Using Keywords to Expand your Brand’s Visibility

How keywords can elevate your brand

 

Finding relevant keywords through keyword research and understanding how users find your products and website is important information to know. Why? Because understanding your audience will allow you to create better ads and content that more deploy resonate with your current audience and engage more like them.

It’s important to learn about other keyword features that can drive your SEO. Because the more you optimize, the more your ads will target your most promising audiences. And more promising leads will come shortly thereafter as you grow your targeted audience. Keyword optimization is crucial to successful campaigns. But keywords come in many shapes and sizes, so let’s dive into what each one means.

  1. Broad Match Keywords – Broad match is a match type that all your keywords are given by default in order to account for the slight misspellings, synonyms, or related searches for a certain search query. Sometimes even a web browsers’ previous search history may be taken into account when they make a search. Broad match is highly beneficial in that it saves you the time of finding other potentially relevant keywords; the Google Ads system does it for you. Also, this process saves you money. If Google Ads identifies a keyword variation that has no clicks, it will immediately discontinue that variation, and then optimize those that are receiving clicks.

As a Google Ads user, you can take this a step further and use a broad match modifier to make even more changes that would be aligned with your overarching Google Ads strategy. Modified broad match enables you to indicate a range of broad match keywords (or their close variants) that must be searched for in order to trigger your ad so there is more control over what kinds of prospects you are attracting. 

  1. Phrase Match Keywords – A phrase match keyword is just that: a feature in Google Ads which connects a phrase in search queries with the keywords in your specific ad campaigns. With phrase match, your ad can appear when an exact search is made in Google or if a close variation to that search phrase is made in Google. However, words added in the middle of your phrase will not trigger keywords attached to your ad. Here’s an example:
Phrase Match Type Ad may show on searches for: Ad won’t show on searches for
Basketball shirts Buy basketball shirts on sale

Blue cotton basketball shirts

Blue basketball shirts

Shirts for basketball

So here it is! Two match types that can help you broaden your keyword reach and brand visibility. Yes, all these features overall are significant to driving your SEO, but you cannot just limit your view to certain ones because each of your campaigns are unique and ads must be catered specifically to those unique audiences (you can also run simultaneous ads to different audiences with different targeted keywords!).  Exploring broad match modifiers and phrase matches are great places to start to expanding your keyword reach.
