55. Recommendations for future campaigns
Imagine you had additional budget, how would you use it, given your
campaign evaluation?
● I exchanged the keywords from the Awareness Ad group due to the
bid limit:
online college statistics
statistics class online college credit
learning basic statistics
statistics class online free
easy online statistics course
self paced online statistics course
statistics course description
foundations of machine learning
So in my next campaign I will raise the bid for the keywords and the
whole budget as well.
● The awareness Ad group didn’t receive enough clicks and
impressions, I believe it needs more time for the campaign running
to get more impressions and clicks as well and using keywords with
a high performance based on keyword planner.
● The targeting country may affect the results of spreading the ads for
a bigger number of potential customers.
