created Ø Keywords seggregatted earlier from keyword planner were added to keywords section Ø Default Bid was set to Rs 20/ click

Optimisation Adding more Ad copies In order to optimise the campaign, we need to add more Ad copies. The more number of copies helps maintain Quality Score (QS) and Ad Rank. The Ad copy should follow following criteria when creating:
• Always use onr keyword in headline which you are bidding for • Mention Price, Place, Promotion • Use USPs in Ad copy • Should have a call to action
Also, to achieve better QS, we need to avoid following:
• Avoid repetition of words • No slang or abbreviations • Avoid negative promotions which is not relevant to the landing page

Keyword examination and bid strategy In order to achieve more impressions/ clicks, following strategy was implemented:
• Reduce the number of keywords in an Ad group to 15-‐20 • Pause/ remove keywords for which there are limited or no search • Add suggested keywords which have higher search or part of first page bid • Change keyword match type (Broad, Exact, Phrase, Broad with modifier) as required • Increase/ match Max CPC for the first page bid
