Google Keyword Costs

18 August 2017 | | Pay Per Click

Advertising in Google is an excellent strategy to help promote your practice and treatments to an audience that may not know your practice exists.

There are so many benefits to Google ads: they are highly targeted, you only pay when a user clicks on your ad and they are highly measurable.

One question we are asked most is: “What daily budget should I have?” This type of question is difficult to answer due to the varying costs different keywords and locations have. But how much do certain keywords cost in different locations?

The information below are suggested bids from Google on what you might spend per click on certain keywords in particular locations:

Whilst some of the suggested bids for certain keywords appear to be expensive, there are ways to reduce the cost. Improving the quality score of your ad will help to reduce the cost per click spend for individual keywords. Also, targeting other highly valuable keywords with less competition can result in you gaining conversions at a lower cost per click.
