22. Expanded Text Ads Best Practice
• Write Specific Copy
• Feature Unique Selling Points
• Connect Your Ad & Landing Page
Make sure your messaging really targets what users will be searching for.
Using your keywords in your copy is a good way to do this.
Think about how you’re different or better than your competitors. Use
those unique selling points – like a promotion you may be running or “free
quote” as the basis of your ad copy
Your ad should click through to a page that has the same messaging. If
people click on an ad that says, “Get 25% off striped socks today” then
they should land on a 25% off striped socks page

25. Why Use ‘Em...
Ad layout with ad extensions
o Increase visibility
o Better qualify customers
o More return on investment
o Be relevant
Each new ad extension results in a 10-15% CTR uplift (on average) for your search ad text.
