How to test your Google Ads ads

Google Ads can cost a lot of money. For that reason, it is very important to test your ads and your keywords. If you don't test your ads, you will waste a lot of money.

Test your ads to find the best performing ads and keywords. This will lead to more sales and lower costs.

1. Why testing your ads is so important

If you do not want to waste your advertising budget, then you have to test the conversion rate of your Google Ads ads and keywords.

The conversion rate is the number of people that click on your Google Ads ad divided by the number that actually purchase. The conversion rate enables you to determine the ROI (return on investment) of your keywords, i.e. how much profit you gain per advertising dollar.

A Google Ads ad that gets many clicks isn't necessarily a good ad

The ads for your most expensive keywords can attract a large number of visitors. If the ads have a low conversion rate, you will pay a lot for each click but you won't get enough sales.

Testing your ads enables you to find the ads and keywords with the highest conversion rate. This enables you to get the maximum return on investment for every advertising dollar that you spend.
