The ads should provoke people to click on your ads. The landing page should be appropriate; people don’t want to waste time searching for the content they are looking for. Your ads should be placed at the right place and one of the toughest decisions is how much money should be bid on each ad.

Advertise your Websites on Google
Google has an advertising system called Google Adwords, which allows you to advertise your web site under “Ad” or “Ads” on the 1st page of Google for the services or products you offer. You most likely have seen these ads. They are usually at the top or on the right-hand side of a Google search page.
The cost works on a PPC (Pay Per Click) system. So you only pay Google when someone clicks on your website advert and go into your website. We are Google Adwords Certified.
Understanding Google Adwords
Here is how it works. For example, you sell computer screens in East Africa.
If a user searches for the keywords “computer screens in Tanzania” on Google, they will see on the first page of the results, both natural rankings and Ad links. Your Google Adwords advert will appear under Ads, like the one displayed on the right. The top 2 or 3 links are usually displayed in a pink/ cream block at the top and the other on the right hand side of the page and you can see the yellow “Ad” or “Ads” links
When the user clicks on your advert to go to your web site, then you pay for that click. The cost varies depending on the competition, how many other web sites in Tanzania and Kenya there are that also want to be displayed for those keywords on front page. The more competitors there are the more expensive it is, and Google sets the price to be on front page according to the competition and what they have decided to pay per click. Lets say, for example, that the cost per click for top position of front page is 4,000 Tsh, then what you decide you want to pay will determine where Google places you on the front page. So if you bid 3,000 Tsh you might be second from the top or if you bid 2,000 Tsh then you might be third. However you are still advertising on the first page of Google. If however your ad is in position 5 at a 1000 Tsh cost, you can decide to spend more than your competitors per click to get either to position 1 or closer to it.
So what this means is that ultimately, you decide what you want to pay per click, but your bid also determines where you are displayed. If we use the example above and you decide to bid for only 1000 Tsh a click, your ad might only be displayed on the 2nd or 3rd page of Google. You can also choose in which countries your ads should be displayed, so in the example above you would only set it for any of these East African countries (Tanzania, Kenya and Uganda)
We make use of Google Adwords because it is very effective. And besides, getting people to click on your site also increases your web sites traffic and therefore ultimately its ranking on Google. We are managers for Google Adwords, so we optimize campaigns in a way that they are cost efficient and yet still displayed on page one of Google. If you are thinking, “what if someone is going to click on my ad all day long, it might cost me millions”, that’s not the way it works. You decide a daily budget before cut-off and Google has a system in place to prevent the same user from clicking on your ad all the time, so Google will only charge you once if the same person clicks on your ad more than one time.
