SEO specialists need some help from time to time. I have not work on all of them but let’s see what I can work with.
Google Analytics (GA3 & GA4)
Let’s begin with the basics. Google Analytics is probably the most famous tool used by marketers. It took me some times but I am used to GA4 now, creating new reports, protesting about the ugly graphes and the missing copy & paste.
Outside of those inconvenience, I can work my way on this new essential tool.
Google Ads & Ads Editor
The second child of the family, this is the tool to create your SEA campaigns. I have use it also on daily basis to either create campaigns or improve the existent ones. All of the time trying to find a better keyword, catchphrase or asset to add and make more conversions.
I have created several types of campaigns: shopping, DSA & search. I am most confortable with the search. I like to work on Excel first, the import the file in Google Ads editor, adapt & verify before importing them on Ads.
