Before setting up advertising campaigns, we conducted audit of existing advertisement in Google Ads and Yandex Direct. Based on the results of the analysis, we defined a list of tasks:
- Group keywords by type of relevance.
- Expand keywords for all advertised services.
- Add missing ads assets in Google Ads.
- Conduct sorting of search terms.
- Expand negative keywords list.
- Increase the quality of ads in the Yandex Direct wizard campaign.
- Launch retargeting in Yandex Direct.
After defining the list of tasks, it was decided to completely reconfigure search campaigns in Google Ads and Yandex Direct. For this purpose, we collected the missing semantics with the help of Yandex Wordstat and Google Keyword Planner for the main categories:
- A chiropractor.
- Neurologist for adults and children.
The bulk of the budget, around 85% to 80%, was allocated to Google Ads. The remaining 15% to 20% went to Yandex. Within the advertising system, the budget was divided accordingly:
- In Yandex Direct 100% for the direction "chiropractor".
- In Google Ads 67% for "neurologist" and 33% for "chiropractor", as the requests related to neurology brought more conversions.
