13 Techniques To Increase Conversion Rate With PPC Campaigns
Use Conversion Tracking
As a digital marketer trainer lot of Pay Per Click professionals has opted for the SEM classes in Delhi, there is one common issue which I had experienced that they don’t know:
Before making campaigns you have to put the conversion codes on your thank you page, signup page etc. In order to track the conversion keywords easily.
PPC Beginners don’t use this Conversion codes.
This is the biggest mistake If you don’t know which keywords are performing good and which are not then how can you manage campaigns in future.
Optimize Your Landing Page With Targeting Keyword

Choose "Optimise For Conversion" in Ad Delivery Option
While making PPC campaigns for your service or products choose "Optimize for conversion: Show ads expected to provide more conversions" Option from Ad Delivery : Ad Rotation, frequency, capping.
If you check this option then your ads will receive more leads and calls rather then more clicks. It will help to improve ROI

Remarketing means retargeted your visitors who visited your site. When your readers and customers leave your blog or page without any conversion or leads.
Then re-marketing campaign will help you to reconnect /follow them by showing creative display banners ads, video ads, text ads etc across their smartphones, pads, desktops, laptops etc.
