Eduexplora Case Study

Google Ads Case Study

Client:

Eduexplora

Industry:

Education

Location:

US + International Audience

Objective

To generate qualified inquiries from parents and students interested in premium pre-college and summer academic programs at top universities.

Highly competitive keywords (education + study abroad + summer programs)
Long decision cycle (parents research heavily before applying)
Need to attract high-quality, financially capable applicants
Existing traffic was not consistently converting into inquiries
This is not impulse buying — it is a high-consideration enrollment decision

Strategy

We focused on a high-intent search funnel, targeting users actively exploring academic programs.

Targeted keywords like:
- “summer programs for high school students USA”
- “pre college programs Yale / Berkeley”
- “study abroad summer high school”
Segmented campaigns by:
- Program type (STEM, business, bioscience, etc.)
- Geography (US vs international)
Messaging focused on:
- Top university exposure (Yale, Berkeley, Oxford)
- Academic excellence + career advantage
- Limited seats / application urgency

Execution

Built tightly structured search campaigns (exact + phrase match priority)
Created:
- Inquiry-focused landing pages
- Call extensions for parent inquiries
Implemented:
- Conversion tracking (forms + calls)
- Negative keywords to filter irrelevant traffic (e.g., free courses, low-intent searches)
Continuous optimization:
- Bids adjusted based on inquiry quality
- Ad copy refined based on CTR + conversion behavior
