Campaign Activities – September

Based on the report provided last month, the plan was to add new keywords identified from the search term reports. Accordingly, the following keywords were added to the campaign’s search keyword list to increase visibility and allow better CPC management:

  • [queer couples counselling]

  • [online therapy bc]

  • [virtual therapy canada]

  • [remote counselling]

At the same time, irrelevant search terms were added to the negative keyword list to prevent ads from being triggered by non-targeted traffic. These include:

  • [online psikolog]

  • [online therapy near me]

  • [lgbt couples therapy near me]

  • [lgbtq counselors near me]

  • [psychologist lgbtq near me]

  • [therapist specializing in lgbtq near me]

Additionally, two new headlines were added to the ads to improve Quality Score for the targeted keywords:

  • Online Relationship Counseling

  • Remote Counsellor For You

Recommendation:
Last month, we increased CPC by $1 to try to improve CTR. However, due to the limited daily budget of $17, the CTR did not change significantly. To improve campaign performance and generate more clicks, we recommend increasing your daily budget to $30. Otherwise, the likelihood of acquiring leads under the current budget remains low.
