Phrase Specificity
The more specific the phrase the higher the conversion to sale %. However, there are less clicks available – You’ll need a lot of Keywords in your campaign
The less specific the phrases the lower the conversion to sale %. The more clicks have to occur for a sale to take place – Not a good option for an ROI focussed campaign
