Ad Group
An Ad Group is a container within an online advertising campaign that holds one or more ads and keywords. It helps organize and target ads to specific audiences, improving the relevance and performance of your advertising efforts.
What is Ad Group?
An Ad Group is a structured container within a digital advertising campaign that organizes closely related ads and keywords to reach a defined audience segment. By clustering themes, messages, and match types, it aligns search intent with creative, elevating relevance, Quality Score, and return on ad spend. Clear taxonomy enables precise bid strategies, negative keyword governance, and scalable testing of copy and landing pages. For B2B marketers, architected ad groups reflect buyer journeys, industries, and solutions, improving lead quality and cost efficiency. Treat each group as a focused micro campaign, with coherent messaging and measurement, to drive predictable, optimized performance.
Example
Create an Ad Group for \”Running Shoes\” within your sportswear campaign. Include ads promoting different running shoe models and use keywords like \”best running shoes,\” \”lightweight running shoes,\” and \”running shoes sale.\” This way, your ads show to people searching specifically for running shoes, increasing the chance they click and buy.
