most recent research and insights related to their industry unfortunately with so many new studies and with data being updated so often it can difficult to keep up to make life a bit easier we created the databoard for research insights which allows people to explore and interact with some of google s recent research in a unique and immersive way the databoard is our response to three big challenges facing the vast majority of research released today 1 ease of consumption the databoard introduces a new way of sharing data with all of the information presented in a simple and beautiful way users can explore an entire study or jump straight to the topics or datapoints that they care about the databoard is also optimized for all devices so you can comfortably explore the research on your computer tablet or smartphone 2 shareability most people when they find a compelling piece of data want to share it whether its with a colleague client or a community on a blog or social network compelling insights and data are meant to be shared the databoard is designed for shareability allowing users to share individual charts and insights or collections of data with anyone through email or social networks 3 a cohesive story most research studies set out to answer a specific question like how people use their smartphones in store or how a specific type of consumer shops this means that businesses need to look across multiple pieces of research to craft a comprehensive business or marketing strategy to address this need the databoard allows users to curate a customized infographic out of the charts or data points you find important across multiple google research studies creating an infographic is quick and easy and you can share the finished product with your friends or colleagues the databoard is currently home to four research studies including the new multi screen world mobile in store shopper research mobile search moments and more new studies will be

to stores shopping and even comparing prices instantly from their smartphones in fact 8 out of 10 smartphone shoppers use their devices to help make shopping decisions while inside physical retail stores as a result retailers now must account for new and complex paths to purchase while constant connectivity poses a new challenge in marketing it also presents great opportunities for instance shoppers who use mobile spend 25 more in store on average beyond mobile assisted store visits consumers are also increasingly comfortable with m commerce whether they re purchasing directly from their smartphone or starting on a phone and later completing the online purchase on a pc not surprisingly at our recent think shopper summits over the past month many retailers asked how they could win with

remarketing to re engage consumers who have previously expressed interest in a category or brand enhanced campaigns with enhanced campaigns retailers can effectively engage today s constantly connected consumers location extensions make it easier for mobile searchers to find a retailer s store and proximity based bidding allows retailers to bid strategically for higher value searches happening closer to their stores mobile attribution models to better measure roi and inform investment full value of mobile nearly 3 of 10 mobile searches directly result in a conversion but they can

part 4 setting your bid adjustment for time thursday may 30 2013 8 35 am labels mobile ads blog today s post will provide guidance on using time bid adjustments it is the fourth post in a bidding best practices series previous posts covered optimization strategies for setting location and mobile bid adjustments as well as prioritization in our constantly connected world people are searching on multiple devices throughout the day for places to go things to buy and ways to stay entertained people often use similar search results in different ways depending on the time of day that they search for example if someone is searching for hawaii vacations during the workday she may just be doing research for an upcoming trip when she returns home and conducts the same search in the evening she may be more likely to have all the info she needs to book the flights and hotels with this constant connectivity search marketers can now receive web traffic from across the globe and around the clock most businesses can still identify peak days and times when they see better roi and lower costs at other times customer activity might be slower and some businesses may wish to drive additional visits even if the cost is a bit higher if your business sees regular cycles of customer behavior and adwords performance during the week then using the time bid adjustment feature in adwords enhanced campaigns may make sense for you this feature can help you improve results by allowing you to increase or decrease bids by day of the week or time of day getting started with time bid adjustments before making any adjustments it s important to choose the right level of granularity for analysis for example will you adjust bids by day of the week eight hour increments or down to the hour while you may be tempted to optimize down to the hour it s important to ensure that you have sufficient data to make decisions for each time period a general rule would be to have 1 000 clicks and 30 conversions for each time period you re looking to optimize calculating your time bid adjustments once you decide that using time bid adjustments are right for your business compare the performance of your ads at varying times to your overall performance goal this will allow you to easily determine the right bid adjustment for each time period if you are setting a goal using a cost per action target your bid adjustment can be calculated as follows time bid adjustment 100 campaign goal actual performance 1 for example let s say you are an online retailer who sees better traffic and performance on weekdays as opposed to weekends you would like to target a 30 cost per acquisition overall but you are experiencing a 25 cost per acquisition on weekdays and a 40 cost per acquisition on weekends to meet your performance goal and maximize efficiency you can use a time bid adjustment simply adjust your bids on weekdays by 20 and on weekends by 25 this allows you to optimize for your goal by bidding more aggressively on weekdays when conversions are more cost effective and less aggressively on weekends when performance is lower test and learn constant iteration is a key part of the optimization process to ensure you are optimized over time check the performance for each time adjustment regularly on the time subtab in your campaign settings raise your bid adjustment where your performance exceeds your goal and lower your bid adjustment where your performance falls short of your goal this will allow you to optimize your bids and adjust to changing consumer behavior tips you should also take this opportunity to study your internal data to understand when you have peak activity in terms of conversion rates order size and overall volume if you have a physical store or run a call center you may consider using those hours of operation as guideposts for setting your time bid adjustment studying the volume of activity during the times you are open can give you a good sense of when you may wish to raise or lower your bids for example if your call center is closed during the night you may wish to decrease bids during this time to avoid sending customers to unsupported lines by the same token if you operate a physical store and see lulls in traffic during certain hours you may wish to increase bids during this time and run ads with promotional offers to drive more people to your business reminders time bid adjustments are a key part of enhanced campaigns to use time bid adjustments alongside location and mobile bid adjustments you ll need to upgrade
