How to Make a Google Ad Landing Page in WordPress (The Easy Way)

Do you want to make a landing page for your Google Ads campaign in WordPress?

A Google Ads landing page is optimized to help you reach your campaign’s goals. Creating the right landing page is crucial for getting maximum sales and leads from your Google Ads.

In this article, we will show you how you can make a Google Ad landing page in WordPress including the ability to dynamically change content.

Why Make a Google Ad Landing Page in WordPress?

When someone clicks on your Google Ad, you can redirect them to any page on your WordPress website. This might be a page that already exists on your site, such as your request a quote page, product page, etc.

However, sending those visitors to a generic page could confuse them if it’s not closely related to the ad they clicked on. This can cause visitors to leave your site, and you’ll miss out on those sales.

That’s why many successful website owners create customized landing pages for their Google Ads.

This gives you the freedom to fine-tune the page to help you reach your Google Ad campaign goals. For example, if you want to get more sales then you might add a call to action (CTA) button, a form that accepts credit card payments, and powerful social proof such as customer reviews and testimonials.

No matter whether you want to get more sales, generate leads, or reach some other goal, an effective Google Ad landing page will give you a higher conversion rate.

With that in mind, let’s see how you can easily make a Google Ad landing page in WordPress.

This will open the template in a new tab.

SeedProd has full support for dynamic text replacement, so different visitors see a different message based on the search term they used to find your ad. For example, if you’re targeting the keywords ‘summer offers’ or ‘Black Friday’ with your ad campaign, then you might dynamically change your heading to include those terms.

To add dynamic text to your Google Ad landing page, simply click on any Heading or Text block. Then, go ahead and click on the Insert Dynamic Text button.
