Eliminate Wasted Spend with Negative Keywords
Negative keywords prevent your ads from showing for irrelevant searches, saving budget for clicks that actually convert. Agent Wise X maintains comprehensive negative keyword lists that prevent budget waste.
Why Negative Keywords Are Essential
Without negatives, broad and phrase match keywords trigger your ads for countless irrelevant searches. A “web design” campaign might show for “web design course” or “free web design tools.” Each irrelevant click wastes money.
Finding Negative Keywords
Review Search Terms Reports regularly. Identify queries that triggered your ads but aren’t relevant. Common universal negatives: “free,” “cheap,” “jobs,” “career,” “salary,” “DIY,” “tutorial,” “course” (for service businesses).
Negative Keyword Lists
Create shared negative keyword lists across campaigns. Maintain industry-specific negatives. Update lists weekly based on search term analysis. Organize by category: competitor terms, job-related, informational, geographic exclusions.
Match Types for Negatives
Negative exact match blocks only the exact term. Negative phrase match blocks the phrase within longer queries. Negative broad match blocks any query containing all negative terms. Use the right match type to avoid accidentally blocking relevant searches.
