Results & Performance Sharing
a) English Website (Google SEM Campaign)
Since February, we have been continuously optimizing the Google SEM campaigns, and website traffic has shown steady growth.
(Why Google Optimization Was Necessary)
In the early stages, we optimized the landing pages, refreshed the ad creatives, and completed a thorough keyword research process.We consistently adjusted keyword bids and added negative keywords, which led to a significant increase in both PV (Page Views) and UV (Unique Visitors).
The client frequently adjusted the target countries/regions during the campaign, resulting in fluctuations in lead quality and volume. To address this, DMS replicated core keywords and researched localized terms to add region-specific keyword variations, ensuring a healthy click-through and conversion rate across all regions.
As a result, during the period from April to June 2025, performance improved significantly — CPL (Cost Per Lead) dropped by 65%.
Future Optimization Strategy:
1. Maintain stable bidding control to ensure ad positioning above key competitors
2. Continue keyword and competitor research to identify new opportunities
3. Focus on lead quality over traffic volume — emphasizing qualified inquiries over general clicks
4. Reduce CPL through ongoing performance-based adjustments
Optimization Process Overview
1. From January 2023 to May 2024, total website traffic increased by nearly 700%.
2. In June 2024, after internal discussion, the client reduced lead generation from PPC channels.
3. Before June 2024, eSurvey focused its SEM campaigns only on Vietnam and the United States.
4. After June 2024, the marketing team expanded targeting to Nordic countries, APAC, South America, and the Middle East. At the time, we advised the client that the current budget might not support effective performance across such a broad geographic range.
5. From April 2025 onward, after analyzing campaign data, DMS recommended a strategy shift — reallocating more budget toward countries with higher click-through rates and better lead performance.
