Google Shopping Advertising

 

Since it's inception, Google shopping advertising has come a long way, seeing significant amount of market penetration over the last 5 years. It is a powerful channel that can be scaled and optimized by a number of techniques within search, including contextual feed optimization, query sculpting, Comparison Shopping Service (CSS) selection, profit-focussed bidding and more.

The freemium model has returned to Google too, since Spring 2020, meaning availability of free organic clicks for products uploaded to Merchant Center.

We pride ourselves on our unique approach to shopping campaign optimization at Impression. Our team is comercially astute, looking to maximize overall returns within challanging ROAS/ROI targets. To maximize profitable return, we overlay business data, such as promotional ranges, product margin and stock levels into our strategies where possible.

Trusted by many businesses across the Europe and the UK with their shopping advertising, we are a high performing Google Premier Partner Agency, targeting markets across the world. We were named 'Best Large PPC agency' in the Europe Search Awards in Europe in 2020.

How Google Shopping Functions

 

It is Google's very own advertising network that allows you to place your products infront of the people who are ready to buy them.

Shopping relies on the feed you input to inform it on what products are included and for which queries they should therefore be displayed rather than bidding on keywords, unlike other AdWords (Google Ads) platforms.

This means that advertisers need to use correctly formatted and optimized shopping feeds to upload their information to Google, for the best chances of being displayed for the correct queries.

Other areas of information about your products, such as prices, sizes, review stars and much more can also be incorporated in your shopping feed. We are experts in optimizing shopping feeds as a Google Premier Partner agency, to get the most out of your product features in the SERPs.
