Low quality traffic can inflate your impressions bringing down your click through rate or eat away your advertising budget with hundreds of unwanted clicks. Below are several tips to improve your PPC traffic quality.
Identify Who Isn’t Your Customer
When trying to improve your traffic quality, the first step is to identify who isn’t your customer. If someone has little or no chance of becoming a customer you wish to filter them out.
Narrow Your List Of Broad Keywords
Broad keywords allow the SE to alter or replace your keywords with similar or relevant keywords utilised in a search query. This increases your exposure, but can dramatically lower your traffic quality if your ad is being displayed to people who aren’t potential customers.[ad#inline-ad]
When using broad keywords, you not only have to take into account what a search user types, you also have to account for the alterations made to your keywords by the SE.
Track your results and filter out unproductive keywords every few weeks.
Use Your Ad To Pre-Qualify Clicks
You’d be excited to see a click through rate of twenty percent, until you realize those clicks resulted in zero sales. When you’re getting a high number of clicks that don’t result in sales or conversions you require to filter out the “tire kickers”.
The most effective technique to filter out these unwanted clicks is to pre-qualify your traffic by adding a price into your advertisement.
When people see a price in an advertisement you filter out people who are only looking for free information, and you also filter out people who don’t have enough money to buy your offer.
Use Negative Keywords
Negative keywords are often the difference between a profitable and unprofitable campaign. It prevents your ad from being shown when the negative keyword is included with the search query. Negative keywords can lower your impressions, and improve your click through rate by filtering out search users that are not expected to do business with you.
