Google Shopping Ads
Shopping ads are prominent visual ads that display product information at the top of Google search results. They're created using data attributes from the product information on your website and are shown to people who are already searching for the kinds of products you advertise; often resulting in high conversion rates. An estimated 87% of shoppers look for information online before visiting a store with a further 35% of shoppers searching for information after visiting a store. Google Shopping ads play a role at all stages of the customer journey and are critical for any ecommerce business wanting to achieve visibility and sales online. Our strategy-first™ approach and experienced team of paid search specialists have achieved over 21 times return on ad spend (ROAS) with shopping ads for ecommerce clients.

Google Shopping Ads & Management
Google Shopping Ads appear at the top of Google search results and include rich product information, such as a product image, name, price, brand and business (merchant) name.

Google Shopping Ads: Right Product at the Right Time
Consumers, now more than ever, are researching products online to make more informed buying decisions. An estimated 81% of consumers research a product online before purchasing (invoca.com).
For retailers, shopping ads account for over 60% of paid clicks, and consistently deliver some of the highest return on ad spend of any paid channel (Search Engine Journal). The low cost and effective targeting capabilities make shopping ads a critical component of every ecommerce brand’s digital marketing strategy. With Google Shopping Ads, brands can ensure their products are front and centre when high intent users are searching online.
At Sentius, we’ve used shopping ads to deliver upwards of 21times ROAS (return on ad spend) for ecommerce clients.
Google Shopping Feed Management
Google Shopping ads are technical, requiring a product feed to be set up, allowing the advertiser’s website to communicate with Google. Establishing the shopping feed and managing the feed on an ongoing basis is key to achieving success through Google Shopping Ads.
Shopping feed management is not as simple as installing a website plugin to create a feed. It’s important to ensure all aspects of the feed are optimised to deliver the best search result, including displaying the correct pricing, highlighting any discounts or promotions, ensuring product imagery is clear and eye catching, and that informative product descriptions are showing. Shipping territories and rates must also be configured in order to show consumers pricing estimates.
Our team of paid ads specialists have the technical skills and expertise to configure and optimise any Google Shopping feed to maximise performance.
Google Shopping Optimisation
Like any campaign, google shopping campaigns require ongoing optimisation to reach peak performance. This can include setting up various product groups, removing underperforming products, applying bid enhancements, deploying various bidding strategies and utilising dynamic product remarketing campaigns.
As a strategy-first™ Google shopping agency, we look beyond your shopping campaigns to optimise website conversion rate and online sales.
Google Ads plays a role in reaching new potential customers and driving website traffic, but when it comes to delivering an easy path to purchase and converting online sales the website plays a major role.
Campaign performance can be limited by website user experience, which is why we assess the user experience and website performance metrics as part of our Google Shopping management services. Our paid search specialists and digital marketing strategists work together to provide insights and recommendations to improve the overall website user experience and ecommerce conversion rate.

Google Shopping Ads FAQs
What is Google Shopping Ads?
Google Shopping Ads are graphical product ads appearing at the top of Google search results. They include rich product information, such as a product image, name, price, brand and business (merchant) name.
What are the benefits of using a Google Shopping company to manage my ads?
The Google Ads platform is very technical (shopping ads specifically) and require a level of expertise and technical knowhow to setup. Items such as structuring the merchant feed in the correct way can greatly influence the performance and costs of a shopping campaign. It’s best to leave shopping campaign setup and management to the experts to ensure they deliver the best results.
