Google Ads Basics

What is Google Ads?

Google Ads (formerly Google AdWords) is Google’s online advertising platform. It lets businesses display ads on Google Search, YouTube, Gmail, and millions of partner websites. When someone searches a relevant keyword in Bangladesh, your ad can appear at the top of results.

How does Google Ads work in Bangladesh?

You create campaigns targeting keywords your customers search for. When someone in Bangladesh searches those keywords, Google holds an instant auction and your ad may appear. You pay when someone clicks your ad (Pay-Per-Click). The cost depends on keyword competition and your ad quality.

What types of Google Ads campaigns are there?

Main Google Ads campaign types: Search (text ads on Google), Display (banner ads on websites), Shopping (product listing ads), Video (YouTube ads), Performance Max (AI-automated across all channels), Smart (simplified automated campaigns), App (mobile app installs), and Local campaigns.

What is PPC in Google Ads?

PPC (Pay-Per-Click) means you only pay when someone clicks your ad. In contrast to CPM (cost per 1,000 impressions), PPC ensures your budget is spent on actual engagement. Google Search Ads and most Display Ads use PPC bidding.

What is Quality Score in Google Ads?

Quality Score (1–10) measures the relevance of your keywords, ads, and landing page. Higher Quality Score = lower CPC and better ad positions. It’s calculated from: expected CTR, ad relevance to the keyword, and landing page experience.

What is Ad Rank in Google Ads?

Ad Rank determines your ad’s position. It’s calculated from: your bid × Quality Score × expected impact of ad extensions. This means better relevance and quality can beat higher bids — great news for smaller Bangladesh businesses competing against bigger budgets.

What is the Google Display Network?

The Google Display Network (GDN) is a collection of 2+ million websites, apps, and videos where your Display ads can appear. It reaches 90%+ of internet users worldwide. For Bangladesh, GDN is effective for brand awareness campaigns targeting web users.

What is Performance Max in Google Ads?

Performance Max (PMax) is Google’s AI-powered campaign type that runs across all Google channels (Search, Display, YouTube, Gmail, Maps) automatically. It uses machine learning to find conversions across all placements. In 2025, it’s a key campaign type for Bangladesh e-commerce.

What is Google Shopping Ads?

Google Shopping Ads show product images, prices, and store names at the top of search results. They’re powered by a product feed in Google Merchant Center. For Bangladesh e-commerce businesses, Shopping Ads often have higher conversion rates than regular Search Ads.

What are YouTube Ads?

YouTube Ads are video ads shown before, during, or after YouTube videos. Types include: Skippable In-stream (skip after 5 seconds), Non-skippable (15 seconds max), Bumper Ads (6 seconds), and Discovery Ads (thumbnail ads). YouTube has millions of users in Bangladesh.

Google Ads Budget & Costs in Bangladesh

How much does Google Ads cost in Bangladesh?

Google Ads costs in Bangladesh depend on industry and keywords. Average CPC ranges: digital marketing keywords BDT 50–135/click, web development BDT 25–100/click, legal/finance BDT 100–500/click. Management fees from Agent Wise X start at BDT 20,000/month.

What is the minimum budget for Google Ads in Bangladesh?

You can technically start Google Ads with any daily budget, but for meaningful data and results we recommend at least BDT 500–1,000/day (approximately $5–10/day) in ad spend. Small local service businesses can start lower; e-commerce needs more to test product viability.

What is CPC in Google Ads?

CPC (Cost Per Click) is the amount you pay each time someone clicks your Google Ad. In Bangladesh, average CPC is lower than Western markets. Service businesses typically see BDT 20–150/CPC on Search. The final CPC depends on your Ad Rank vs. the next competitor’s.

What is a good ROAS for Google Ads in Bangladesh?

A good ROAS for Google Ads in Bangladesh depends on your profit margins. E-commerce: aim for 3x–6x ROAS. Service businesses: focus on cost per lead rather than ROAS — target a CPL below 20% of your average client value. Agent Wise X optimises to your specific business targets.

How do I set a Google Ads budget?

Set a daily budget per campaign based on how much you want to spend per day. Google may spend up to 2x your daily budget on high-traffic days, but stays within your monthly budget cap. Start with your total monthly budget ÷ 30 = daily budget.

What is Google Ads Smart Bidding?

Smart Bidding uses Google’s AI to automatically set bids for each auction to maximise your conversion goals. Types include: Target CPA (target cost per acquisition), Target ROAS, Maximise Conversions, and Maximise Conversion Value. Recommended for campaigns with 30+ conversions/month.

What is manual CPC bidding in Google Ads?

Manual CPC lets you set maximum bids for individual keywords. It gives full control but requires constant monitoring. Useful for: new campaigns without historical data, very small budgets, or specific keywords where you want precise bid control.

What is a Google Ads bid strategy?

A bid strategy determines how Google allocates your budget. Options: Maximise Clicks (most traffic), Target Impression Share (visibility), Target CPA (cost per lead), Target ROAS (revenue return), Maximise Conversions (most conversions), Enhanced CPC (semi-manual). Choose based on your campaign goal.

Should I use exact match or broad match keywords?

Broad Match gives widest reach but can waste budget on irrelevant searches. Exact Match [keyword] only shows for exact searches. Phrase Match targets searches containing your phrase in order. In Bangladesh, start with Phrase and Exact Match, then test Broad Match with Smart Bidding once you have conversion data.

How much do Google Ads management services cost in Bangladesh?

Google Ads management in Bangladesh costs BDT 15,000–40,000/month for professional agencies. Agent Wise X charges based on account complexity and ad spend volume. Our Google-certified team delivers transparent reporting and measurable results.

Google Ads Keywords & Targeting

What is keyword research for Google Ads?

Keyword research identifies what your target customers search for on Google. Tools include Google Keyword Planner (free), Ubersuggest, SEMrush, and Ahrefs. Focus on keywords with clear buying intent (e.g., ‘digital marketing agency Dhaka’) over general informational searches.

What are negative keywords in Google Ads?

Negative keywords prevent your ads from showing for irrelevant searches. For example, a digital marketing agency should add ‘digital marketing course’, ‘digital marketing jobs’, and ‘digital marketing salary’ as negatives to avoid paying for clicks from students and job seekers.

What is keyword match type in Google Ads?

Keyword match types control which searches trigger your ad: [Exact Match] = only exact search, ‘Phrase Match’ = searches containing your phrase, Broad Match = Google’s interpretation of relevance. Use a mix — predominantly Phrase and Exact Match for most Bangladesh campaigns.

How do I find the best keywords for my Bangladesh business?

Use Google Keyword Planner for Bangladesh-specific search volumes, look at your competitors’ ads (use SEMrush or SpyFu), analyse what customers say they search for, and check Search Terms reports in your Google Ads account after campaigns run to find converting search queries.

What is a search term vs a keyword in Google Ads?

A keyword is the word or phrase you bid on in Google Ads. A search term is the actual query a user typed that triggered your ad. Reviewing your Search Terms Report is essential — add high-performing terms as exact match keywords and irrelevant terms as negatives.

What is location targeting in Google Ads for Bangladesh?

Location targeting lets you show ads only in specific areas. For Bangladesh, target by country (Bangladesh), specific cities (Dhaka, Chittagong), or radius around a location. International businesses can target Bangladesh specifically for cost-effective reach.

What is device targeting in Google Ads?

Device targeting adjusts bids or excludes ads on Mobile, Desktop, or Tablet. In Bangladesh, 75%+ of searches happen on mobile. Use bid adjustments (+20–30%) to prioritise mobile traffic for consumer-facing businesses while potentially reducing desktop bids for B2B campaigns.

What is ad scheduling in Google Ads?

Ad scheduling (dayparting) shows your ads only during specific hours and days. For Bangladesh service businesses, increase bids during business hours (9am–6pm) and reduce overnight. For e-commerce, keep 24/7 but increase bids during evening hours (7pm–11pm).

What is audience targeting in Google Ads?

Google Ads audience targeting lets you layer demographic and interest-based targeting on top of keyword targeting. Options include: In-Market Audiences (people actively researching your product), Customer Match (upload your email list), Similar Audiences, and Remarketing Lists for Search Ads (RLSA).

What is remarketing in Google Ads?

Google Ads remarketing shows your ads to people who previously visited your website. RLSA (Remarketing Lists for Search Ads) adjusts bids when past visitors search relevant keywords. Display remarketing follows visitors across millions of websites. Remarketing typically drives 2–3x higher conversion rates.

Google Ads Campaign Setup & Optimisation

How do I set up a Google Ads account for Bangladesh?

Go to ads.google.com, create an account, enter your billing information (international credit/debit card accepted), set your country to Bangladesh, choose your campaign type and goals, create your first campaign with keywords and ads, and set conversion tracking before launching.

What is Google Conversion Tracking?

Google Conversion Tracking measures what happens after someone clicks your ad — purchases, form completions, calls, or page visits. Install the conversion tag on your thank-you page or use Google Tag Manager. Without conversion tracking, Google’s Smart Bidding cannot optimise properly.

What is Google Tag Manager?

Google Tag Manager is a free tool that lets you add and update website tracking codes (Google Ads conversion tags, Google Analytics, Facebook Pixel) without editing code directly. It centralises tag management and reduces reliance on developer support for tracking updates.

What is a Google Ads campaign structure?

Optimal Google Ads structure: Campaign (budget and targeting) → Ad Groups (themed keyword clusters) → Ads (3–5 ads per ad group) → Keywords. Keep each ad group tightly themed (5–15 related keywords) so ads can be highly relevant to what’s being searched.

How many ad variations should I run?

Run 3 Responsive Search Ads per ad group — Google tests the combinations automatically. Include 8–10 headlines and 4 descriptions to give Google enough combinations to test. Pin critical elements (brand name, key offer) to specific positions if needed.

What is a Responsive Search Ad (RSA)?

Responsive Search Ads let you enter up to 15 headlines and 4 descriptions. Google automatically tests different combinations and serves the best-performing variations to each user. They’ve replaced the older Expanded Text Ads as the standard format since 2022.

What are ad extensions in Google Ads?

Ad extensions (now called Assets) expand your ads with additional information: Sitelink Extensions (links to specific pages), Callout Extensions (key benefits), Call Extensions (phone number), Location Extensions (address), Price Extensions (product prices). Extensions improve CTR and Ad Rank — always set them up.

What is the Google Merchant Center?

Google Merchant Center is where you upload your product catalogue for Google Shopping Ads. It requires a product feed with: product titles, descriptions, prices, images, and availability. For Bangladesh e-commerce, a well-optimised product feed is essential for Shopping campaign success.

How do I improve my Google Ads Quality Score?

Improve Quality Score by: 1) Making ad headlines match the searched keyword exactly, 2) Ensuring landing page content matches the ad and keyword, 3) Improving landing page load speed, 4) Increasing CTR with compelling ad copy, 5) Using ad extensions relevant to each campaign.

What is Google Ads Account-Level Conversion Tracking?

Account-level conversion tracking imports goals from Google Analytics 4 (GA4) into Google Ads. This is the recommended setup in 2025 — it gives Google’s Smart Bidding algorithms access to all conversion data across your digital properties, improving optimisation accuracy.

Google Ads Measurement & Reporting

What metrics matter most in Google Ads?

Priority Google Ads metrics: Conversion Rate (% of clicks that convert), Cost Per Conversion (CPA), ROAS (for e-commerce), CTR (ad relevance), Quality Score (bidding efficiency), Impression Share (visibility vs competitors), and Search Lost IS (% of auctions missed and why).

What is Impression Share in Google Ads?

Impression Share shows what percentage of eligible impressions your ads actually received. ‘Search Lost IS (Budget)’ means you lost impressions due to budget being exhausted. ‘Search Lost IS (Rank)’ means your Ad Rank was too low. Target 70%+ Impression Share for key terms.

What is the Search Terms Report?

The Search Terms Report shows the actual queries that triggered your ads. Review this weekly — add high-converting terms as exact match keywords, identify wasted spend on irrelevant queries, and add those irrelevant terms as negative keywords. It’s the most important optimisation report.

How do I measure Google Ads success for a service business?

For service businesses in Bangladesh, key metrics are: Cost Per Lead (CPL), Lead Volume, Lead Quality (conversion to sale), and ultimately Cost Per Customer Acquired. Set up Google Ads conversion tracking for form fills and call tracking to measure accurately.

What is Google Analytics 4 (GA4) and how does it connect to Google Ads?

GA4 is Google’s analytics platform. Linking GA4 to Google Ads allows: importing GA4 goals as Google Ads conversions, seeing post-click behaviour (time on site, pages visited), creating GA4 audiences for Google Ads remarketing, and better attribution across multiple sessions.

How do I reduce wasted spend in Google Ads?

Reduce wasted spend by: 1) Adding negative keywords weekly from Search Terms Report, 2) Excluding irrelevant locations, 3) Pausing poor-performing ads and keywords, 4) Setting bid adjustments to reduce spend on low-converting devices/times, 5) Using Exact Match keywords for high-value terms.

What is attribution in Google Ads?

Attribution determines which ad clicks receive credit for a conversion. Models include: Last Click (100% to last ad clicked), First Click, Linear, Time Decay, Position-Based, and Data-Driven (Google’s AI-based model). Data-Driven attribution is recommended when you have sufficient conversion data.

Why are my Google Ads not getting impressions?

No impressions reasons: budget too low, bids too low for chosen match types, keywords have low search volume, location targeting too narrow, ads disapproved by Google, Quality Score too low, or campaign/ad group paused. Check Google Ads Recommendations tab for specific guidance.

What is the Google Ads Auction Insights Report?

Auction Insights shows how your ads perform vs. competitors in the same auctions — Impression Share, Overlap Rate, Position Above Rate, and Top of Page Rate. Use this to benchmark your performance against specific competitors and identify areas where they’re outranking you.

How do I track Google Ads conversions for a Shopify store in Bangladesh?

For Shopify: install Google & YouTube channel app, connect your Google Merchant Center and Google Ads accounts. Set up conversion tracking via Google Ads tag on Order Confirmation page or import purchases from GA4. Enable enhanced conversions for more accurate data.

Common Google Ads Problems & Strategy

Why is my Google Ad not showing?

Common reasons: ad disapproval (check Policy Manager), insufficient budget (ads paused after daily limit reached), keyword bids too low, poor Quality Score, location/device exclusions, schedule restrictions, or campaign paused. Use Ad Preview and Diagnosis tool to check without affecting CTR.

What is Google Ads policy violation?

Google Ads prohibits: misleading claims, counterfeit goods, dangerous products, adult content (without approval), and certain financial products. Common violations in Bangladesh include: exaggerated income claims, guaranteed results, and promotion of certain regulated products.

How do I compete with bigger brands on Google Ads?

Compete with larger brands by: targeting longer-tail, more specific keywords they ignore, focusing on local targeting (e.g., ‘Google Ads agency Dhaka’ instead of generic terms), having better landing pages (higher Quality Score = lower CPC), and using ad extensions competitors don’t use.

Should I use Google Ads or Facebook Ads for my Bangladesh business?

Google Ads captures demand (people actively searching for solutions). Facebook Ads creates demand (reaching people who may not know they need you). E-commerce: both; Service businesses: Google Search Ads first, then Facebook. New products with no search volume: Facebook first to build awareness.

What is a Google Ads agency and when should I hire one?

A Google Ads agency manages your campaigns professionally. Hire one when: your campaigns are losing money, you lack time to optimise regularly, you want faster scaling, or you need specialised expertise (Shopping, Performance Max). Agent Wise X is Google Certified and manages clients across Bangladesh.

What is Google Ads for e-commerce in Bangladesh?

For Bangladesh e-commerce, Google Ads strategy typically includes: Search Ads for high-intent product keywords, Performance Max for automated multi-channel reach, Shopping Ads via Merchant Centre, and Display remarketing for cart abandoners. Combined with Facebook Ads for a full-funnel approach.

What is Smart Campaign in Google Ads?

Smart Campaigns are Google’s simplified automated campaign type designed for small businesses. Google automatically creates ads and targets keywords based on your business website. Easy to set up but less control. Advanced advertisers use Standard or Performance Max campaigns instead.

How long does it take to see Google Ads results?

Google Search Ads can drive traffic the same day they launch. However, meaningful optimisation results take 4–8 weeks as the algorithm learns. Shopping and Performance Max campaigns need 4–6 weeks of conversion data before Smart Bidding optimises effectively.

What is Google Ads suspended account and how to fix it?

Account suspension occurs for policy violations, billing issues, or suspicious activity. To fix: identify the suspension reason in Policy Manager, resolve the issue (update payment, fix policy violations, verify identity), submit an appeal through the Google Ads Help Centre.

Is Google Ads worth it for small businesses in Bangladesh?

Yes, especially for service businesses and local businesses. Google Ads captures high-intent traffic from people actively searching for your service in Bangladesh. Start with a focused Search campaign targeting your highest-value service keywords. Agent Wise X offers starter Google Ads packages for small businesses.
