Why Display Ads

Reach that search alone can't buy

35M+

sites and apps make up the Google Display Network.

90%

of internet users worldwide can be reached across the network.

3x

lower average CPMs than search, ideal for scaling reach affordably.

Display keeps your brand visible between searches — nurturing demand and re-engaging people who already showed interest.

FAQ

Common questions

Where exactly do display ads show up?

On publisher websites and blogs, inside mobile apps, and within Gmail's promotions and social tabs — anywhere in the Google Display Network's 35M+ sites and apps.

Is display advertising good for direct response, or just awareness?

Both, depending on the audience. Cold, broad audiences work best for awareness; remarketing lists built from your own site visitors can drive strong direct-response results.

Do I need to supply the banner creative?

We can design responsive display assets and static banners for you, or work from brand assets you already have — either way, sizes are built to standard IAB specs.

How do you keep ads off low-quality sites?

Placement exclusion lists, content and category exclusions, and ongoing placement review keep spend off sites and apps that don't drive quality traffic.

How is this different from your broader Paid Marketing service?

This page is focused specifically on Display Ads. Our Paid Marketing service coordinates display alongside Search, Shopping, and social as one program.
