What are Google Ads?

 We can break Google Ads down into 4 different categories across the Google platform:

  1. Google Search Ads, or Search Engine Results Page (SERP)
  2. Google display ads
  3. Google shopping ads
  4. YouTube ads

Google Search Ads:

This is the Google Ad that most people will be familiar with. Paid ads are given priority ranking above organic search results.

Google Display Ads:

These ads display on the Google Display Network. They will show predominantly as product images that are intended to stop the user from scrolling.

Google Shopping Ads:

These ads appear in both the Google search results page and the shopping tab. This is usually a tangible product listed on an e-commerce site. For example, if a search user types in 'office chair' on Google, a series of office chairs will appear with pricing and will be available to purchase.

YouTube Ads:

Did you know that Google owns YouTube? Therefore YouTube ads are created using the same Google login.

One of the key advantages of YouTube Ads is that you're reaching a different audience / demographic compared to Google Ads, Facebook and Instagram. It’s quite common that someone will watch lots of YouTube videos on a daily basis, but they aren’t active on social media and they might not be googling for your specific service.

YouTube has approximately 122 million users every day! That’s a significant audience to be putting your brand in front of. Audiences in specific geographic locations can still be targeted, the same as Google SERP.
