Retargeting to Increase Conversion Rates

An Effective Marketing Technique

Many people are using online sources for finding reliable suppliers or service providers. In turn, businesses are using pay-per-click (PPC) advertising for attracting new visitors to their business website. The goal is to generate new leads and orders.

Statistical data indicates that less than 5% of these first-time visitors to the website will convert into customers. This is because they are mainly searching for information. These visitors will also usually visit the competitor’s website to collect information. Which they will then compare and make a decision. In some cases, the user will often postpone the purchase, until he is shown a reminder to do so.

So in the last few years, retargeting has become one of the most effective online marketing techniques. It helps businesses greatly improve their conversion rate from online advertising. This is especially true when compared to more expensive PPC advertising.

Retargeting

With retargeting, when the potential customer clicks the ad, will visit another website, which is partnering with the ad network. They will see an advertisement of the business selling a product or service which they have viewed before in. This will help in branding the business. There are platforms for measuring the effectiveness of retargeting like ad roll. They show the conversion rate for these retargeted ads. Hence it is important to ensure that the retargeted ad is properly designed with attractive offers. In turn, improving the conversion rate.

Website design

The business should have an attractive and memorable logo that they can use on their website as well as the retargeting ads.
