One of the best ways to get traffic to your website fast is using Google Adwords.

When setting up right Pay per click can become a very profitable source of new customers, the problem is so many businesses are not using Adwords efficiently meaning they are overpaying for ads, wasting money and not getting the results they want.

We asked our good friend Tash Conway over at Traffic Snap to put together six of her top tactics for that will help you maximise the return you get from Google Adwords over the next 12 months:

Check the search term report regularly

Its common to fail to check upon search term reports. However, this can result in failure to recognise which keywords are performing well.

No one wants to spend money that they don’t need to spend. Checking your report regularly will save you money, allow you to grow your negative list and give you more ideas for keywords to target. It’s a must.

Split test ads every week

A stagnant AdWords account might perform well, but if AdWords is a primary traffic source for you, then it’s vital to keep tweaking and refining ads.

This gives the best possible return for your investment. It’s a great way to demonstrate to Google that you’re effective in managing your account.

Demonstrating these sorts of things to Google all work towards ticking those best practice boxes.
