You can choose to be charged for clicks, impressions, or conversions, depending on the type of campaign you run.<\/p><p>Once your ads are running, we provide performance data so your third-party partner can track what\u2019s working and what\u2019s not. Google\u2019s AdWords and AdWords Express advertising products are highly accountable, helping you understand precisely the return on your advertising investment and allowing your third-party partner to make adjustments to optimize for the best possible return. For a summary of the differences between AdWords and AdWords Express see\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/support.google.com\/adwords\/express\/answer\/1689628?hl=en\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">support.google.com\/adwords\/express\/answer\/1689628<\/a><\/p><p>In addition to Google search, you can also run ads on Google\u2019s network of partner sites (places where you may have seen the \u201cAds by Google\u201d message) \u2013 including YouTube. On this network, you can take advantage of other ad formats, such as image ads and video ads.<\/p><h2>Google and third-party partners<\/h2><p>We believe that Google advertising can help your business succeed. However, you might not have the time or resources to devote to building \u2013 and regularly maintaining \u2013 a successful account. Or maybe you\u2019d just like some help optimizing from an expert.<\/p><p>That\u2019s where our third-party partners come in. There are many different types of third parties out there, from the largest advertising agency and yellow page publisher to the one-person web consultant. To help you select a third-party partner, we\u2019ve developed our Partner Programs. Participating third parties that have met the requirements of one of our Partner Programs may display that program\u2019s badge on their websites. Two badges that you\u2019ll probably see most often are\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/partners\/?hl=en\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Google Partner<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.google.co.in\/ads\/premiersmbpartner\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Premier SMB Partners<\/a>.<\/p><p>To confirm that a company is certified within our Partner Programs, click the badge on its website. If the company is certified, you\u2019ll be taken to its profile page on Google.<\/p><h2>How to work with a third-party partner<\/h2><p>A third-party partner can save you and your business a lot of time and energy. For best results, we encourage you to stay informed, involved, and up-to-speed on your ad campaigns, and let your partner handle the time-consuming work.<\/p><p>Third-party partners will often charge a fee in addition to the cost of your advertising. Remember, they provide valuable services like managing your campaigns, providing you with reporting, answering your questions, or optimizing your campaigns. We believe it\u2019s important for you to understand the total cost of your advertising, including any fees your third-party partner charges. You can use this amount to determine your return on investment (ROI).<\/p><p>Here are five quick tips for being a savvy customer:<\/p><ol><li><strong>Be selective.<\/strong>\u00a0When selecting a third-party partner to work with, look for companies that display a Google Partner or a Premier SMB Partners badge. You can use\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/partners\/?hl=en#a_search\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Google Partner Search<\/a>\u00a0or browse the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.google.co.in\/ads\/premiersmbpartner\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Premier SMB Partners website<\/a>\u00a0for your region to verify that a company is actually a Google Partner or Premier SMB Partner. As part of your selection process, be sure that you understand and are comfortable with the length of the contract you\u2019re entering into with the partner. There are a few other criteria to help you choose the right third-party partner for you:<ul><li>Has this third-party partner worked with businesses in your area before?<\/li><li>What about businesses with similar budgets or target audiences?<\/li><li>What other services can they provide \u2013 alongside Google advertising \u2013 to grow your business?<\/li><\/ul><\/li><li><strong>Pick one partner.<\/strong>\u00a0You may be tempted to divide your budget among multiple third parties to see which one drives the best results. You\u2019re welcome to do this, but we recommend that you test them one at a time. Google doesn\u2019t display more than one ad for a business on a page of search results, so you\u2019ll find it difficult to test multiple third parties at once.<\/li><li><strong>Educate yourself.<\/strong>\u00a0Understanding advertising at an advanced level can take time, but it doesn\u2019t take much time to learn the basics of Google advertising. Review the \u201cAdvertising basics\u201d section below. To learn more, visit the AdWords Help Center at\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/support.google.com\/adwords?hl=en#topic=3119071\">adwords.google.com\/support\/aw<\/a>\u00a0or the AdWords Express Help Center at<a href=\"https:\/\/support.google.com\/adwords\/express\/?hl=en#topic=1719919\">support.google.com\/adwords\/express\/<\/a>. Understanding these programs will help you make more informed decisions with your third-party partner.<\/li><li><strong>Trust experience.<\/strong>\u00a0If you\u2019re working with a company that\u2019s managed hundreds of Google advertising accounts, then it\u2019s likely to have developed expertise with Google\u2019s advertising products. If it tells you that certain industries have historically higher online-advertising costs or certain keywords or ads might not work for your business, it\u2019s probably speaking from experience.<\/li><li><strong>Evaluate your performance.<\/strong>\u00a0Unless you\u2019re focused on branding, what matters most about advertising is the return on your investment in it (i.e. the number of new customers coming in the door). So take some time each month to measure what you\u2019re investing, and the results you\u2019re receiving from that investment.<\/li><\/ol><h2>What to watch out for<\/h2><p>We believe that it\u2019s important for you to have a great experience with Google advertising. If you don\u2019t, please\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/support.google.com\/adwords\/contact\/thirdparty_complaint?hl=en\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">let us know<\/a>. Be sure first to work with your third-party partner to try to resolve any issues before contacting us.<\/p><p>Many third parties have earned our trust by representing the best interests of their advertisers. But some third parties do not. Here are some activities to watch out for and let us know about:<\/p><ul><li><strong>Not sharing the cost and performance of advertising campaigns:<\/strong>\u00a0You have a right to know, at a minimum, the number of clicks, impressions, and cost of your Google ads.<\/li><li><strong>Guaranteeing ad placement, either on a specific advertising channel or in a specific position:<\/strong>\u00a0It\u2019s not possible to guarantee a specific ad position on Google.com search results pages. Ad position is determined by an auction and changes dynamically with every new search. Some third parties may only charge you if they achieve your desired ad placement, but those that guarantee a specific position (i.e. the top position every time a user searches for your keyword) are misrepresenting how Google\u2019s advertising works.<\/li><li><strong>Claiming to be from Google:<\/strong>\u00a0Ask this person for their name and to email you from their @google.com (not @gmail.com) email address; if you\u2019re still unsure,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/support.google.com\/adwords\/contact\/3ps_form?hl=en\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">contact us<\/a>\u00a0to find out.<\/li><li><strong>Harassing or bullying you into signing up:<\/strong>\u00a0Third parties cannot remove your business from the natural or organic search results on Google.com.<\/li><li><strong>Claiming advertising on Google will affect your organic or natural ranking:<\/strong>\u00a0Advertising on Google has no impact on your organic or natural ranking in the search results; the two are completely separate.<\/li><li><strong>Deceptive pricing:<\/strong>\u00a0The agency may not use the correct advertising budget as agreed with you. Make sure that you get an official copy of your agreement in writing.<\/li><\/ul><h2>Report a violation of third-party policy<\/h2><p>Think a third-party partner is violating this policy? Let us know:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/support.google.com\/adwords\/contact\/thirdparty_complaint?hl=en\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">report a violation of third-party policy<\/a>.<\/p><p>While we may not respond personally when you contact us about a third party, we will investigate your comments and, if necessary, take appropriate action.<\/p><h2>Advertising basics<\/h2><ul><li><strong>Average Position:<\/strong>\u00a0The average position an ad appears in when it\u2019s triggered. An average position of 1-8 generally means that the ad is appearing on the first page of search results.<\/li><li><strong>Clicks:<\/strong>\u00a0The number of times users clicked your ad.<\/li><li><strong>Clickthrough Rate (CTR):<\/strong>\u00a0The number of clicks divided by the number of impressions, shown as a percentage. A good CTR can improve your average position.<\/li><li><strong>Conversion:<\/strong>\u00a0The action that your advertising results in, such as a phone call, lead, or sale. This is usually a good metric to use to measure the success of your advertising.<\/li><li><strong>Cost:<\/strong>\u00a0The total amount you spend with Google advertising.<\/li><li><strong>Impressions:<\/strong>\u00a0The number of times your ad appeared.<\/li><li><strong>Keywords:<\/strong>\u00a0The words or phrases you select for AdWords so that when users search for those words on Google, your ad may appear next to or above the search results. For AdWords Express, Google automatically selects keywords based on your short ad and product description; you do not choose the keywords.<\/li><\/ul><p>If you have a question about your Google advertising account and need help, please visit the AdWords Help Center at\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/support.google.com\/adwords\/?hl=en#topic=3119071\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">adwords.google.com\/support\/aw\/<\/a>\u00a0or the AdWords Express Help Center at\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/support.google.com\/adwords\/express\/?hl=en#topic=1719919\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">support.google.com\/adwords\/express\/<\/a>.<\/p><\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/body>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Third Party Policy Advertiser guide: working with third parties Introduction to Google\u2019s online advertising Advertising with Google allows you to reach new customers at the precise moment they\u2019re searching for your type of products and services.
