Why Should you Use Single Keyword Ad Groups?

More relevance and a lot more focus!

Single Keyword Ad Groups were what every paid search manager dreamt of but just couldn’t justify the time involved to create them!

As the Google Ads Quality Score became the hottest keyword in search marketing, so did the need to create more targeted groups. These targeted groups of keywords were designed to promote an ad create that was tailored to not only your keywords, but to the landing page you sent your clicks to.

Google increased their focus on relevance and search marketers needed to pick up their game. It was a significant development in Google’s AdWords performance strategy.

According to Google:

Quality score is an estimate of the quality of your ads, keywords and landing pages. Higher quality ads can lead to lower prices and better ad positions.

Let me highlight….

Lower prices.

Better Ad Positions.

Who wouldn’t throw a little attention towards Quality Score with these benefits!

But why should you use Single Keyword Ad Groups?

It’s a simply theory really. If you great a group of keywords, that contains only one keyword and you develop an ad that speaks directly for that one single keyword, you cannot question the relevance between the keyword and the ad.

Then if you have the ability to create a specific landing page that dynamically generates the keyword into the page copy, you can expect to Quality Score to be on its way to 10/10 and you can enjoy the benefits of an increased CTR (for example; a reduction in your average CPC!)

This is all good in theory but who’s got the time to develop a single keyword ad group campaign in Excel unless you are moon lighting as a developer.
