Objective:
To evaluate and enhance e-commerce campaigns by implementing effective regional and language targeting strategies in Google Ads, ensuring maximum performance and return on ad spend (ROAS) for international markets.

Deliverables:

Industry Best Practices and Standards:

• Utilize official Google Language Services (GLS) language codes for precise targeting.

• Conduct A/B testing on ad creatives, headlines, and landing pages to ensure optimal user engagement.
• Monitor and analyze competitor activity to identify gaps and opportunities for competitive advantage.

Quality Expectations:

• The report should be detailed, data-driven, and actionable for e-commerce professionals.
