Check it out:
As you can see, our copy describing a benefit was clearly bettered by text highlighting product characteristics. They both attracted very similar attention, but those clicking through our winning ad were in a much better mind set to sign up for our offer.
It’s important to keep in mind that this doesn’t necessarily mean they are more likely to become customers – they were just more likely to give us permission to communicate with them. From there, we then must earn their trust and confidence to make a purchase, which you can learn about here.

[...] There is an SEM/PPC debate brewing! The topic: PPC ad copy. Greg Meyers at SEM Geek has taken the stance that paid search ad copy is overrated. His stance is that keywords, site usability are much more important than focusing on ad copy. Greg says, “Ads don’t move the Revenue Needle.

This just shows what fine tuning in regards to Adwords can do for your campaign. I use adwords frequently and targeted keywords rather than the broad matching works well for us however the punchy nature of the better ad outlining the features and benefits are great tips which I will certainly use. Thanks!
