Furthermore, it is possible to control and increase revenue using pertinent advertisements across a variety of networks via the Ad Manager. Additionally, the CPAs are typically much lower here than they are with other providers. Once the campaigns are set up, they typically no longer require daily maintenance or optimization. Additionally, conversion costs are fairly constant. With its straightforward operation of its basic functions, Google Ads Manager is best suited for use as a campaign

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

I use the Ad Manager, for starters, to create awareness campaigns for our brand's customers. However, it's also to keep up with customers' partners and avoid losing any potential. We can focus on new markets for our customers with the help of the Ad Manager. Additionally, we can switch on video and display ads much more easily and don't need to worry about optimizations all the time.performance marketing manager for Google search engine marketing. This makes it possible for beginners to adjust and work very quickly. The ability to control YouTube advertisements through the Google Ads Manager is undoubtedly advantageous.

What do you dislike most about this product?

The best browser for using the Ad Manager is Chrome, as the name suggests. I'd experienced issues loading or displaying tools in Safari or Firefox more frequently. The loading time is too long for me then. It would be great if we could introduce more individuality at the level of ad groups as well. It bothers me that irrelevant keywords are rarely recommended. Even though Google now recommends them, responsive advertisements are frequently underutilized! It has already happened frequently that technical difficulties with campaign setup resulted in the need to enter all the data again. I'm completely satisfied with the tool aside from that.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

We use Google Ads Manager to create campaigns and advertisements as part of our search engine advertising (SEA) marketing activities. The ability to activate YouTube advertisements through Google Ads Manager and use the information obtained from SEA campaigns on Google for YouTube retargeting are the two main benefits. We switch almost all of our search and display advertisements to Google, in addition to the YouTube advertisements, of course. I think it's fantastic that improvements are made on a regular basis and that the Google Ads Manager is constantly evolving. Good and reliable advertisers can be found in Google Ad Manager.

This prevents my clients' ads from being clicked on by out-of-country visitors, VPN users, bots, and other sources that can waste ad budget. This allows my clients to appear in popular digital spaces while maximizing their ad spend.
