For the month of November, website analytics and Google Ads finished with promising results. Website traffic saw a major increase of 506.5% compared to the month before and a 400% increase in event counts on the website which is a total of 1,120. Regarding Google Ads, there were 36 ad clicks, 1 call, 1,200 impressions and a 3.1% click-through rate. It has been uncovered that competitors are bidding aggressively on the focus keywords with some keywords bidding at nearly $15.61 per click. As a result, the daily ad budget would be spent on a total of 2 clicks due to the increase in competition. Therefore, we will continue to monitor the bidding strategy of the competitors in order to identify any opportunities to decrease the average cost per click. In November, the focus of the campaign was to optimise ad copy and high-intent keywords in order to out-rank competitors. In December, the focus will be to continue the regular optimisations of keywords and ad copy in order to increase conversions and add negative keywords in order to avoid unnecessary spending.
The vital steps in the SEO campaign were completed which consisted of keyword research, implementation of local business schema, fixing broken links and completing redirects. These activities will lay a clean foundation for the remainder of the campaign. In December, the focus will be to create new SEO content and location pages that include the focus keywords. In addition, on-page and off-page strategies will be completed which is the core to boosting the rankings of vital keywords to the first page of Google search.

November marks the first month for the Google Ads campaign. It got a call through the Tax Advice ads using a high intent search term.
However, the cost per click is a bit expensive, amounting to $15.61 for a single click. With competitors bidding aggressively for the same keywords, the campaign can only get at most 2 clicks a day before the $30 daily budget is depleted. Also, the bookkeeping services ads are continuously being shown to users trying to start up or researching about a bookkeeping business.
For November, we optimised keywords. We also added new keywords based on high intent search terms. Furthermore, we optimised the ad copy based on high-ranking competitors’ calls-to-action and word choice. Finally, we performed regular optimisations such as adding competitor and low intent search terms in the negative keywords list.
With that being said, the plan for December is to continue optimising the keywords and ad copy to drive more conversions for the campaign. We will also continue adding irrelevant, low intent, and competitor search terms in the negative keyword list.
