So whether you want to “set it and forget it” or you prefer to turn your campaign on and off throughout the year, the choice and the flexibility is yours. Note that there are no term contracts so you’re never locked into running your Yelp Ads for a specific period of time.</p> <p>You can also take advantage of the <a href="https://blog.yelp.com/news/new-yelp-for-business-features-provide-advertisers-with-more-control-and-convenience/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">one-click restart feature</a>. This means your previous advertising settings are automatically saved, and you can start back up again with one step.</p> <h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-2-reach-the-right-customers-with-customization-and-targeting">2. Reach the right customers with customization and targeting</h2> <h3 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-custom-text-and-picture">Custom text and picture</h3> <p>Customizing your ad helps ensure you’re attracting relevant customers and highlights your business in a way that’s on brand. There are a couple parts to customizing:</p> <ul class="wp-block-list"> <li>Choosing the primary photo people will see when looking at your ad</li> <li>Selecting what text shows up on your ad</li> </ul> <p>You can test different combinations, or if you’re not sure what image to use, you can let Yelp’s machine-learning algorithm find what photo will be most impactful.</p> <figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img fetchpriority="high" decoding="async" width="1540" height="936" src="https://blog.yelp.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/02/image.png" alt="" class="wp-image-780034"/></figure> <h3 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-keyword-boosting">Keyword boosting</h3> <p>The Yelp Ads platform automatically targets people who show an interest in a business like yours, based on factors like where they are searching, what they are searching for, and what kind of business you’re in. That means advertisers never have to guess at which keywords may be most responsive.</p> <p>You can also take advantage of keyword boosting which allows you to boost important keywords and Yelp will try to show ads with those keywords more often. This helps your business listing appear for searches that are most relevant.</p> <figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img decoding="async" width="1520" height="1202" src="https://blog.yelp.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/02/image-1.png" alt="" class="wp-image-780035"/></figure> <p>Note that you can also exclude keywords after purchase (recommended only if there are adjacent keywords for services you don’t offer).</p> <h3 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-location-based-targeting">Location-based targeting</h3> <p>Location-based targeting allows you to determine how far away you want your ad to be shown. You can geo-target your ad to be displayed in the radius of your choice around your business location, allowing you to better target your audience (radius options vary per business category). Some businesses serve larger areas and want to cast a wide net while others want to focus on customers very close to their business’s location. This feature caters to both.</p> <figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img decoding="async" width="1368" height="1272" src="https://blog.yelp.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/02/image-2.png" alt="" class="wp-image-780036"/></figure> <h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-3-set-and-control-your-own-budget">3. Set and control your own budget</h2> <p>No matter what business budget you have, your spending strategy with Yelp Ads is completely up to you. Advertisers pay on a cost-per-click basis based on a monthly max budget that you set when you sign up. These flexible monthly budgets don’t require a long-term commitment and allow you to adjust your spend based on your business needs. For example, if you’re a landscaper and looking for more calls during the warmer months, you can easily increase your monthly ad budget during the month of April to drive more spring and summer traffic to your page.</p> <p>That said, your return on investment does depend on how much you put into it, so be sure you set a budget that puts you in a position to make the investment worth it. You can strategically adjust your budget to specific needs and goals, like increasing your spend when you’re in growth mode and scaling back when you’re tighter on funds. You can make changes <em>when</em> you want and <em>as often</em> as you want. The Yelp Ads team can also help you with recommendations on how to determine your budget.</p> <figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img decoding="async" width="2102" height="686" src="https://blog.yelp.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/02/image-3.png" alt="" class="wp-image-780037"/></figure> <h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-4-keep-your-yelp-page-up-to-date">4. Keep your Yelp Page up to date</h2> <p>Yelp Ads help businesses reach more potential customers through more prominent exposure. Once people click through to your page from your ad—or they happen to arrive there organically—you want to be sure your information is accurate and complete. The more details you provide on your page, the faster potential customers learn what you have to offer so they can decide to do business with you. Start with the basics: your location or service area, your hours, and the best way to get in touch with you.
