SEARCH ADVERTISING – PAY-PER-CLICK
![Page 4: Search engine advertising Display advertising MBA 563 WEEK 5.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062309/5697bfbb1a28abf838ca0e74/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Search engine marketing recap – distinguishing the two
elements • Search engine optimization – managing
organic search engine placement by optimizing html pages and devising an inbound link strategy (covered in Week 6)
• Search engine advertising (Pay-per-Click)– Paying the search engines to get the results you
want (TODAY’S CLASS)
![Page 5: Search engine advertising Display advertising MBA 563 WEEK 5.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062309/5697bfbb1a28abf838ca0e74/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Paid listings
Organic listings
![Page 6: Search engine advertising Display advertising MBA 563 WEEK 5.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062309/5697bfbb1a28abf838ca0e74/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Paid search versus SEOPaid search• Results can be seen immediately
through increased traffic.
• But : no spending = no results
• Greater control over which keywords are most associated with their company, brands, products or services.
• Additional metrics are available, which means more detailed Web analytics that yield sophisticated knowledge from the data.
SEO• Results are gradual – can take months• But the results can persist –
maintaining position over time• Searchers find it more acceptable
than advertising• Can be complex and may require
external expertise• One process – many results (tends to
bring results across many search engines, not just one)

DO BOTH!
![Page 7: Search engine advertising Display advertising MBA 563 WEEK 5.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062309/5697bfbb1a28abf838ca0e74/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Internet advertising formats (IAB report for 2014)
![Page 8: Search engine advertising Display advertising MBA 563 WEEK 5.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062309/5697bfbb1a28abf838ca0e74/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Why is search engine advertising still so popular with marketers?
• Search engines allow marketers to bid on specific key words that trigger an ad when a user types those words into the search engine
• Bought on a Pay-per-Click basis (no click, no payment) – performance model means easy measurement of success
• Less consumer resistance that other forms of advertising – people are actually looking for those goods or services(but remember that CTR still quite low – about 2%)
• Print directory versus search advertising for SME?– Effectiveness can be directly measured– Speed of execution and “tweaking” of advertising copy– Speed of consumer response– Usually more cost-effective
![Page 9: Search engine advertising Display advertising MBA 563 WEEK 5.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062309/5697bfbb1a28abf838ca0e74/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Search engine advertising• Position is purchased as part of an advertising campaign -
guarantees instant visibility• While SEO and PPC advertising are separate techniques,
a well optimized page with good content will also influence the placement of a PPC ad (via Quality Score)
• The website owner has control over:– Position in search results (BUT not always complete control –
depends on AdRank/Quality Score in Google)– Keyword choice– Ad listing copy– Landing page– Geo-targeting– Daily budget and maximum cost-per-click
![Page 10: Search engine advertising Display advertising MBA 563 WEEK 5.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062309/5697bfbb1a28abf838ca0e74/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
How is the ranking decided in practice?Google uses a combination of the bid price or cost per click (CPC) and the ad relevancy or click-through rate (CTR) and the Quality Score of the landing page
– CPC x CTR = Google AdRank– Advertiser sets the maximum CPC per day– If an ad with a lower bid per click gets clicked more often, it will rank
higher.– Result - CPC can decrease as an ad becomes more popular, even
though a competitor may be prepared to bid more on the same keyword: more clicks = more money for Google.
– Ranking can be improved by:• Increasing the set daily CPC• Trying to improve relevancy (and therefore CTR) – How? … Tweak the ad text
• AdWords Video: Understanding Ad Rank and Quality Score
![Page 11: Search engine advertising Display advertising MBA 563 WEEK 5.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062309/5697bfbb1a28abf838ca0e74/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Keywords / key phrases
• Just as in SEO it is all about what people are actually typing into search engines
• Create a list of keywords / phrases just as you do for SEO– The big difference is that for search advertising
you can target as many as your budget will allow– Research the advertising that your keywords
actually trigger– Get sophisticated (think long-tail key words and
phrases as in SEO)
![Page 12: Search engine advertising Display advertising MBA 563 WEEK 5.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062309/5697bfbb1a28abf838ca0e74/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Elements of an AdWords campaign
• Google AdWords “Campaign”– Each campaign is made up of one or more
AdGroups – each relating to a separate “theme”, product group, marketing campaign etc
– An AdGroup consists of a set of keywords, bids, and individual advertisements that are managed together
![Page 13: Search engine advertising Display advertising MBA 563 WEEK 5.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062309/5697bfbb1a28abf838ca0e74/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
The elements of a basic text-based search engine advertisement
Headline (25 characters max)Click to go to destination landing page
Display URL (35 characters max) not clickable
Description: Two lines of text (35 characters per line max)Include a call to action
What makes up a text ad? (Google)

Think about your ads….
• Better ad text, better performance – some tips on writing better Adwords advertisements
![Page 15: Search engine advertising Display advertising MBA 563 WEEK 5.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062309/5697bfbb1a28abf838ca0e74/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Language and Geo-targeting
• Very cost-effective and highly targeting method of using search engine marketing – cost-per-click will vary according to the geographic target
• Especially useful for:– Small businesses whose target markets are in particular local
areas– Bricks and mortar businesses
• Allows you to target your advertisement to – Particular geographic locations– Particular languages
• Geo-targeting - Bob Nicholson (4 minutes)
![Page 16: Search engine advertising Display advertising MBA 563 WEEK 5.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062309/5697bfbb1a28abf838ca0e74/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Setting goals for an Adwords campaign
• Before you begin to create an Adwords group you need to set goals and metrics (performance indicators so you know you have succeeded)
• Adwords Video: Define Success, then Achieve it
![Page 17: Search engine advertising Display advertising MBA 563 WEEK 5.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062309/5697bfbb1a28abf838ca0e74/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Advertising metrics: ROI and CPA
• ROI = Return on investment• CPC = Cost per click (for performance-based search
ads)• CPM = Cost per thousand (impression) – for display
ads• CPA = Cost per (customer) acquisition
• Google Analytics and AdWords are very strongly tied together
![Page 18: Search engine advertising Display advertising MBA 563 WEEK 5.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062309/5697bfbb1a28abf838ca0e74/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Keyword targeted advertisementsalso served to sites other than the search
engine itself
• The keyword-targeted advertisements appear not just in the search engine results pages, but on the “content network”
• Major players in PPC search engine advertising– Google works with an affiliate network
• Google search engine• Google maps• Mobile devices• Content partner network• AdSense publisher network
• Google Adwords Advertising types – don’t forget that Google offers Display ads as well as PPC ads
![Page 19: Search engine advertising Display advertising MBA 563 WEEK 5.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062309/5697bfbb1a28abf838ca0e74/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Advertising for web publishers
• Google AdWords – for marketers
• Google AdSense – for publishers – Google’s content network - % of CPC paid– Ads are matched to page content, not search
terms – – Different ad formats available, including video ads
– Publishers can choose between PPC ads and Display ads
• How AdSense works
![Page 20: Search engine advertising Display advertising MBA 563 WEEK 5.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062309/5697bfbb1a28abf838ca0e74/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Click fraud
• PPC lends itself to click fraud because of its structure– Advertiser pays the advertising network, which in turn
pays the publisher
• Click fraud = clicking on a paid advertisement for a fraudulent or non-legitimate purpose– By a human, an automated script or a computer program –
an example
• The advertiser pays, the search engine company can be said to benefit (apart from paying out a % to the publisher)
![Page 21: Search engine advertising Display advertising MBA 563 WEEK 5.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062309/5697bfbb1a28abf838ca0e74/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Why click fraud?• Two main types of click fraud:
– Search engine click fraud: artificially raising a competitor’s marketing costs or exhausting their budget to remove them from their position in the listings (usually on very high cost or competitive key terms)
– Publisher click fraud: artificially raising a publisher’s income from AdSense
• Estimated 10% to 15% of ad clicks are fake, representing roughly $1 billion in annual billings (Business Week, 2006).
• Search firms have put tools in place to detect and prevent click fraud (but have still been sued by advertisers) Ad Traffic Quality Resource Center (Google)
• Mobile clicks made in error are now an increasing problem (fat finger syndrome)
• Click fraud is now a social media problem and next class we will look at the problem of fraud in display advertising
![Page 22: Search engine advertising Display advertising MBA 563 WEEK 5.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062309/5697bfbb1a28abf838ca0e74/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Advertising using other firms brand names as keywords
• Type in Molson beer and you might get an ad for Budweiser
• “Tofino hotel” sometimes gets you ads for Ucluelet hotels
• Legal in the US and Canada? Recent local case Vancouver Community College v Vancouver Career College (Burnaby)
• Ethical?
– Google Trademark Complaint process

DISPLAY ADVERTISING
![Page 25: Search engine advertising Display advertising MBA 563 WEEK 5.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062309/5697bfbb1a28abf838ca0e74/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Today’s class will cover:
• Display advertising• Demographic and behavioural targeting• ‘Native” advertising
![Page 26: Search engine advertising Display advertising MBA 563 WEEK 5.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062309/5697bfbb1a28abf838ca0e74/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Definition of display advertising
• "a form of online advertising where an advertiser's message is shown on a destination web page, generally set off in a box at the top or bottom or to one side of the content of the page."The Internet Advertising Bureau (IAB)
• “Interactive” display advertising means that the display ads actually do something in response to a user action
• Display advertising is usually purchased on the basis of the number of “impressions” (CPM) that an ad has (not on the basis of performance or CTR)
![Page 27: Search engine advertising Display advertising MBA 563 WEEK 5.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062309/5697bfbb1a28abf838ca0e74/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)

Internet advertising formats (IAB report for 2014)
![Page 29: Search engine advertising Display advertising MBA 563 WEEK 5.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062309/5697bfbb1a28abf838ca0e74/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Web site advertising formats• Display ads began in 1994 with static banners on Hotwired.com for AT&T
• Then in the search to catch people’s attention added animation, then moved to the use of “rich media”
• Interactive formats, including:– Banners– Buttons– Skyscrapers– Pop-ups, pop-unders, interstitials– Pre-rolls– Video
– For examples of web advertising formats, go to• DoubleClick Media Gallery
• IAB Guidelines for interactive advertising
![Page 30: Search engine advertising Display advertising MBA 563 WEEK 5.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062309/5697bfbb1a28abf838ca0e74/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
A couple of common sources to buy display ads
• Google – Adwords for Display
• Facebook – Advertising on Facebook
![Page 31: Search engine advertising Display advertising MBA 563 WEEK 5.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062309/5697bfbb1a28abf838ca0e74/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
How are ads bought and sold?• Shift from Ad Exchanges to “Programmatic
Advertising”• “Programmatic” ad buying typically refers to the use of
software to purchase digital advertising, as opposed to the traditional process that involves RFPs, human negotiations and manual insertion orders. It’s using machines to buy ads, basically.” Digiday
• The Evolution of Online Display Advertising (3 minute video from IAB)
• 200 milliseconds: The life of a programmatic real time bidding (RTB) ad impression (Media Crossing)
![Page 32: Search engine advertising Display advertising MBA 563 WEEK 5.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062309/5697bfbb1a28abf838ca0e74/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Problems with web advertising• Seen as more intrusive - consumers complain more about
web advertising than about other forms of advertising– Related to the nature of the medium
• Spyware and tracking cookies• Privacy concerns
– Social networking sites– Behavioural targeting and retargeting – may be subject to regulation– Use of cookies by advertising networks
• Opting out – Network Advertising Initiative• DoubleClick Opt-Out• Do Not Track initiatives
• Pop-up blockers and Ad Blockers• Very low click-through rates…..

How successful is online display advertising?
• Click-through rates are very low– Average is around 1 click every 1000 impressions– Research from Dave Chaffey on
variance in CTR for display ad types– Click-through rates on Facebook and Twitter (from Larry
Kim)
• Beyond demographics : Behavioural targeting and re-targeting are being tried in an effort to improve CTR
![Page 35: Search engine advertising Display advertising MBA 563 WEEK 5.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062309/5697bfbb1a28abf838ca0e74/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Types of ad targeting• Search targeting – based on terms typed into
search engine – marketers bid on search terms. Ads appear on SERPS. Costing is PPC
• Context targeting – based on textual content of the webpage on which the ad appears (often plus demographics). Costing is CPM (impressions)
• Behavioural targeting (and retargeting / remarketing) - monitors online behaviour and serves ads accordingly
![Page 36: Search engine advertising Display advertising MBA 563 WEEK 5.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062309/5697bfbb1a28abf838ca0e74/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
![Page 37: Search engine advertising Display advertising MBA 563 WEEK 5.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062309/5697bfbb1a28abf838ca0e74/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
Ad targeting
• Online advertising is creepy; it doesn't have to be. David Stillwell
• Facebook Ads – How advertisers target you with their ads online (Steve Dotto. 2015)
![Page 38: Search engine advertising Display advertising MBA 563 WEEK 5.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062309/5697bfbb1a28abf838ca0e74/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
Ad blockers – the people fight back• A report last month from Adobe and PageFair,
an Irish start-up that monitors ad blocking, projected that the software would lead to nearly $22 billion in lost revenue for advertisers this year.
• Roughly 200 million people globally now use ad-blocking software; global usage increased 41 percent in the last year.
• Apple’s latest OS for mobile iOS 9 will include ad blocking software

Ad fraud – Bots inflate monetized audiences by 5-50%
![Page 43: Search engine advertising Display advertising MBA 563 WEEK 5.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062309/5697bfbb1a28abf838ca0e74/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
Final thoughts about web display advertising……
• Advertising is less and less about interruption and trying to grab attention – make ads that people actually want to watch
• More and more about attempting to engage a willing audience
• Big shift to the use of mobile by users so advertisers are following
• Advertisers cautiously shifting to paid social media – useful survey from Neilsen (2013)
![Page 44: Search engine advertising Display advertising MBA 563 WEEK 5.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062309/5697bfbb1a28abf838ca0e74/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
Integrated campaigns
• Campaigns that use a variety of marketing tactics that work together in a campaign (just like your team project campaign)
• MIXX Awards 2014 – a variety of interactive advertising featured as part of integrated campaigns (get some ideas for your team assignment campaign from here!)

“NATIVE” ADVERTISING
![Page 46: Search engine advertising Display advertising MBA 563 WEEK 5.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062309/5697bfbb1a28abf838ca0e74/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)
“Native” advertising• Also known as “content marketing” – basically it is
paid content (marketing messages) masquerading as organic content on news and other publishing websites (Buzzfeed is often named as the primary example) – it differs from the traditional “advertorial” because it is designed to blend in with the “real” content
• Increased use of native advertising is a response to the fact that traditional display ads don’t work at all well – but it is very controversial
• Native Advertising Examples: 5 of the Best (and Worst)• Last Week Tonight with John Oliver: Native Advertising (HBO)
