SolideBank uses algorithm to identity and display information on the internet corresponding keywords specified by the users. By using the Google Marketing Platform, the bank plan, execute and measure the search ads campaigns across formats and screens whilst optimizing the digital media experiences.
Increase SolideBank’s ad exposure and web page ranking by:
Implementing Accelerated Mobile Pages to speed up the bank’s mobile web pages and mobile ads across devices through Accelerated Mobile Pages (AMP) and a Mobile-web makeover.
Adding Message Extension
Conversing with potential buyers directly through Search Engine Results Pages (SERPs). This can be used for both Organic and Paid Search Results.
Build quality backlinks and keyword search to re-optimize them for relevant topics with a decent search traffic potential.
Identify pages on SolideBank’s website with the most referring domains.
Targeting top ranking topics that people are searching for in Google
SolideBank incorporated both Organic and Paid Search tactics to their new marketing campaign through the STDC framework.
By using the STDC framework, SolideBank is able to understand their audience on a deeper level, deliver faster smarter marketing, gain more control over their investments and share insights across marketing team.
By focusing on Search, SolideBank will use the search ads to create awareness of the brand, encourage people to click on their website (Think Stage), search ads to drive traffic to web for conversions (Do Stage), and highlight positive product rating. (Care Stage)
The above strategies towards Search will assist consumers to find relevant info to specific questions and will enable SolideBank to assist customers by displaying relevant contents and ads.
Using the data from Search, SolideBank has the potential to discover signals of intent and respond to potential customers with right information for the right moment.
By effectively synergizing the Organic and Paid Search, SolideBank is able to attract a higher click ratio (92% as per Nielsen polls). The more customer sees the brand and product, the more they are to drive engagements and actions. It is all about maximizing reach and visibility. Trust is one of the most important attribute SolideBank can bring to its customers.
The SERP is broken down into different blocks: the top area is dedicated to paid ads, while the rest is organic results. A strong SEO (organic) presence is crucial to gaining visibility, but dedicating some budget towards targeted paid campaigns may help you get seen by people who are later in the decision-making process. (see Campaign Strategy for ConnectWithMe)
Early on in the journey, our audiences may gravitate more towards organic results, such as article links, reviews and research reports. However, if users have a higher intent to make a purchase, they may focus on paid results that are tailored to their needs. Both organic and paid are important to ensure SolideBank is positioned in the right spot on the SERP, especially if consumers are searching on smartphones and tablets.
SERP changes and algorithm updates are designed to improve the overall design and user experience and help SolideBank’s audiences find what they’re looking for quickly and easily. For instance, Google has included elements, like as the Featured Snippets section, which extracts excerpts from articles and webpages that seem to answer user queries.
The latest updates to Google’s algorithm emphasize E-A-T (Expertise, Authoritativeness, and Trustworthiness). Content on the website, and ultimately the keyword choices, should uphold these principles so Google can designate SolideBank’s site as a meaningful and meaningful resource for users. These keywords should not only be used in the organic content but also for paid campaigns in order to maintain consistency.
For the Ad Strategies, SolideBank will focus on the followings:
Contextual Advertising:
With the removal of 3rd party cookies, ads will need to be more personalized. Data about users is not collected, nor needed to present the right type of ads on the web
Make use of keywords & phrases on the landing page to serve banner or pop-up ads on other websites, in the form of In-Text or In-Context ads.
Extends to display/video campaigns as well, driving content to broader, intended audiences
In-game & In-video contextual advertising on online games and placing commercials on YouTube video demonstration of how to use mobile payment apps
Native ads: Placements to resemble the advertised web, social media and mobile sites’ content
Using DSA Dynamic Search Ads for keyword research:https://www.searchenginejournal.com/innovative-ppc-tactics/330593/
Empowering budgets to support hundreds/thousands of landing pages without needing hundreds of campaigns
Teaching us how our prospects search and at what cost
Smart bidding strategies:
Smart Bidding is a subset of automated bid strategies that use machine learning to optimize for conversions or conversion value in each and every auction—a feature known as “auction-time bidding”
Use Target CPA strategy to define a bid amount that would achieve the highest number of conversions at a specific CPA
Voice Search using AI/ML:
https://digitalmarketinginstitute.com/blog/voice-search-why-your-brand-needs-a-voice-strategy
With voice-optimized SEO, it could mean there will be an increase in traffic as it will appear on the first page or featured snippet
Details and benefits of the new product will be explained using Voice Search
Voice Search will navigate customers on how to open the bank account/register step by step
SolideBank AI team will optimize their voice search site by creating a separate search that is typed and a search that is spoken, to offer deeper context and intent to their customers
Along these same lines, the content should answer as many related spoken, question-based searches as possible
Multichannel retargeting:
https://marketingland.com/integrate-display-search-video-229904
Search –> Search, Search –> Display/ YouTube, YouTube –> Display/Search
Audience data is key to a good PPC (pay-per-click) strategy, and it can be collected from multiple channels. Someone watching or liking one of your videos on YouTube might be used to inform bidding strategy in search; the content you show someone on a display ad could be informed by the landing pages they’ve visited, or by the meta tags of the video they’ve clicked on
Our customer journey,- Cashless Services with ConnectWithMe is a visualization of the interactions a customer makes with our company in the process of conversion. Display and Video Ad Campaigns will kick off new customer journey by highlighting brand offering, encouraging indecisive customers to finally purchase or take valuable actions to our products and remind our existing customers about the brand and encourage a repeat purchase.
Just like Search Campaign, SolideBank use the STDC framework to engage their customers at the different micro-moment stages and connect to SolideBank’s brand strategy.
By adding goals and metrics, SolideBank is able to define their focus accurately at the different consideration stages and using the many different display and video ad formats in the respective display channels.
With a potentially huge reach, display and video ads give SolideBank the chance to reach customers where they are online. Displays and Video ads are highly relevant for new app launches whilst keeping the customer journey in mind.
SolideBank will use the Smart Display Campaign to win more customers with automatically adjusts bids, creatives & target audiences in real time and deliver right message with both standard and responsive display ads.
SolideBank will use a series of the following ads to enhance their campaigns at different consideration moments as stated above (STDC)
Rich Media Ads
Banner Ads including animated ads, pre-roll and interstitial ads
Native Ads, non disruptive paid video, sponsored ads appearing on customers feeds
Bumper Ads and TrueView on Youtube (skippable and non-skippable)
Outstream Video Apps for articles and blogs
Audience Targeting
SolideBank will use the audience targeting method to reach their customers based on gender, demographics, their interest and habits, what they are actively researching, or how they have interacted with SolideBank’s site. Through audience targeting, SolideBank can boost the campaign’s performance by reaching people browsing websites, using apps, or watching videos.
SolideBank will use different target audience strategies at the different consideration stages - Awareness, Consideration & Conversion and Loyalty stages. This is part of the programmatic marketing approach to reach their audiences real time and with impact. (Please refer to the Programmatic Slide 10)
SolideBank has been heavily investing in new digital innovations for their Online Mobile Banking which will address customer needs and leverage SolideBank’s reputation as a Digital Transformation Bank. This will be across the See/Think/Do/Care customer considerations.

Programmatic buying has gone mainstream and it’s permeating every advertising channel - display, mobile, video, search, social and TV. Take a look at the percentage of brands & agencies purchasing programmatically in various media channels:
Display, 84%
Mobile, 60%
Video, 58%
Social, 32%
Search, 26%
TV, 8%
Programmatic buying allows SolideBank to use audience insights and technology to tailor messages to the right person, at the right moment, in the right context.
With programmatic signals, it provides deeper insights of our audience segment. Unlike traditional forms of advertising, programmatic advertising enables marketers to target users based on their signals:
Audience signals: Information about the types of people your campaign is targeted to such as demographics, website analytics and social behaviour
Environmental signals: Information about external factors that might influence the mindset of your customers when they’re exposed to your marketing such as device information, geolocations, weather, news, traffic and events
Media signals: Information about users’ intent and the particular content they’re looking at before your ad appears, including search keywords, videos, websites and apps used, mailing lists, tv and radio ad syncing

Proposed Digital Channel using Programmatic
In Germany, there were more than 47 million digital video viewers in 2019. This number will climb to close to 50 million by 2022, resulting in over 60% of the population watching digital video. Germany has more than 29 million mobile phone video viewers in 2019, and that figure is expected to increase by 1.3 million in 2022.
Programmatic can be a powerful force multiplier for strong creative, but taking full advantage of the technology requires different ways of working. Using our recommended omnichannel advertising space, it will increase SolideBank’s chances of reaching their audience and maximizing advertising budget.
Programmatic Approach Outline:
1. Combining programmatic tactics into a media mix to complement search and social, so each of these channels can play to their strengths. Social media has a lot of inherent audience data, making it a good channel to add to the top of the funnel. Search is usually where users go after they have heard of a product and are looking to learn more, making it an ideal channel for the bottom funnel.
Take inventory of all creatives from our social initiatives as these ads can be directly translated into native assets.
Start with what the team has, test different headlines, body copy and calls to action as needed.
Leverage on creatives from social ads to build our display creatives. Adding the overlay of text and resizing images accordingly to the ad type.
Any audience targeting we had in place in social is easily translatable into programmatic as it has diverse targeting options. (e.g. demand-side platforms (DSPs))
2. Add social to the start of the campaign, along with video, as part of the awareness for the product and services.
Social sign-in to participate, obtain information with auto-fill personal information.
Video ad formats include In-display, Out-stream and In-stream video ads
3. Include native ads to educate, inform, and drive users to want to learn more about what SolideBank’s new ConnectWithMe banking app has to offer.
Through contextual targeting using programmatic buying with native ad teasers and high impact formats (large display or video) to gain awareness, recall, and click throughs.
4. Using the audience pool that we gathered from our search and programmatic campaigns, we will retarget the visitors with Display Ads to drive them towards the campaign landing page directly on the ConnetWithMe banking app.
