So you have decided to get yourself on Google using AdWords and you have been asked to setup an AdWords Account or want to try and run an AdWords account on your own.
Using AdWords you can be seen by customers instantly instead of waiting for SEO to achieve organic rankings. AdWords provides the ability to be top of the search results on Google when you want to be on top for the chosen keywords you select, which allows you to be seen for the products or services you offer.
You only pay when the person searching actually clicks to visit your website or calls you.
Getting setup on Google AdWords is actually simple and only takes a few minutes. We recommend you get expert help from an AdWords Management company like ourselves.
What is your email address?
Google ask this so that they can create a Google account with this email address. This will be used with AdWords and this is what is used to login to AdWords.
All correspondence will be sent to this account such as spend and activity information, warnings and opportunity.
What is your website?
This is the website you are going to be advertising in Google AdWords.
If you are part of a franchise and have a page internally on a main website then this will be the page related to your franchise.
Simply enter the website URL.
You will next be asked to provide further information.
Name – this will be used across all Google services going forward. For example, when you create content that you want to share with others, your name will appear with this content.
Email Address – This will use what was entered on the previous screen.
Password – This is used when logging in and when creating a password you have to ensure you use at least eight characters. If you need help choosing a smart password.
Birthday – your date of birth helps Google provide age-appropriate settings and these are used outside of AdWords.
Mobile phone number – This is one of the easiest and most reliable ways to help keep an AdWords account safe. Since you have physical possession of your phone, Google use this to provide easier ways for you to get back into your account if you ever forget your password. This field is optional, but strongly recommended if you have a mobile phone.
You will then have to accept Google AdWords Privacy and Terms by scrolling down and selecting “I AGREE”.
SCROLL DOWN AND THE “I AGREE” BUTTON WILL BECOME AVAILABLE
