PPC Basics Keyword Research Find Irrelevant Traffic before It Finds You

Many PPC Consultants run search query reports based upon Adwords and MSN on a regular basic. The queries which are generating unacceptable impressions or clicks are pulled and reported as negatives.

This is a task which helps to reduce a keyword list and eliminate unnecessary traffic from an ad as well as stopping useless clicks. These useless clicks prevent impressions from growing and in time, lower your click-through rate. Furthermore, negative reports are also capable of preventing clicks on ads and that equates into loss money and lower conversion rates.

If you're banking your PPC success solely upon search query reports then you are only creating a reactionary cycle which stunts the visibility of your ads and prevent clicks by irrelevant traffic.

Before starting a PPC account, most PPC Consultants recommend running basic keyword research reports first so as to locate potential keywords that are capable of causing irrelevant traffic from viewing your ads and/or clicking upon them beforehand. By doing this, you will be taking a more practical approach in eliminating unqualified traffic while also producing more click-through rates and higher scores. For example, let's say you are performing PPC keyword research on 'vacations in France' and surprisingly discovers keywords with search volumes for 'weddings in France' or 'French movies'. At the time being you should include 'wedding' and 'movies' as negative on your keyword list for the purpose of eliminating irrelevant or unqualified traffic.

Keyword search reports can be ran in Google, Yahoo, MSN and various other search engine tools to locate suspected negatives.

PPC Consultants or their firms should possess a continuous list of potential commonly used negatives which can be utilized for all their accounts. Some of those negative words include but not limited to the following: free, sex, comparison, reviews, diagram, pictures, career job/jobs, bargain, discount, cheap and many more.

**Note: Some of these commonly used keywords could be relevant to many businesses today!

Basically, the purpose of search query reports is to find negatives that were miss during an initial keyword search and to find negatives before they find your site.
