As far as advertising goes, Google ads work – there’s no doubt about that and it can have an instant impact. Some companies rely entirely on Google AdWords for their inbound marketing and as a company, google made $79.38 billion in revenue in 2016 alone! And that was a £7 billion increase on 2015 figures!
We implement, manage and use google ads for a variety of our customers at Silvertoad and all with success. However, you do need to be cautious as it can cost a lot of money and if you’re not careful, things can run away and leave you with a big bill! Many people try to manage google Ads themselves with google’s support, however, the issue with this can be that google are there to sell their service and you can easily be led to spending more than you need to. That’s where we come in and help optimise campaign’s to suit you, not google!
