Take a look at your own ads and see where you can add the word “your” or its variations: you, yours, for you…

What was your choice? I’m interested to learn why you chose what you chose, put it in the comments below so everyone can learn.

Best practices say you must add your keyword in the first headline. Best practices are often wrong, and often lead to average results. Look at your own ads and see if you’ve stifled your results following best practices.

It is good to challenge some “best practices” from time to time as consumers approach to ads and search evolve. I think for this particular ad, using the spacer “|”, having the headline easily flow together as if it’s one sentence, and having the description offering an opportunity at helpful information vs. direct product sell approach may be helping to increase its CTR.
