Dynamic Search Ads (DSA) campaigns feature custom-tailored headlines and landing pages that help you reach customers as they search - while intelligently showing your ads against relevant queries. Here are recommendations to get the most out of your Dynamic Search Ads.

Use Dynamic Search Ads to Reach Customers

In this video, we'll cover a couple of key reasons to use Dynamic Search Ads: 1) Reaching customers without needing to maintain a keyword list, and 2) Taking advantage of customized ads.

1. Create Dynamic Search Ad targeting groups based on user behavior

• Use recommended categories as your dynamic ad targets.

Why: Categories are customized based on the content of your site. Ads only match to searches covered by your targets when you have a relevant landing page.

Get started: Create dynamic ad targets for your Dynamic Search Ads.

• Create one DSA campaign per language. 

Why: Your language targeting should match your website’s.

• Consider creating an all-website auto target.

Why: This option ensures that you’ll cover all relevant queries to your site where you also have a relevant landing page.

Get started: Target all webpages when selecting targets for DSA.

• If you want to specify exact pages to target, or how to group them, use a page feed.

Why: A page feed enables Google Ads to determine which pages within your website really matter to you.

• Create different ad groups if certain targets require customized description text, ad extensions or performance goals. 

Why: People are more likely to respond to customized messaging.

• Avoid adding top-performing queries as keywords in other campaigns.

Why: DSA reaches those terms with customized headlines and specific landing pages. Only add as new keywords if you’ll be delivering a better experience.

In this video we’ll talk about the steps that you should be following with your targeting: 1) Use recommended categories; 2) Create an all webpages dynamic ad target; 3) Separate out high-value targets; 4) Create different ad groups for your different targets.

2. Exclude traffic you don't want to be captured by your DSA campaign

• Exclude non-transactional URLs, page content and titles from your main DSA targets. 

Why: Sections like blogs, career pages or out-of-stock/discontinued items might not provide a good return on your investment.

Get started: Create exclusions for your DSA campaigns.

• Look for negative keywords in the search terms report.

Why: Save money by excluding queries that aren’t proving successful.

Get started: View your Search terms report to find terms you want to exclude by adding negative keywords.

 

• Whenever pausing or removing a keyword from another search campaign, add it as a negative to your DSA campaigns.

Why: DSA would cover any gaps in coverage created by a paused keyword, even if it’s a gap you don’t want filled.

Exclude Traffic You Don't Want To Fine-Tune Your DSA Campaigns

In this video, we'll cover how you can accomplish this through a handful of straightforward steps: 1) Exclude non-transactional parts of your site; 2) Look for negative keywords; and 3) Add paused keywords from other campaigns as negatives to your DSA campaigns.

3. Maximize results by combining DSA with auto-bidding and RLSA

• Use Google Ads smart bidding with your DSA campaigns.

Why: DSA’s automated reach works well with automated bidding. Auction-time signals - including the exact wording of a user’s query - can be used to set your bid and improve your performance.

Get started: Apply an automated bid strategy to your DSA campaigns.

• Layer Remarketing Lists for Search Ads onto DSA campaigns.

Why: If users have already expressed an interest in your site, you can set customized bids for those pre-qualified users.

Get started: Use remarketing lists for search ads in your DSA campaigns.

4. Optimize your website for your ads

• Make page titles descriptive and compelling.

Why: Those titles are often incorporated into your automated headlines. You’re convincing users that you have what they’re looking for.

• Let users know what to expect on your pages.

Why: Setting appropriate expectations connects with users that are more likely to convert and helps screen out clicks from people that would never be interested.
