New Discovery Campaigns Use Product Feeds

While Discovery Ads on Google isn’t technically a new concept, the ability to leverage your product feed to tailor these ads around products is. Here’s a quick overview of what Discovery Campaigns are about:

• Ads can show across multiple Google Properties in places where consumers would be browsing their favorite content:

• This campaign would align more closely with display as the placements are visually engaging and based on where they are shown.


• Google intends for you to leverage AI learning and audiences to determine who sees these ads.

Since this "Product Feed Based Discovery Campaign" is new (Google refers to it as a "beta"), you need to start fresh with a brand new Discovery campaign (vs. trying to convert a previously existing Discovery Campaign for this). Consider adding the attributes below to your feed for maximum effect - but make sure these are added to the feed before creating the campaign in Google Ads.

• Add [short_title] to your feed to briefly and clearly identify the product you are selling. This is the time to leave out the variant related information in the title.


• If you have access to lifestyle versions of your products' images, leverage the [lifestyle_image_link] attribute to ensure the images the consumer will see won't seem out of place.
