How to create personalized website experiences for paid search campaigns

Personalization is a powerful tool that can help brands maintain a consistent message while tailoring their marketing efforts to their specific audience. That's why it's an essential part of search ad campaigns.

By tracking user interactions within your ads, you can gain insights into your customers' interests and preferences and use this information to create a more meaningful and impactful user experience on your website.

A good way of doing that is dynamically changing the landing page copy and images to match specific search terms.

Follow these steps to learn how to do it using Croct’s personalization engine:

First, access your Workspace, then click Experiences and New.

Now, we'll show you how to segment users based on specific campaign attributes to create a new audience, select the slot where you want to deliver this communication, and the content you’ll display to users coming from a specific campaign.

Audience

Click on New audience and enter a CQL expression that matches the target audience. You can use our campaign variable to segment your traffic. Here are some examples of segmentation criteria:

• campaign's source is "google"
• campaign's term matches "some search term"
• campaign's term matches "some search term" and campaign's source is "google"

Slot and content

Slots are any personalizable elements of your application.

Some popular choices are the hero section, product cards, and subscription plan cards. Still, you can also personalize any page section to include targeted information.

Select the slot you want to personalize, and finally, click on Content to specify elements such as images, copies, and button colors you want your audience to view. Be creative, and don’t forget to match the offer you’ve shown users on your ads.

Extra options

After creating an audience of users who viewed your ads, and defining both the Slot you want to personalize and the content you want those users to view, everything is almost up and running!

You can also prioritize this experience over others, choose a different time zone, and schedule its start to whenever you prefer.

Next, publish your experience or go to the preview to see the magic happen!
