Shopping & Remarketing Campaigns
Shopping Campaigns
• Used to be called Product Listing Ads • Shopping Ads are more retail centric • These are being rolled into shopping ads by late
August • Display image ads with price and seller as separate
group of ads on Google Search, Google Shopping and most Google Partner networks
• Based on a xml feed of products uploaded to your Google Merchant Center Account
40
Shopping Campaigns
• Base organizational unit is the Product Group • Ads can be targeted by attribute (color, price, size, in
stock, etc) • Custom labels can be created to combine different
attributes • Can set different priorities by campaign if one product is
in multiple campaigns • Has the ability to have dynamically inserted elements • Stock levels • Geo locations, etc
• Can be used for local bricks and mortar locations also

Remarketing Ads and Lists

Remarketing Campaigns
• Ads that appear on partner/display sites after you have visited the target site once
• Text, graphic and/or rich media • Also known as “stalker ads” as they can follow you
around the internet • Can also appear on the search network as text ads
(RLSA)
44
Remarketing Campaigns
• Starts with a visit to your website where the visitor is added to a remarketing list
• You can define remarketing lists based on visit characteristics such as pages visited, items added to cart, cart abandonments, time on site, etc.
• Ads then are created to match the list characteristics. e.g. you browse a site for motorcycle helmets and ads from that site follow you across the web showing the helmets you looked at
• Can help to improve your conversion rates by targeting customers who have already come to your site
45
Remarketing Campaigns
Controls on your remarketing lists for the number of impressions, length of time since last visit, number of times ads are clicked by a user can all help you to limit the “ick/stalker” factor
