Why is Google Ads important?
Google Ads is important because of its massive reach.
- The Google network reaches 90% of all Internet users worldwide, and its search engine receives 5.4 billion searches a day.
- Placing Google Ads is a great way for advertisers to tap into a teeming population of users, and target multiple motivated sub-groups which are already searching for products and services.
Google Ads benchmarks their average return on advertising spend (ROAS) at 200%—which means advertisers earn $2 for every $1 spent.
- With Google Ads, advertisers can quickly set up and execute precisely defined campaigns which ferret out people who are aware of, interested in, will consider, and will buy what they are selling.
- While a campaign is running, advertisers also have the power to spot patterns in metrics and finetune and personalise campaign elements like demographics, keywords, message relevance, and locations to drive more traffic, leads, conversions and sales.
- While it is tempting to create a set-and-forget campaign, you get the best out of Google Ads when you have expert input on up-to-date ad formats, search algorithms, what to automate, and how to track, analyse and optimise campaigns to improve results.
Why is Google Ads important?
Search Ads
3 out of 4 Google users find search ads useful when seeking information.
A search campaign displays your ad when there is a match between what users text, ask, or scan through a Google search engine, and the key words and other parameters of your campaign.
This type of campaign is easy to set up with highly specific targeting, and good for generating leads and sales. Your ad is immediately displayed next to organic search results, and also displayed later even when users have moved on and navigated to other websites or apps on their desktop or mobile device.
Display Ads
Display ads influence 9 out of 10 buying decisions, and 1 out of 2 who click on ads are likely to make a purchase.
A Display campaign serves visually engaging content through static text and images, animations, videos and more.
Display ads are great for all stages of the buying funnel (awareness, consideration, leads and sales), and introduces your brand to people browsing multiple websites and apps. They allow advertisers to increase targeted ad exposure by remarketing to people who have viewed but not clicked on featured ads.
A display ad can appear next to, or in between natural breaks of, viewed content, and linger for a period of time as users visit other websites and apps. Display Ad campaigns can be integrated with search campaigns.
Video Ads
Video ads promote your business on YouTube (the world’s 2nd largest search engine after Google) and other websites. Like display ads, video ads are great for all stages of the buying funnel (awareness, consideration, leads and sales), and introduces your brand to people browsing multiple websites and apps.
Watching a video ad can influence 8 out of 10 people to buy software or an app, and it is predicted that video streaming and downloads will dominate 82% of global internet traffic by 2022.
Video ads can appear before, or during the videos users are watching; even skippable ads have effective recall.
Shopping Ads
Shopping ads yield high ROIs on ad spend, and make up 60% of paid clicks on Google Ads. 2 out of 3 people prefer online to onsite shopping.
These are ads that are displayed on search results and Google Shopping tab.
They are ideal for retailers selling a product inventory, usually physical products, but can also be used by vendors selling digital content like books, music, videos, training packages, movies, and so on.
Shopping ads can be used to promote nearby shopfronts and are excellent for generating leads and sales.

In-App Ads
App campaigns are designed to increase app use from free installations to in-app purchases of subscriptions and products. Google shows App campaign ads on search, display, Google Play app marketplace, and YouTube channels. There are great opportunities for Australian app publishers to increase ads in their apps and also to add in-app payments.
Local Ads
Data suggests that 72% of Facebook engagements happen on local pages, not generic brand pages, and 66% of people on Google want ads personalised to their location.
Localised ads are displayed to Internet users physically close to shops and venues to promote awareness to people at close range, and are great for promoting offers and events, as well as bringing people to your shopfront.
They inform users of your business address and hours. Local area marketing is gaining traction due both to Covid restrictions and the promotion of Buy Local lobbying.
Local campaigns are shown on search, Display, Maps and YouTube channels.
