PPC and Web Searcher Intent

By Marten Ranheim


Keyword intent consists of keywords that are used to target searchers that are most likely to have interest in your product. Basically, product keywords should be perfectly matched with the perceived intentions of online searchers. Knowing the intentions of your targeted clients is very important because they serve as the basis of your campaign materials and in the creation of the content of the landing page on the web.

The secret tool to have a great performance in the PPC aspect is to provide the online searcher with advertising that is closely related. Everyone who goes online has questions in mind that he wants to be answered by doing research. Your ad is making him an offer. The more closely matched the offer - to the goal, the more likely the ad is to win the click.

Knowing what the real intentions of those who are paying your website a visit is an efficient step in designing your advertising campaigns. Intentions can be very different and targeting them with the same ad is a lost opportunity. To illustrate, some online enthusiasts visit the virtual world to intentionally buy something while others are still in the stage of doing research. There's a big possibility that a researcher will not stick to your website if you tend to push him to make a purchase right away. It is always a better option to formulate a technique for the searcher to become interested in every level of your presentation and selling will flow naturally from that.

Customer Manners and Purchasing Levels

There are three main intentions one can consider - research, reflection, and action. In the level of research, those who go online try several methods to check out what they want to search on and they do it in stages. At the very beginning of the process, they often use general keywords to find general information.

In reflection stage, web searchers narrow their selection because they are now more informed and know what type of service or product they really want. During this stage web surfers now know more about what they are looking for and how to find what they really want.

In the action stage, web searchers now know what specific service or product they want and they want to take action. They are just looking for the right website they feel they can trust, with the most credible to offer. In this action stage, web searchers are going to use very specific keywords. This is the famed long tail keyword that everyone seeks. This is the famed long tail keyword that everyone seeks. Buyers are further along in their cycle and there is less competition here.

Maintain the Relevance

It is very vital that the copy of advertisement and the landing page would properly match those intentions that you are eyeing to serve. Hence, if somebody is still in the research level, an ad must be made available for him and this is to be reinforced by a landing page. Your aim to pay less for every click is achievable if you maintain the copy of your ad, keyword, and landing page to be strictly related to each other.

As opposed to encouraging your patrons to buy products immediately, which may result in a lost sales opportunity, present them with very useful information through your content and try to cultivate rapport.
