Is there way to have several AdWords Ad for the same keyphrase?

Hi Dmitri,

This is not possible, only one ad could show from one domain as per Google adwords policy. As you mentioned that no body is bidding on your brand name then what is the use of showing 4 ads? I also assume than in organic also you are the on top.

If you want to occupy all the position for your brand name . create profile on social media sites like fb, twitter, linkedin etc to appear on all positions.

Thanks

Checked the basics - all good as far as I understand.

It is new campaign, running for less than a week.

Now, there is a problem with CTR - the amount of impressions is very low, and there are no clicks so far, so CTR is 0%.

I will do some optimizations for sitelink descriptions.

Thanks for your help

The whole reason I'm doing it is for pushing ROR down - please read P.S. part of my original message.

They do have various social media profiles, branch websites and other directories ranking for their name, but they all rank below ROR - that's the issue.

Yeah new campaigns along with brands with relatively little awareness can be difficult in the beginning, thats why bidding high is important to make sure you are appearing on all relevant branded searches and ensuring your click through rate picks up as quickly as possible. It can still take some time though depending on search volume.

You could consider some moves that might encourage more brand awareness and through that potential branded search queries (newsletter, facebook campaigns etc). Good luck!

I'm bidding $10/click, which is (I think) is ridiculously high, no?

Auto bid by AdWords was $0.80.

Here is another problem I have - ad relevancy. It says it's below average, which is bad. How can I increase it? I thought since it's branded campaign, it should be a problem.

Hi Dimitrii,

$10 is more then enough!!

For the ad relevancy, which part of the ad is it flagging? The expected click through rate will be low until you start getting the click throughs, but if it is flagging either the ad relevance or the landing page experience then this is something you should investigate.

If it is ad relevance then you might need to split your keywords into more tightly focused ad groups and make the ads very specific for each variation/ad group. This depends a lot on how people search for the specific brand and if there is any volume for the variations or not. You might also run into problems if the brand is similar to another brand name or product. In this case again you need to be very focused on the wording of the ads and try to remove potentially unrelated searches for the other brand through negative keywords.

If landing page experience is the problem then look initially into the basics (make sure title / headers etc properly express the brand name, the page loads quickly etc).

For branded ads I usually would expect to have a minimum 6 or 7/10 quality score pretty much right away and after the click throughs pick up you should usually be 9 or 10/10. If you are at 5 or lower after a few days of actually getting some clicks you should definitely look into why that is. Check this article for a good rundown of ways to improve quality score if it is an issue.

It's ad relevance part. The overall QS is 6/10. There are no clicks yet. As for ad groups and keywords - I only target one phrase - exact match for company name, therefore there is no really way to regroup keyphrases

Any thoughts?

[LynnPatchett]

I think you might have to be a bit patient and let the system get a bit of data in. If you are using exact match and are mirroring that in the ad texts then you should be good and might just need to wait a bit. You could try putting in a couple of ad variations tweaking bits of text, especially the headline, but really on exact match there is not much variation that you probably haven't already covered!

Thanks, man!
