Any data for Google results page click through rates?
-
Hi.
Trying to find data for click through rate for the Google search results page?
If I run Adwords, do I want a PLA listing or a text listing? Or do I work on PLA + Organic or Text + Organic?
What percentages do each position get approximately?
E-commerce website. Technology sector.
Any help?

Hi,
As I said that there is no such data available in public domain. I would like to suggest you to start with search campaign only and to get high CTR use keyword in Ad headline, use call to action and don't forget to use Ad extensions.
***Initially use only restricted match type (Exact match Type) with few similar keywords in every Ad group . e.g 5-10 keywords.
Thanks

It depends on too many variables to give an accurate answer.
The only way to know for sure is to test. Set a reasonable test budget and run the campaigns.

What I mean is, if I have "X" product. And I want to start a PPC campaign, is there any data to tell me Text Ads perform generally better than PLA's?
Is there any data that shows that the top 3 text ads get 22% of the clicks, the PLA's get 30% of the clicks and organic gets 10% of the clicks?
Something like that.

Hi,
As you mentioned that you have eCommerce website then you should start with Search campaign & Google shopping campaign.
I don't understand this part "do I work on PLA + Organic or Text + Organic?"
"What percentages do each position get approximately?"
No body can tell you exact or even approx numerical CTR value because that varies for each websites and CTR depends on several other things e.g location setting, daily budget etc. You can only get idea by running Adwords campaign for your website.
Hope this helps.
Thanks

Question about audience targeting in Google Ads
I am setting up a test campaign where rather than structuring my campaigns by the normal ad group>keywords with no targeting. I am making duplicates of my ad groups and targeting each duplicate to a different audience so I can target the ads better. But I also want my non targeted ad group to remain to pick up people who are not in my targeted ad groups. In the non targeted ad group, should I exclude all the audiences that I have targeted in the targeted ad groups to avoid any cross over? Thanks

Site penalized by google
I noticed for a while that our competitors don't rank for any keywords organically and they are using paid ads to gain traffic. They have been in the industry for over 6 years and we are only new and have ranked above them already. How can we find out if a competitor has been penalized? Thanks

OK to have a modal pop-up on an AdWords landing page?
We're about to launch an AdWords campaign targeting users who are searching for hand-crafted furniture. The website we're sending users to has a large inventory of furniture, and all if it is hand-crafted. But there currently is no page on the site specifically communicating that all the furniture on the site is hand-crafted. So, rather than dump the user right into browsing the inventory, we want to put an intermediate step in place to say, in essence, "Hey, welcome, yes, we have lots of handcrafted furniture. In fact, all of it is hand-crafted. Here, have a look around." The art director on the project is suggesting that a modal pop-up would be perfect for this scenario. It would greet the user, who could then dismiss the pop-up and move into the site. I have two concerns about using a modal, though: Does a modal violate Google's policy against pop-ups that open new windows? Assuming we trigger the modal using Javascript, will AdsBot have any trouble crawling the content of the modal, such that it could hurt the landing page component of our quality score?

Changing Adwords campaign titles still mess up Analytics data?

Are they still busy rolling out the update to all Analytics account or is there something wrong with our Adwords<>Analytics integration? What's your experience? iO9Vafz.png?1

No paid results for specific search term?
Just doing some research for a potential PPC campaign. For the search terms I'm looking to target, no paid results appear wither above or to the right of the organic SERPs. Does anyone know the reason for this? Search term "Cigar Merchants" Is this because the search term is smoking related? Thanks!

Index or Noindex PPC Landing Pages?
Hi all, We have thousands of PPC landing pages for our products. Usually, these pages are very similar and may differ only slightly for the keyword in question. The landing pages are sitting in a sub-domain of our site. From SEO perspective, assuming we don't want to get hit by Panda, Penguin and other animals Google stuffed into its ranking algorithm...Is it a good idea not to index these landing pages at all (i.e. add meta robots - noindex, nofollow to these pages)? What say you? Thanks!
