Launched in the year 2012, Google Shopping Ads have become a pivotal part of every successful Ecommerce marketing campaign. These ads are more effective than legacy PPC Google Text Ads for businesses of all sizes. According to a report by Adthena, in Q1 2018, more than 75% of retail search ad spending was for Google Shopping Ads.
Over the past few years, the updates from Google has changed the landscape for paid marketing. With Google Shopping Ads proving to be very profitable for many businesses, they have transformed from an optional promotion tactic into a must-have advertising tool for Ecommerce businesses worldwide.
If you haven’t listed your products with Google Shopping through a Google Merchant account, it should be your top priority for the promotion of the products in your Ecommerce store. Google Shopping Ads will take your sales to another level. The following benefits will persuade you to make a significant investment in Google Shopping Ads in 2019:
1. Enable your Products and Brand to be in Google Shopping Spotlight –
Whether you’re just starting out your business or an established name, the only way to drive consumers to purchase your products is appearing at the top of SERPs (search engine result pages). Google Shopping Ads ensure that your products appear above the organic search results while expanding your brand’s online visibility in a hassle-free and more effective way. Another reason why these ads are so good is they associate prospective customers with your business as the products appear on the basis of the shopper’s keywords. Your products will be displayed to the users who have already shown interest in what you sell.
2. Offer Better Results than Text-based Ads-
A better ROI is what every business expects, especially when it comes to advertising. Google Shopping Ads offer a higher return on investment as your every spend is focused on the right customers. Your ad would be shown only to the shoppers looking for your product.
In term of both, higher conversion rate and better targeting, Google Shopping Ads are more effective than the AdWords text ads. Also, the product images, star ratings and other formatting make them more attractive for users to click.
3. More Qualified Leads from Google Ads –
Google Shopping Ads play a vital role in increasing the quality of your leads by providing relevant product information. Shoppers look for making an informed purchasing decision, and ads with rich information and high-resolution visuals enable visitors to direct to your product page with great enthusiasm for purchasing your product.
Google Shopping Ads help the customer in having enough information within the ad through product name, price, image, your brand name, product star rating and more. Even shoppers who don’t recognize the name of your brand are likely to click on your ad due to the image, rating, and price.
4. Easier to Manage –
In text ads, advertisers need to select and bid on the targeted keywords. On the other hand, Google Shopping Ads eliminate the keyword process entirely and make advertising much simpler. Google selects the relevant keywords are based on the product data feed that you enter in your Google Merchant Center account. The feed updates automatically to ensure your Google Shopping Ads are accurate when they are displayed on Google SERPs.
You send all your product data to Google and it matches the keywords to your products while in AdWords you need to research all the keywords yourself. You can save a lot of time and efforts here.
5. Broader Reach –
As Google chooses the keywords for which it will show your products, you might discover that your products start to show up even for the keywords that you may not have guessed. It helps you to reach more users regardless of which words they personally use for describing the products they want.
Conclusion – The biggest businesses and the savviest minds are allocating more of their marketing budget toward Google Shopping Ads. As a leading Digital Agency in Dallas, we believe that to stay on trend with the competitors, it’s time to revamp your 2019 marketing plans in favor of the latest paid marketing wave.

We firmly believe that the internet should be available and accessible to anyone, and are committed to providing a website that is accessible to the widest possible audience, regardless of circumstance and ability.
To fulfill this, we aim to adhere as strictly as possible to the World Wide Web Consortium’s (W3C) Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 2.1 (WCAG 2.1) at the AA level. These guidelines explain how to make web content accessible to people with a wide array of disabilities. Complying with those guidelines helps us ensure that the website is accessible to all people: blind people, people with motor impairments, visual impairment, cognitive disabilities, and more.
This website utilizes various technologies that are meant to make it as accessible as possible at all times. We utilize an accessibility interface that allows persons with specific disabilities to adjust the website’s UI (user interface) and design it to their personal needs.
Additionally, the website utilizes an AI-based application that runs in the background and optimizes its accessibility level constantly. This application remediates the website’s HTML, adapts Its functionality and behavior for screen-readers used by the blind users, and for keyboard functions used by individuals with motor impairments.
If you’ve found a malfunction or have ideas for improvement, we’ll be happy to hear from you. You can reach out to the website’s operators by using the following email
Our website implements the ARIA attributes (Accessible Rich Internet Applications) technique, alongside various different behavioral changes, to ensure blind users visiting with screen-readers are able to read, comprehend, and enjoy the website’s functions. As soon as a user with a screen-reader enters your site, they immediately receive a prompt to enter the Screen-Reader Profile so they can browse and operate your site effectively. Here’s how our website covers some of the most important screen-reader requirements, alongside console screenshots of code examples:
Screen-reader optimization: we run a background process that learns the website’s components from top to bottom, to ensure ongoing compliance even when updating the website. In this process, we provide screen-readers with meaningful data using the ARIA set of attributes. For example, we provide accurate form labels; descriptions for actionable icons (social media icons, search icons, cart icons, etc.); validation guidance for form inputs; element roles such as buttons, menus, modal dialogues (popups), and others. Additionally, the background process scans all of the website’s images and provides an accurate and meaningful image-object-recognition-based description as an ALT (alternate text) tag for images that are not described. It will also extract texts that are embedded within the image, using an OCR (optical character recognition) technology. To turn on screen-reader adjustments at any time, users need only to press the Alt+1 keyboard combination. Screen-reader users also get automatic announcements to turn the Screen-reader mode on as soon as they enter the website.
These adjustments are compatible with all popular screen readers, including JAWS and NVDA.
Keyboard navigation optimization: The background process also adjusts the website’s HTML, and adds various behaviors using JavaScript code to make the website operable by the keyboard. This includes the ability to navigate the website using the Tab and Shift+Tab keys, operate dropdowns with the arrow keys, close them with Esc, trigger buttons and links using the Enter key, navigate between radio and checkbox elements using the arrow keys, and fill them in with the Spacebar or Enter key.Additionally, keyboard users will find quick-navigation and content-skip menus, available at any time by clicking Alt+1, or as the first elements of the site while navigating with the keyboard. The background process also handles triggered popups by moving the keyboard focus towards them as soon as they appear, and not allow the focus drift outside of it.
Users can also use shortcuts such as “M” (menus), “H” (headings), “F” (forms), “B” (buttons), and “G” (graphics) to jump to specific elements.
We aim to support the widest array of browsers and assistive technologies as possible, so our users can choose the best fitting tools for them, with as few limitations as possible. Therefore, we have worked very hard to be able to support all major systems that comprise over 95% of the user market share including Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Apple Safari, Opera and Microsoft Edge, JAWS and NVDA (screen readers), both for Windows and for MAC users.
Despite our very best efforts to allow anybody to adjust the website to their needs, there may still be pages or sections that are not fully accessible, are in the process of becoming accessible, or are lacking an adequate technological solution to make them accessible. Still, we are continually improving our accessibility, adding, updating and improving its options and features, and developing and adopting new technologies. All this is meant to reach the optimal level of accessibility, following technological advancements. For any assistance, please reach out to
