What Are Google Ads?
Google Ads, formerly called Google Adwords, is an online advertising platform created by Google specifically to help businesses reach their target audience and drive sales.
Essentially, advertisers can create targeted campaigns within Google Ads, bidding on select keywords, topics & relevant placements that resonate with their objectives to optimise conversion gains & ROI metrics even in competitive niches.
Whenever someone searches online for something related to the keywords your business has targeted (or browses around other popular digital platforms like YouTube or Gmail inbox).
They will likely see ads relevant to your business. This puts your brand in the foreground, enabling only the most effectively matched prospects to advance through sales funnel journeys aimed at converting them.

We work with precision and accuracy, assisting clients in capturing consumer intent across any vertical. So that businesses can stay ahead of the curve and achieve maximum ROI.

How Google Ads Work?
Google Ads is a pay-per-click (PPC) advertising platform that enables businesses to display ads on Google search result pages, as well as other sites and platforms in the Google Display Network.
Advertisers are charged only when their ad is clicked by a user, through a bidding process against keywords for specific target audiences.
Alphabet’s machine learning systems determine the maximum bid and ad placement during the auction process based on expected click-through rates, relevance & engagement factors aligned against the targeted audience.
Generally speaking, advertisers create campaigns within Google Ads and structure them around ad groups that include relevant keywords or topics based on their goals, with the scale factor being crucial in reaching desired target audience size while keeping a positive ROI in check.
Google rewards advertisers who align most closely with what users search for. Providing higher scores to more engaging ads that reflect optimised creative design and messaging flow. This promotes high-intent behaviour demonstrated by targeted audience outreach efforts concurrently.
Given the importance of matching intent, combined with working knowledge of advertising targeting options to reach specific individuals even at different funnel stages.
Our team at ROI Boffins leverages data analysis rigorously to anticipate clients’ unique requirements. We optimise performance consistently, allowing clients to focus more on running their businesses. While experiencing breakthrough growth & returns from digital advertising efforts seamlessly with peace of mind.

Why Choose Google Ads (Adwords)?
At ROI Boffins, we specialise in helping South African businesses succeed with digital marketing strategies.
We have seen first-hand how Google Ads can transform a business's online presence and increase its leads and sales in less time.
But before we dive deep into how choosing Google Ads could change your life as a passionate entrepreneur driving economic growth in our beautiful country, let me start by sharing an amusing anecdote with you:
When we started running campaigns for clients using Google Adwords in 2010, many business owners were surprised at how high their ads would end up on search results pages.
They would ask, “Is this only happening because we’re working with you?” To which we’d chuckle and reply, “Nope! This is the power of Google and smart targeting!”
Okay, now that we’ve shared our story with you, here are some reasons why choosing Google Ads for your online advertising needs can take your business to tremendous success:
Benefits of Google Ads
Targeting The Right People
Google Adwords allows you to target particular audiences based on demographics such as location, interests (for example, South Africa vs England soccer fans), and behaviour (online shopping habits).
Cost-Effective
Advertising on platforms like TV or radio can be cost-prohibitive for most small modern-day businesses with big dreams. But Google Ads is the happy sauce —it provides a budget-friendly way for online advertising while being practical enough to reach the right people over time.
Reaching More People
Google Ads places your business in prime visibility spots, especially if people are searching for terms directly related to what you offer. This enables you to reach the right customers at the right time when they are actually looking for your product or service, which makes search engine traffic so
Measurability
With detailed performance metrics, you can track the success of your campaigns and adjust accordingly to maximise efficiency. This makes it easier to see what's working well (and not so well) for your campaigns and change strategies accordingly.

How Our Google Ads Service Works
At ROI Boffins, we take care of everything from creating eye-catching ad copy and deciding on keywords to target to monitoring progress with an eagle eye for detail.
We use data-driven insights from analytics to determine which campaigns work best for our clients to get the best return on ad spend (ROAS). Our experienced team ensures every campaign is optimised consistently for peak performance.

How much does a Google ad cost in South Africa?
The cost per click (CPC) on a Google Ad depends on various factors such as competition levels, target audience location or industry-specific pricing models.
However, the minimum spend requirement is R50 ($3 in USD currency) per day, as set by our friends over at Google. It is important to remember this differs from what you will be billed each day but instead marks the minimum amount required if ads get served.
Having said that, many local variables come into play, which may impact pricing. Making it advisable before starting any campaign to talk with us here at ROI Boffins. We can advise further based on strategy, market circumstances and business specific needs.
What’s the difference between Google Ads and SEO?
Google Ads is about instant visibility via advertising, while Search Engine Optimization (SEO) is a long organic play for gaining more visibility through improved website content on multiple search engines such as Google, Yahoo or Bing.
While both strategies work towards improving online presence and increasing engagement with your audience, there is a clear distinction in the way each goes about it.
With Google Ads, you leverage keyword-specific targeted ads to attract an interested audience. While SEO builds gradually over time by improving one’s website and creating quality content – this helps websites rank higher in organic SERPs.
Types of Google Ads
Search Ads
Search Ads are text-based ads that appear on search engine results pages like Google's Search Engine. They appear at the top or bottom of Google search results pages and target specific keyword queries.
These ads frequently contain high-intent keywords and target customers when searching for specific products or services.
With our expertise in keyword research, we help our clients to deliver relevant ads to the right audience to achieve their goals.
Video Ads
Video ads can be displayed via YouTube using a variety of formats, such as skippable in-stream ads, non-skippable in-stream ads, bumper ads or discovery ads.
YouTube Ads help attract customers while they're watching videos or performing searches on YouTube, or browsing websites within the Display Network.
Video is one of the fastest-growing digital advertising formats. YouTube is a top-rated social channel with over 2 billion monthly global users.
With YouTube Ads, businesses can leverage Google's machine learning to tailor their campaigns to different user groups based on factors such as search history and interests.
Display Ads
Shopping Ads
Shopping Ads are another powerful addition to any retailer's marketing toolkit, especially while showcasing product catalogues in a befitting way via Google Merchant Center.
By automatically displaying price comparisons and the option to filter features that customers may be interested in, sellers stand a better chance of converting sales.
Our expertise with custom-developed feeds for shopping campaigns allows us to tailor each campaign to get maximum returns & traffic by comparing analytics reports after optimising campaigns towards higher efficiency.

Discovery Ad Type is a relative newcomer yet emerging as a uniquely engaging ad type providing immersive, personalised ad format experience across mobile devices showing content interruptive free, i.e., native format integrated across social media channels such as YouTube home feed and discover tab on Google Search app, etc.,
Every industry vertical implementing artificial intelligence capabilities looks at replacing typical banner display formats, increasing dissatisfaction due to ad fatigue and causing less optimisation over time.
App Ads
The App Campaign Type, as the name suggests, is a Google Ads type exclusively for promoting mobile apps. The goal here is clear - increase app installs & engagement correspondingly.
You can choose from multiple ad formats; however, all the ads shown will be relevant only in app marketplaces and other areas where users search for applications.

Performance Max is a campaign type that enables advertisers to reach just about anyone on the internet since it allows campaigns to run across all Google ad networks with one overarching campaign.
At its core, Performance Max is geared toward significantly increasing business conversions by taking advantage of machine learning technology.
