Paid-ads resources for ecommerce.

The biggest mistake in ecommerce is thinking a prettier site will fix conversion. Pretty is not the same as persuasive. Here's what actually moves the number.

A brand campaign should be the cheapest line in your account. Here's the exact Google Ads setup that took a brand CPC from €0.26 to €0.02 while impression share went up, not down, and the caveat nobody mentions.

Why do my ads look good but not convert? Polish is not performance. The real fix: a sharp angle, a hook in 3 seconds, and built for the scroll. One ad went from 0.9% to 3.1% CTR.

Does a good product sell itself? No. I lost my entire first store at 19 believing it would. Here is the system that actually moves great products.

Should you add more marketing channels for ecommerce? Usually no. Adding channels multiplies chaos. One brand 3x'd revenue from the same two channels it already had.

Cost per lead vs cost per acquisition: cheap leads that never close bankrupt you slowly. Change the KPI and one client doubled lead-to-customer rate.

Most accounts I audit are winning a game that isn't real. The conversions never happened. Here's how to spot phantom conversions and fix the tracking that's lying to you.

A contact form took 9 seconds to load and leads doubled when we fixed it. The small funnel leaks that cost the most, and how to find them to improve your conversion rate.

ROAS vs MER vs blended ROAS, explained with numbers. A 4x platform ROAS can hide a business losing money. Here's the metric founders should actually scale on.

Why your Google Ads CPC keeps rising and the levers that actually lower it. Quality Score moves real money. I've cut CPC 30% by fixing the click, not the bid.

Should you increase your ad budget? Not until the system underneath converts. More spend on a broken funnel just buys more expensive proof it's broken.

Doubling ad spend on a broken system just loses money faster. Why growth is an engineering problem, not a budgeting one.

Most brands blame the budget. The real losses hide in the handoffs between ads, funnel, and follow-up. Here's how to find them.
