Buy Google ads during/after steam sales

Post by forgrin »

An idea for the media team; I don't think they're overly expensive and could help bring us some new people considering we show up 4th-5th on most web searches for aoe3 related stuff. We'd only need them for, say, a week after the steam sales go on.

Hard to tell, I tried using the keyword planner but the data isn't great. It seems to work out to roughly $0.80 for "Age of Empires 3" and $1.40 for "Age of Empires 3 The Asian Dynasties," all other ones have negligibly small search #s (these are per-click). "Age of Empires" itself is ~$1.30. Web traffic seems to jump a bit around the steam sales https://www.google.ca/trends/explore#q=%2Fm%2F02r6wvv. Not really sure if worth, just throwing the idea out there.

Edit: currency in CAN $ so it's about 20% cheaper than above given current exchange rate.

Edit again: if you wanna try it out yourself, go to Google adwords, make an account (just using email), go to Tools-->Keyword Planner.
