Google Marketing

Several exciting Google updates were revealed to us in the Google Marketing Live 2022 event. In this event, Google has given us news about all the critical updates that will come to Google ads this year, and depending on when you are reading this may have already happened.

In total, 10 new features and updates were announced. These updates will be useful for all types of marketers on the platform. 

In this post, we talk about the major updates among these, that will be the most useful for marketers regardless of their department/industry. These include:

An all-new discovery ads format 

Last year in an update, we saw that a feed was introduced in the mobile application. Why was this done though? It is likely that it was nothing but a strategy by Google, in order to test a pattern based on feed, for the consumption of content.

Throughout the first year, there were no ads displayed in the feed. However, the update changes this completely. Now, there is a “Discovery Ad” unit visible. 

According to Google, it is a useful update as more than 76% of the customers like to make discoveries that are unexpected during shopping. For some reason, it significantly enhances their shopping experience.

Bringing images to the search 

Previously, ‘search’ in Google Adwords used to be text only. This is how it has been since the first ad got introduced. However, now Google has decided that it is time to put in some visual content in the ads. 

Apart from featuring an image and a gallery that can be swiped, the images can also be opened for full-screen experiences.

The industries that highly rely on visual communication for the distribution of their content will primarily get many benefits from this unit. 

Automatically create video ads of 6 seconds from longer videos 

By using machine learning expertise, Google has finally ventured into videos. Rather than teaching a device on how to displace voice and faces, they have taught the algorithm how to make 6-second interesting videos out of single 90-second clips. This is referred to as the Bumper machine.

After the video is done with being cut, there are a few modification features that you can utilize by editing it within the browser. This includes colors, saturation, and more.

A reinvention of Google Shopping 

For a long time, Google Shopping was considered to be a nice way to search for products. Now, Google shopping has been integrated with Google Express. As a result of this, the shopping experience has been modified significantly. 

Now, apart from the aggregated ratings from all around the internet, you will also be able to see unboxing videos. Furthermore, local stores that have the product will also be visible. This is indeed a very interesting feature as it makes the shopping experience more interactive and reliable. 

At the same time, the Showcase Shopping Ads reach is expanded further. This allows placement on YouTube or in the feed on Google.

Pros and Cons of Each Type of Playground Safety Surfacing

The choice of playground surfacing is quite varied for the playground designer and customer, who may be implementing it.  These surfaces lie underneath and around the playground equipment and structures and form part of the playground, and need to encompass the safety concerns that come with playground design. When choosing the most suitable surface, reviewing all options is essential as some are better than others, depending on your requirements.  For example, a rubber surface poured in place is ideal for parks with tall structures, whereas loose fill (often wood bark-based) options may be more suitable for the more budget-conscious playground designs.
