AdWords Broad Match Modifier Keywords – this is my preferred match type, although I use all in our client accounts. The syntax of this keyword is as follows +GPS +Fleet +Management. Note the +’s directly in front of each keyword that MUST appear in the user’s search query for the AdWords ad to show.<\/p>\n

It’s also important to note that you don’t have to + every keyword, only the ones you have determined must in the user’s search query.<\/p>\n

Here’s what Google AdWords says about broad match modifier keywords.<\/p>\n

“Broad match modifiers help control when your ad can appear for closely related keywords. Broad match modifiers can help your keywords achieve a higher clickthrough rate (CTR)<\/a> with a more targeted audience, which in turn can help your site get more paying customers or other conversions.”<\/p>\n

Here is a real world example: if my term is +GPS +Fleet +Management a search query like dispatch and fleet management fleet management gps programs will trigger my ads. Sometimes I will remove some of the pluses to get more activity and do keywords like +GPS +Fleet management or GPS +Fleet +Management. Each variation will have a different impact in regards to what keywords will show your ads.<\/p>\n

If you feel you need better results from your investment in AdWords, I invite you to review our service offerings and schedule a free 15 minute call and account review to see how we would be able to improve performance and get better quality conversions for your ad spend<\/a>.<\/p>\n
