Create more effective ads for today’s consumer

Consumers are more curious and more demanding than ever before. They expect to get things done faster–engaging with ads that are uniquely relevant to them. In fact, 91% of mobile users bought or plan to buy something after seeing an ad they described as relevant.1 That means it’s critical for marketers to create a wider variety of ads that are diverse.By creating more diverse ads and utilizing Google’s machine learning, your ads will be more helpful, more personalized, and relevant to more people. This means your ads can show more often, reaching potential customers when they’re looking for what you have to offer. We know this kind of optimization works: on average, advertisers that combine Google’s machine learning with multiple creatives see up to 15% more clicks.2Creating relevant ads at scale can be a challenge, and products like responsive search ads, responsive display ads, and Universal App campaigns can help. That’s why we’re introducing new insights to make it easy for you to create the ad experiences your customers expect.Get more out of your responsive search adsResponsive search ads combine your creativity with the power of Google’s machine learning to help you deliver relevant, valuable ads.To make it easier for you to create more effective responsive search ads, you’ll now be able to preview ad combinations as you build them. This shows you what your ads might look like, and you can even browse through them to double-check your work.You can also view reporting for headlines, descriptions, and top combinations to help you see what’s showing up most often on the search results page.New best practices for Search ad groupsApartments.com is a leading online resource for home and apartment rentals. Using responsive search ads, the brand was able to create ads that were more relevant to people at key moments in the rental process. As a result, Apartments.com saw a 10% lift in clicks. ForRent.com, another brand in the Apartments.com network of sites, saw a 16% lift in clicks with a similar strategy.Measure the strength of your adsInnovations like responsive search ads can help you create relevant, personalized ads at scale. However, it can be a challenge to know when these ads have the right amount of information. That’s why we’re introducing ad strength.You’ll see ad strength both when you write a responsive search ad and as a column in Google Ads. Ranging from “Poor” to “Excellent,” this metric measures the relevance, quantity, and diversity of your ad copy. Combined with actionable feedback, ad strength makes it easy for you to improve the effectiveness of your ads.Use ad strength to create more effective responsive search adsAd strength will be available as a column starting in early September, and in the responsive search ad creation interface over the next several weeks. Support for responsive display ads will follow in the coming months.To get started with ad strength, we recommend providing as many distinct headlines, descriptions, and other assets as possible. This will help Google’s machine learning generate a larger number of relevant, effective ad combinations.For a responsive search ad, provide as many headlines and descriptions as makes sense for your business. If you’re having trouble getting started, we recommend focusing on creating at least 5 headlines.For a responsive display ad, provide up to 15 images and 5 logos, headlines, and descriptions per ad.Promote your app at scaleApp marketers are also making the shift to more diverse creative. With Universal App campaigns, Google’s machine learning automatically combines your creative assets with content from your app store page to create personalized, relevant ads at scale.We recommend providing at least 4 to 5 text, video, and image assets in varying lengths and sizes.
