PAID ADVERTISING ON GOOGLE, FACEBOOK AND LINKEDIN
In addition to traditional advertising in the newspaper, on the local radio or TV station, or in your town’s penny-savers or bi-monthly papers, you may need to consider buying some ad space on the Internet. After all, that’s where your website lives, so why not advertise online with your website only a click away? Talk about convenient.
Depending on your target audience, you have several choices, but let’s talk about the Top Three: Google, Facebook and Linkedin.
Google Ads
Google Ads is an affordable form of advertising that allows you to target qualified, potential customers with your products or services. It provides your company, business, or service with an unparalleled potential customer base that is actively looking for your content, products, and services. It reaches every demographic from teens to seniors and every age in between.
Your advertising can be coded to target specific zip codes or counties and states, or it can be broadcast across the nation, depending on where your customers may come from. If updated and managed correctly, Google Ads can deliver strong ROI, helping you grow your company’s leads and sales. It provides a cost-effective way for businesses of all types and sizes and in all geographic areas to reach an unlimited targeted audience.
At thirteen05 Creative, our Google My Business certified, and tech savvy staff knows exactly how to optimize your company’s search results. It starts with headlines and content that contain a certain number of targeted keywords, phrases, and algorithms to pinpoint your market area. This greatly increases your potential for attracting new customers.
Google prioritizes ads based on keyword and geographic relevance. So, when a user goes online to do a search, they normally type in words or names of items or services they’re looking for, either near their home or across the country. Google then searches for relevant keywords and BOOM! Your company should come up…if your advertising is kept up to date and your search protocols are correctly put into place and constantly monitored.
Google Ads is one of the most popular pay-per-click (PPC) advertising platforms in the world. It has the highest click-thru-rate (CTR), which means many more people—potential customers–click on the ad than any other online service.
According to Facebook, “more than two billion people use Facebook every month”—so no matter what kind of customer you’re trying to target, you’ll find them on this social media platform.

Who does Facebook reach? Well, according to a 2022 Google study, 69% of Americans use Facebook.
