Tips for an effective ad copy
Your ad should respond directly to what the user is searching for.
If someone searches „buy wooden toys,“ your ad should clearly say „Buy Wooden Toys Online,“ not just „Children‘s Toys.“
The closer your ad copy matches the query:
- The higher your CTR
- The better your Quality Score
- The lower your cost per click (CPC) relative to the set max. CPC
Align your ad text with the specific landing page — don’t send all clicks to your homepage. You can use dynamic adsfor the purpose of linking keywords in one ad group to different URLs.
Headlines are the most visible part of your ad — they determine whether the user reads further.
Definitely include your main keyword in Headline 1 to show the user what are offering right away.
Best Practices
✅ Use Headline 2 for benefits, offers, or social proof. A competitive edge always does the trick.
✅ Experiment with different emotional triggers — urgency, trust, exclusivity.
✅ Keep them short, clear, and easy to read.
