all ads to ensure the core message of your ad is included when the ad shows up in the Yahoo search results. You’ll be limited to a certain amount of characters. You should also follow the editorial guidelines given by Yahoo! so that your ad goes live quickly and to provide users a high quality experience. To save time, log into your Yahoo! Search Marketing account and utilize the ‘insert keyword’ feature. This increases the relevancy of your ads as well as the click-through rates.
3: Be sure to use the reporting and keyword tools provided within the application. This will help guide you on what keywords you might want to use, what keywords are popular that you may not have thought up, what the current or suggested pay per click price might be, and to monitor how your campaigns are doing from month to month.
4: Last but not least, look at your competitor PPC ads via Yahoo! Search, see what they are advertising, what phrases they are using, what pages do they click-through to (is it a dedicated landing page or do they direct traffic to the homepage?). Careful monitoring of competitor sites is an essential part of any search engine marketing campaign.
