43. What is Category targeting? Category targeting allows you to target the Display Network using tightly themed ad groups The theme of the ad group dictates what site your ad will appear on Unlike Google search the keywords do not dictate where your ad shows, only the overall theme of the ad group (so you can have duplicate keywords) You can see in the placement performance section of the AdWords interface which sites your ad is appearing on and how it is performing for each site You can build category targeted ad groups using the Category Targeting Tool (CTT) 28

What / Where With this launch, mobile banner ads will appear on the mobile YT website at the top of the home page, search results pages, and browse pages. A demo of how this will appear is here.Note that this monetization launch is for the mobile website ONLY (e.g., m.youtube.com). No monetization will occur at this time on the YouTube Mobile App (for Windows Mobile and S60 platforms) or through third party apps such as Android and iPhone. Depending on the user's device, the ads may be served as 300x50, 216x36, or 168x28 (all are standard MMA formats). The entire unit is a clickable link, and can link to either an advertiser's YouTube channel page, or to an offsite location. In addition, each ad unit will feature a clickable text link below the ad, with up to 23 characters of text. The text will link to the same destination as the banner ad.Why? YouTube mobile ads provide unprecedented reach for mobile display advertising. This launch makes YT by far and one of the largest single site buys across the mobile web. The alpha pilot also performed very well, with high CTRs. See stats below for more details.Reporting: Each campaign will be followed up with full DoubleClick reporting, including exact number of impressions served and the performance (CTR) of the ad units.
Separate Campaigns to Better Manage MobileCreate separate Mobile campaigns. This allows you to customize the ads, keywords and bids specifically for High End Mobile DevicesStrong Mobile Call to Actions will Increase Performance Having a compelling mobile call to action can dramatically influence your CTR. All types of Landing Pages Work with High End Mobile Devices…including WAP.iPhones/Android work well with both mobile Web sites and regular desktop Web sites. To ensure proper performance, make sure that the landing page matches the keyword search query. iPhone devices do not render Flash.Think About How a User Would Search for Your ProductMobile users typically enter no more than two to three words per query. Use broad matching and general keywords to maximize ad impressions. Keep it simple.Analytics and Conversion Tracking Work on MobileUse conversion tracking, even if you are not selling anything on your mobile site. This way you can learn how effective your ads are and if they result in specific site activities. Be Aggressive When Bidding on MobilePrepare to bid 2x higher to get on the first page of search results. You will be competing to have your ad serve on 5 ad spots vs 10 for desktop. This makes these ads spots very valuable and highly competitive. Use Click to Call feature if you can use it Click to Call is one of the most effective ways to connect to your consumers. We have seen URLs CTR increase by 30% by using the CTC feature.If Targeting Multiple Countries, target only one country per campaignCPCs can vary among different countries, and separate campaigns allow you to tune your bids to each market.
Click-to-call ads allow the user to instantly connect with the advertiser’s business. It’s a hyperlinked number which sits in the ad creative. There are 2 types of CTC ad; national and local. If you have a branch network then you would use local numbers (e.g 0207) which are triggered when a user is within the vicinity of the advertiser’s business. This is implemented by syncing up your Google places with your Adwords account. Alternatively you can manually enter the number and address direct into Adwords (only if you have less than 10 locations). National numbers (e.g 0845) are for advertisers who don’t have a branch network but instead have a call centre. The way you implement this is by entering the number direct into the ad extensions tab in Adwords.Sitelinks for mobile work exactly like desktop the only difference is that there is a maximum of 2 sitelinks for mobile. Sitelinks are great for all types of advertisers and users alike. They are especially useful for highlighting timely promotions (see screengrab). Click to download - If an advertiser wants to promote their Android or iPhone app then they can use this ad format. It’s really simple to implement. You create the ad as you normally would and put the appstore/market place url in the creative and our system will automatically change the display url to say ‘Download from itunes’ or ‘Download from marketplace’ so it’s effectively like putting a call-to-action in your url!Hyperlocal is a really effective format which lends itself seamlessly to mobile. If you have synced up your locations with Google places or entered them in the extensions tab in Adwords then when your ad shows our system adds a Google maps pin into the creative (see screengrab) and also shows how far the user is from the advertiser’s business.
