Google Ads

Google Ads is Google's advertising platform for campaigns in Search and other supported advertising environments.

How it works

Choose a format and goal according to audience, available assets and reliable measurement.

Example

Example: A Search campaign responds to a query, while another campaign reaches audiences through visual assets.

Common mistakes

Paying for ads does not buy organic rankings.

How can you check this in practice?

Check goals and the relationship between campaign, budget, geography and landing page. Available features depend on campaign type. Run a safe test conversion before relying on measurement for automated bidding.

Distinctions and limitations

Google Ads is an advertising platform; Google Analytics is a reporting system. Linking them does not automatically make every event a bidding conversion. Goal settings and imports need separate verification.
