The following examples show different types of ad writing techniques that can be used to create highly effective, high click-through ads. When writing your copy, you should have a few things in mind. Your goal is to get as many people as possible to click through your ads to your landing page, but you want to do this using techniques that reflect the relevance of your page. Adding keywords like "FREE" in your ads is not a good idea because people that type in "free" into their search queries are not usually going to make a purchase.
If you have not heard of a "call to action" phrase, you will need to familiarize yourself with this term. It is exactly how it sounds; you are calling someone out to take an action. Call-to-action phrases will prompt the user to subconsciously click on your ad. If you want someone to do something, there is no harm in asking and you will find out that asking your customers to do something will greatly benefit you as marketer.

And as we mentioned earlier, posing a question can increase your CTR drastically. Here are some examples of that:
