How importance to check and re-check Your Landing Page

admin — Thu, 04 Jun 2009 12:17:30 +0000

Almost two months I’ve been running PPC Marketing using Adwords, I’m quite satisfied with the result wherein I generated 105.53% ROI during 45 days. Although such was the case, I do straight away researching and implementing any optimization tips that I found, including Landing Page optimization.

Today I check my landing page to ensure that there’re no any problems. When I check it, the worst occurrence just happened with my landing page, my landing page has no call to action button. How stupid I am! I just spent my money for nothing.

Without any delay, immediately I try to fix it. And the problem is on a file that lades “call to action button”, I didn’t complete uploading it when I update that file. I just think I have done and everything is ok. I think my landing page is going well although I didn’t check it again. But I’m wrong.

Based on this incident, how very importance to check and re-check your landing page, to ensure everything is going well, such as loading time, capability with any browsers, and the call to action button.

What if that problem was your landing page links didn’t work properly? You’ve just threw potentially millions of dollars away for rushing the launch of a campaign. It’s happened to me which is the reason I will create this checklist for you to go through after each campaign is ready to go.

That mark quote is taken from Richard Bonner (aka. Richardbonner.net), he just posted “Pre Campaign Launch Checklist” article. Thanks Richard for the nice article! I’ll try always to check and re-check my landing page and other aspects before I turn a campaign on.

Grounded on your feedback Google tries to do better and make new Adwords interface. AdWords campaign management has been redesigned to help you get your work done faster.

Integrated reports on campaign management pages.

Google Pagerank update

admin — Sat, 04 Apr 2009 09:09:00 +0000

It looks like Google Pagerank (PR) update in progress. Two days ago I checked several of my blogs. One of my blog has new PR, went from PR2 to PR3.

I think for this PR update Google is getting a regular schedule for the PageRank updated again. Several months ago we got irregular PR update, it unpredictable when PR update will start.

As you might know, Google updates Pagerank is every three months. The last one happened in the second week of January, so that is more or less one PR update every three months or so. So if the Pagerank update runs regularly every three months, we will get another PR update in the middle of July.
