For the “Conversions” and “Conversion Rate”, if you see “$0.00” and “0.00%” respectively, it means there are no conversion yet in the selected data range;

while for “Cost/Conversions”, you may see “-” when there are no conversions and therefore system is unable to calculate the Cost Per Conversion properly.

What is Keywords Match type?

Keyword match type can control which Google search queries to trigger ads. Therefore, you can use “broad match” to display advertisements to a wide range of target audiences, or you can use “exact match” to focus on targeting specific customer groups.

 

Broad Match

Including misspellings, synonyms, related searches and other relevant variations. The benefits of this is high exposure when the downside is high cost caused by irrelevant clicksFor example: If your keywords are yoga training class, and your advertisement will have high chance to appear if the search term included yoga, training or class.

 

Broad Match Modifier

This modifier make sure ads will only be shown when keywords are included in the search terms by using a plus sign “+” in front of them(+yoga). This can reduce the ineffective exposure.Example: If your keywords are +yoga + training +class, the search terms below will trigger your ads to appear

 

Phrase Match

If your keyword is “yoga training class”, ads might be shown if the search terms are” hk yoga training class”/ “yoga training class price”, additional words before or after keyword is possible.

 

Exact Match

If the keywords are “yoga training class” (not case sensitive) the search term must be exactly the same as the keywords to trigger the ad exposure. The advantage is high Click through rate(CTR), and disadvantage is very limited exposure. This setting is mostly use in wide known brands or product.
