What's New in Google Ads 2020

February 16, 2020

Google Change Its "Ad" Platform Fast and Often. Time to Catch up.

It’s no secret that Google is one of the most relevant companies in the world when it comes to figuring out search engine optimization and marketing. After all, there are tens of thousands of searches on Google every single second. It’s hard to downplay that kind of power/influence.

However, there are many consumers all around the world that don’t find exactly what they need. In fact, there is a significant percentage of searches these days that don’t actually lead to any clicks. Companies and organizations are trying to figure out what they need to do to attract traffic on Google and other search engines, and here are some new aspects to consider when creating and curating Google ads.

The Way They Are Displayed

Many companies are consistently trying to figure out how to make sure that their ad feels “authentic” or “organic”. It isn’t the worst mentality, especially when you consider that consumers are constantly bombarded with ads, commercials, banners, and billboards.

One important change to recognize is that desktop search results now have a more organic feel , which might mean that you should change your approach when it comes to meta descriptions and copywriting.

Understand Change History

One of the challenges with Google Ads that many marketers reported is that it was too difficult to understand why one campaign was more successful than the other. One might be able to follow metrics fairly easily - but Google Ads is now making it easier than ever to understand how a marketing campaign may have changed over time.

Specifically, it is now easier to examine change history with respect to a campaign. This can help tremendously in terms of overall content and marketing strategies.

Smart Bidding

It’s difficult to read about business and/or entrepreneurship without running into a technological phrase like “big data” or “artificial intelligence.” After all, many believe that these trends will have a significant role in reshaping the way that we interact with each other and think about “work.” Google understands how important Google Ads is to its bottom line, so of course, the platform has had to evolve with time.

You can now smart bid on automated bid strategies that can help with your conversion rate. In this way, Google Ads is “smarter” than ever, and you can make specific decisions that will optimize bidding.

Organizations are constantly trying to figure out how to take advantage of social media platforms, because they know that consumers are potentially anywhere and everywhere. It’s one of the reasons that corporations are trying to establish a presence on Tiktok, the latest app that is growing extremely quickly in terms of monthly active users. 

However, it’s important to recognize that Alphabet (the parent company of Google) has remained relevant for over two decades now, and understands the importance of changing with the times. There are companies in all sorts of sectors that rely on Google for traffic and revenue, and these features and benefits can prove integral to many marketing strategies in the 2020s and beyond.
