Now that we have spoken about some of the Paid Search basics, it's time to look at how a PPC account is structured and what to keep in mind when setting SEM up for the first time. How to get Started with paid Search First of all you will need to set up an ad account and you should be aware of the general structure of Paid Search accounts. The over-arching level is called the MCC or My Client Center under which you can have several ad accounts (this is handy if you have several brands or if you are an agency who manages Paid Search for several clients). The ad account is where the billing and contact information sits. Each ad account has several campaigns where you can set daily campaign budgets and the objective you want to achieve (online sales or calls or leads, ...). Each campaign has several ad groups. Ad groups are structuring keywords and ads into relevant and common themes. Head over to ads.google.com to set up your Google Ads account if you don't have one yet. Make sure to select the Expert Set-Up. If you want to run Microsoft ads, go to ads.microsoft.com. I recommend to focus on Google Ads for now if it's the first time you are setting up a search campaign, but consider to add Microsoft Ads once you are a little more familiar with how everything works.
