Goals:
- Generate more user registrations online
- Expand online reach to a female audience
Challenge:
Nabbesh.com was a new concept launched in the Middle East in 2012. Nabbesh needed a way to reach out to freelance job seekers in the most cost-effective manner. At the same time, gain quick registrations.
Strategy & Approach:
Started with Search Advertising, but soon the clicks got expensive and limited. Looking to attract more talents to register we switched over to the Google Display network and never looked back. This strategy enabled us to place ads on relevant job-related websites and improve performance without exceeding the budget. We used contextual text-based ads over image ads to get profitable clicks and low-cost user registrations. Testing multiple website placements and keyword research helped the cost low while still increasing conversion rates. We tested multiple landing page copies in order to find the right mix to boost conversions. Brand Campaign also helped Nabbesh get more low-cost quality registrations across multiple devices and targeting methods.
