Introduction to Search Ads 360
Search Ads 360 is a search engine ad management platform that helps advertisers manage advertising campaigns using different search engines and advertising channels.
The platform not only facilitates the creation and management of advertising campaigns on Google, but also analyses search engine ads and in turn improves campaign results.
Without Search Ads 360, each account manager would have to manage ads and keywords across all search engines, making it more difficult to analyse campaign performance across search engines.
How Search Ads 360 works
With Search Ads 360, it is possible to manage the search and social media campaigns of multiple advertisers in a single account (agency network).
Each advertiser has its own set of search accounts and campaigns, as well as its own set of users, who have access to view reports and edit settings.
Reporting can be done at the level of specific Search accounts, individual clients or even for the entire network of advertisers, depending on the permissions granted to the Search Ads 360 user account.
Search Ads 360 provides real-time response through up-to-the-minute data and bid optimisation, and creates linked campaigns so that in one place you can see the results your Search ads are achieving across all channels.
