Google Media Solutions Series, Part 3: Re-engage your customers while they browse with remarketing and the Google Display Network
Wednesday, October 20, 2010
Welcome to the third installment of the
Google Media Solutions series
. In this post, we will review the
Google Display Network
. The Google Display Network is a large group of websites and blogs that display AdWords ads and allows advertisers to scalably reach their customers at moments of relevance. Clients are using it for direct response, web engagement as well as driving offline conversions.
We have rolled out many new features for the Google Display Network. One that we would like to highlight is
remarketing
. Google remarketing uses custom technology to reach potential customers who have previously visited your clients’ websites. Implementing the remarketing tag is very easy; you simply add a pixel to the clients’ sites. After adding the pixel, you can use remarketing to help capture additional sales or leads by re-targeting users who have already visited the site, and generally convert better and at a lower CPA. To learn more about remarketing and other innovative targeting options on the Google Display Network, you can check out
this post
from the Google Display Network blog series.
We frequently hear some common misconceptions from advertisers about the GDN that we’d like to clarify:
I’ve tried the GDN before - what has changed?:
The Google Display Network has changed a lot in the past few years. Today, the median advertiser gets approximately 20% of their conversions from the GDN at a CPA that is comparable to search.* To drive results like these, we are investing heavily in many new features that make the GDN an effective platform for advertisers with any marketing objective. Examples of features we've introduced over the years include
site exclusions
,
above the fold targeting
,
frequency capping
, and
consolidated view-through conversion reporting
.
The Google Display Network only works for branding:
Contextual targeting and remarketing are just a few examples of great tools that direct response marketers can use to reach potential customers in the later stages of the buying cycle, like consideration and decision. The Conversion Optimizer can also help you generate additional conversions at an attractive cost-per-acquisition (CPA). With powerful tools like these, you can make sure you are capturing all your potential customers as they spend time across the web.
Thanks for reading the third part of the Google Media Solutions blog series. Next week, we will discuss how you can use Google TV to drive results for your clients.
