The Principle of Operation of the GDN

GDN (Google Display Network) is a whole system of various platforms for advertising, including foreign ones. GDN is a Google advertising service that covers many countries around the world, more than 2 million platforms, including YouTube. This is the largest affiliate network in the world. The task of GDN is to show users advertisements based on their interests, gender, age, solvency and other characteristics. For example, publishing ads to young mothers, potential buyers of children's clothing.

Advertising in the Display Network is a great option for anyone who wants to convey information about products or services, their cost, promotions and discounts to the target audience. With the help of the Display Network, it is convenient to return the client to the website, push him to purchase a product or order a service. The Display Network works like this: when a person types certain search queries in Google, after a certain time he begins to see personalized advertising on various sites, such as partner sites, video ads on YouTube, leads on a smartphone. In these ads, a person sees the product he was looking for, goes to the site and makes a purchase or leaves a request. Such advertising is cheaper than search, but is quite effective. As a result, contextual advertising setup works as a scalable growth channel, not a one-time campaign.

GDN Configuration Process

After the preparatory stages and coordinating keywords and ads with the customer, we proceed to setting up the ads. Google contextual media advertising has several ad formats (types of ads):

  • Image ads. These are banners that can be static or animated. You can publish ready-made images or create them using Google's built-in designer.
  • Video ads. The advantage of this format is that the advertising is the most informative, it is displayed on websites, on Youtube channels. Such advertising helps to tell as much information as possible about your product, to convey its value to the buyer.
  • Text. Currently, there are expanded text ads and adaptive ads. Such ads consist only of text and are shown in various services, such as Gmail.
  • Adaptive ads. Adaptable Depending on the type of platform, both graphic and text versions of the ad can be shown. The system itself generates the required ad and adapts it to the conditions of the advertising platform.
  • Multimedia ads. This is a harmonious combination of text and graphics. Such ads consist of video, animation, text. They help to provide a closer connection between the user and the ad.

When planning an advertising budget, it is important to choose the right strategy. It depends on the type of product being advertised and the goal. There are different types of payment that we choose during the process of setting up advertising. Payment can be for:

  • 1000 impressions (CPM). Payment occurs when the user has seen the advertisement by more than 50%. This strategy is suitable to make your brand or product more recognizable. To attract the attention of potential customers.
  • each click (CPC). Each click on an ad with a transition to the site is paid for. Suitable when you need to attract traffic to the site so that the client performs a target action (call, application, purchase, subscription)

The price per click and impressions can be set manually or automatically. But, as a rule, our specialists use only the strategy with manual bidding. And in the process of advertising, they constantly make adjustments depending on the situation and results. This helps to achieve maximum efficiency of the advertising campaign.
