How to Set up Google Shopping Ads?

Having variety in your ads will allow businesses and digital marketing company Dubai to see which types work better for their brand. While there are strategies that work better for businesses in certain industries, exploring your options helps you see how you can grow your business in the most efficient way.

What are Google shopping ads?

Shopping ads are a type of ad which features detailed information about specific products sold by businesses or advertisers.

Unlike Google Search ads which require in-house advertisers or digital marketing agency Dubai to add the keywords they want to show up for, the keywords for Google Shopping ads are automatically pulled by Google from keywords used on the product titles and descriptions provided in the merchant centre.

Pre-setup: Before you can set up your shopping ads, you, or the SEO company Dubai you hired must have a Merchant Center Account. Follow the steps below to create the account, you may skip these steps if you already have one:

1. Sign up for a Merchant Center account

This account will be used to add your products and launch your shopping ads. You may sign up for an account through Google.

2. Create a shopping feed with your products

Once you create your Merchant Center account, you need to create a shopping feed with your products.

This will require you to provide the following information:

• Product ID
