Now a days almost all the consumers in the world have become Digitalized. We spend most of our time surfing the net. Reading and engaging in the activities on the web. So by using this Google Display Networks, Companies can reach their target audience as well as potential consumers effectively and efficiently.

What Google Display Network does?

  • It increases awareness among the consumers by displaying company ads among its target consumers. Increasing clicks on this display ads will generate more awareness about the company. Potential consumers can get an understanding about the company as well as their products.
  • It generates more sales for the company by displaying ads to the relevant audience. Google Display Network suggests the sites that a company must display their ads based on the consumer preferences. So it has a more potent of having more sales.
  • It creates loyalty among the consumers.

Different Ad Formats Offered by Google Display Network


Companies should use Google display network if their products match with the content of the websites in the Google display network. Also it is very important that companies should experiment with the Google display ads on websites with a smaller budget to see if the company can have any success.

If a company is interested in Google Display Ads, their ads will appear on websites that feature content related to their ad. But the challenge when advertising on Google display is that sometimes people tend to ignore this ad and then effectiveness of this ad campaign will reduce.


Therefore if a company considering advertising on the Google display, they should strongly consider starting with a lower budget and experimenting to see whether their ads are getting relevant placements and achieving a sufficient click-through rate. The company can also choose to manage the websites that the ads will appear based on their own preferences on the Google display network.
