What data should I use to set up successful paid search?
Choosing the right data is the key to effective targeted advertising. To make your campaign as successful as possible, consider the following factors:
1️⃣ Demographic data
Demographic data, such as age, gender, location, and income level, are the main characteristics of your audience. Using this data, you can accurately target ads to those people who are most likely to be interested in your product or service. For example, advertising campaigns for younger audiences can be targeted to social media platforms such as Instagram or TikTok, while older audiences may interact more with ads on Facebook or LinkedIn.
2️⃣ Behavioral data
Behavioral data includes interests, preferences, online purchase history, and content interaction. This data helps you understand what products or services your target audience might be interested in. For example, if your potential customers frequently visit health and fitness websites, advertising sporting goods or healthy eating will be more effective.
3️⃣ Website traffic data
Information about which pages your audience visits, how much time they spend on the site, and what actions they take allows you to better understand their needs and interests. Use this data to create personalized advertising campaigns. For example, if users frequently visit a page with a certain product but don’t make a purchase, you can set up retargeting to remind them of this product with additional offers or discounts.
4️⃣ Previous actions
Analyze user actions on your website, such as adding products to the cart, viewing certain pages, or filling out forms. This data allows you to offer them the most relevant offers. For example, if a user adds a product to the cart but doesn’t complete the purchase, you can send them a reminder or a special offer to motivate them to complete the purchase.
5️⃣ Psychographic data
This is information about the values, attitudes, lifestyle, and personal characteristics of your audience. Psychographic data helps to create a deeper and more individualized portrait of the consumer, which allows you to customize ads that resonate on an emotional level. For example, if your audience values environmental friendliness, you can emphasize the environmental aspects of your product or business.
6️⃣ Geographic data
The location of the audience can significantly affect the effectiveness of an advertising campaign. Geographic data allows you to customize ads for specific regions, cities, or even neighborhoods. This is especially important for local businesses that serve a specific area. Use this data to make your advertising messages more relevant to your local audience.
7️⃣ Social media data
Analyze user activity on social media, their interaction with your content, participation in discussions, and mentions of your brand. This data helps you understand how your brand is perceived by your audience, what topics your potential customers are interested in, and what content formats are most engaging.
8️⃣ Competitor data
Researching competitors and their advertising strategies will help you understand what works in your industry. Analyze competitors’ advertising campaigns, strengths, and weaknesses to find new opportunities for your business. Use this data to create a unique offer that will make you stand out in the market.
