10 Google AdWords Announcement Predictions We Hope Come True
Google is hosting a livestream today on the AdWords blog hyping a big announcement that they plan to make around AdWords at 9am.
While Google hasn’t made it clear what AdWords changes are coming, it does note that “we will announce 10+ new AdWords products, features, and research studies that we have worked hard to develop over the past year”.
As part of its hype for the announcement, Google noted changes will involve device use, content and connecting people:
- It’s no longer about devices. Consumers are constantly connected, and the average American today owns four digital devices and spends 60 hours per week consuming content across platforms.* In this multi-device world, the way people use desktops, laptops, notebooks, tablets, and smartphones is blurring. This means people don’t think about which device they’re using, they just expect the right content to appear seamlessly wherever they are ready to engage
- Context matters more than ever. The ways people connect — whether that’s on a computer, a mobile website or an app — have become increasingly important in showing people the right content — and the right ads. With more insight into people’s contexts, we can make more meaningful connections and create better consumer experiences.
- Connecting people to content. With more consumer touchpoints than ever, it can become increasingly complex to reach people in the moments that matter. At Google we work hard to develop innovations that let technology do the hard work so that businesses can focus on reaching their customers. ” – Google
