A must have for every business
So far I have had an amazing experience with Google Ads as customers and clients have been searching for our products. The customer service support is really good and the Google Ads guide is east to understand. It has helped me managed my Instagram and Facebook Ads. It is also very affordable.
PROSGoogle Ads is very useful in my business since it helps me in advertising, in this era of digital advertising it is very intuitive. The bidding strategies are flexible enough for a variety of businesses which makes carrying out different campaigns way easier. Real time tracking has also been made easier. Customers and clients can easily find our products online.
CONSThe features are very complex and overwhelming tile I had to do short courses to know how to manage the Google Ads. It takes a lot of time to start a new ad, and this could take even a week before i begin realizing results.
Reason for choosing Google Ads
It came in handy after my Facebook Ads account was suspended.
Reasons for switching to Google Ads
I now have control of my campaign goals and can monitor how customers and clients are searching for our products.

Google Ads for Nonprofit is Fantastic but Difficult to Implement
My organization and I re so grateful for the opportunity to participate in the nonprofit google ads grant program. Though it has been a rocky road with some unfortunate and unaddressed issues we have seen a great benefit. Of all my raves my only rant is the complete absence of customer support and help but if you stick with it you can eventually figure the system out and make it worth your while!
PROSSo grateful for the opportunity to participate in the Google Ads Grant program for nonprofit organizations. Such a huge help to nonprofit organizations who couldn't otherwise afford these opportunities.
CONSGoogle ads are very difficult to get up and running. I actually had an issue where my nonprofit was charged over $1000 incorrectly after receiving the google ads grant and could not get anyone to help rectify the situation after spending days trying to make contact with literally anyone! While that amount may seem small for a start up it was huge and discouraging to be unable to receive help.

Business owner's bestie
I appreciate the customization and smart AI features within Google Ads. The process of finding a set up that aligns with my goals is easy enough. It can be a lot to figure out for beginners (it was for me) but I recommend jumping in as soon as you can because, if you rely on internet traffic, it truly affects the growth of your business.
PROSThhis is essential to grow your business presence online. It's one thing to have your business listed on Google and its another thing to be capturing leads and actually selling through your online presence. Google Ads helps you grow, plain and simple!
CONSYou get as much out of it as youre willing to invest. I've seen benefits from setting up multiple campaigns with higher budgets and gaining quick growth. Yet, that is not necessarily sustainable. Success can come as slow or as fast as you want.

The best marketing channel we have!
We have been using google ads for over a year and have spent quite a large amount during this time. After switching from facebook ads,quora ads and Microsoft ads, our CPA and quality of leads has never been higher!
PROSHas a plethora of campaign type options PPC, Display, Video, etc. This along with the volume of searches and reach that google platforms have, google ads have changed our marketing strategy completely. Google ads lets us fine tune the parameters in the campaign to an unbelievable degree. This has allowed us to target a hyper niche audience.
CONSIn India it charges 18% GST. This eats up the budget very rapidly. It also gives very subpar recommendations which are sometimes optimized to google's own objectives to make money.
Reason for choosing Google Ads
Google ads proved to give better returns over a long period of time.
Reasons for switching to Google Ads
Because google ads gave us more conversions and sales. At least 10X to 15X what we were getting on facebook. We were also able to target the right people at the right time, through the right channel.

The Most Powerful and Precise Tool on the Internet, Whether for Small, Medium or Large Business
I will report my experience with Google and be as emphatic and comprehensive as I always am when reviewing or commenting on something. Anyway, Google ads... I just have to thank this magnificent tool. I can strongly say that it was Google Ads that changed my life. I ventured into Digital Marketing 2 to 3 years ago and had a hard time trying to make my family better and get out of the tight spot we were in financially. Difficult times, however... With a lot of focus and learning the functionality of this tool, little by little and over time, I learned the usability and in which segments I should keep the ads. I didn't have any money, but Google Ads is even good at that, I could use the tool all month and pay later, so they charged cards I borrowed from real friends or my Parents. Reluctantly, of course. But I always invested the least. I even used multiple accounts to get a free coupon... Anyway, to cut it short... I hit an ad that generated some sales in the month. And it was with the help of Google, pointing me to places, people, genders, gender, age group, and keywords they were looking for about the product that I advertised. This helped me a lot, because from these sales I managed to follow up on the ads and always improving. Thank you Google Ads.
PROSWhen it comes to quality as a whole. Google Ads surpasses itself, in my opinion it is a very powerful and very accurate tool. It's amazing how quickly the tool delivers a report to us. We raise some ad campaigns on a weekly basis. And every day we keep an eye on the segmentations and analyzing in real time how our campaigns are running, so we can more efficiently and accurately optimize our goals for a more specific target audience. Super smart tool with hundreds of features to use. The most impressive thing is that we don't need to invest a lot to get good results in our campaigns. This is sensational. I have to say that the support has also been fast and very helpful. Since I ventured into working with Digital Marketing, I've been constantly receiving emails from Google Ads support even without asking. In the beginning, I still didn't have much practice, so I received email from several experts at Google to help me. If it weren't for these people, I wouldn't have achieved my goals. Nowadays, we only follow our older campaigns, because the tool shows in detail who accesses our pages. The GLOBAL TAG configured on our websites, this is extremely powerful and incredibly accurate.
CONSWhen it comes to Google Ads, I have no complaints. However, for many inexperienced people who reach the tool, they end up with difficulties in handling it. Because there is a lot of information inside the platform. Lots of buttons and graphics. It ends up getting complicated to work alone in Google Ads. Therefore, it is viable to learn from someone who knows all the features and benefits of the platform. I think that's it, I don't have a problem with Google Ads, but it's too complex for someone who is starting to advertise their company online.

The most powerful advertising platform that helps bring in the best traffic and interaction
Google Ads does a great job of helping us manage all of the steps we need to take to create an integrated advertising campaign. It also helps us get more traffic and get a good return on our ads.
PROSI like that Google Ads settings are simple and that its services are efficient and reliable, allowing anyone, including individual users, to deliver their ads to the largest possible segment of interested people at the lowest possible cost, and with the best possible Google support, which is difficult to match with other competing platforms. I like that there are ready-made templates available, as well as the opportunity to use them to quickly generate creative concepts and inventive advertising methods. I like how it integrates with other Google apps, as well as how easy it is to use and share on various social networking sites. I also like how you can utilize search engines to identify keywords to publish your activity through, and how you can analyze data by exporting it to Google Analytics. It's fantastic to set up a campaign and measure and analyze traffic, as this allows you to evaluate how well you've done with your outreach and what improvements you need to make for future campaigns.
CONSI had no negative experiences with Google Ads, and this is due to its integration with Google applications, which simplifies all of the steps, as well as receiving full-featured support from Google, which includes educational materials and direct assistance, as well as reasonable subscription prices.

Google ads review
Overall, it is satisfactory.
PROSThe most important thing is the budget flexibility of Google Ads., ie. small as well as big budget people can use this for their product promotion. The ranking using multiple channels of Google is an added advantage for campaigning comparing to other similar platforms. The way we can track our ads in Google Ads is very professional. We can get all details in the tracking dashboard, for example- number of clicks, conversations. cost per conversation etc. Another advantage is its precision, in the location, time, day, keywords etc. It is very straightforward, ie. if someone type a keyword on search engine and if the keyword matches with ours it is very advantageous for us(campaigner). For small business it has simplicity. It will give faster website ranking compared to the normal longer periods. Demographic targeting is an added advantage of this platform - it specify features like age, gender, income, exemption etc. The automated and manual features for bid is also a very good part of Google Ads. It will bring the website on top of the first page of the search and thus no fear of competition. User friendly dashboard. Conversion rate is higher in this platform.
CONSCost per click is higher in Google Ads comparing to other similar platforms. For beginner (in using Google Ads) the plat form is confusing and very complex to use and may lead to mistakes which will affect their ads. Expensive keywords. Initial budget is higher for beginners. Sometimes the traffic on the web site may be high, but it will be non-prospective and unqualified one, this will results in loss on the part of campaigner. Have to continuously test and track the campaign for a a long period to get good results. For some sector or businesses the number of clicks will be very less, so they to pay for a longer period.
Reason for choosing Google Ads
Did not choose any other alternative.

Google Ads is a great tool that has helped me to reach my goal of driving more traffic to my business.
PROSGoogle Ads is an incredibly powerful and versatile advertising platform that I enjoy using. I like that it allows me to target my advertisements to specific audiences, so I can tailor my campaigns to reach the right people. I also appreciate how easy it is to set up and use, with its intuitive interface and simple navigation.

Lastly, I like that it is cost-effective, enabling me to maximize my budget while still reaching my desired audience.
CONSThe automated settings were not successful in my experience, leading to a lot of wasted ad spend. The keyword research and targeting process was laborious and hard to manage. I also had trouble tracking my results and distinguishing between effective and ineffective ads. Moreover, the pricing structure was more costly than other platforms.

Google Ads Review as a digital marketing channel
Google Ads campaigns are the foundation in the world of digital marketing. And it doesn't really matter if you want to or not. The advantage is that everyone can run a campaign. It's not the case that campaigns run in this way are beneficial for everyone, and not everyone can optimize them.
PROSGoogle Ads provides a huge opportunity to reach both new customers, to re-reach as part of a remarketing strategy. I consider the greatest advantage to be the advanced technical possibilities for targeting and campaign management.
CONSComplications for me are often caused by meaningless rules, incorrectly automatically disapproved ads automatically, complex settings or slow system response.

As someone who does PPC for a living, Google Ads is where I spend 90% of my time at work and I wouldn't have it any other way.

D.I.Y. Advertising Optimization: Google Ads
Overall, Google Ads is a great tool to grow your advertising campaign without the need for a professional. Anyone can dive into the many creative options and price plans that Google has to offer. Perhaps doing a bit of research on advertisement analysis beforehand would be ideal if you want to get the most from the app and all that it has to offer..
PROSI mostly like Google Ad's ease of choosing your intended geographical targets. Narrowing that type of option really has made a huge impact in successful customer engagements, increasing web traffic and exposure. I also enjoy and feel good about choosing the amount of money that I'm willing to spend on my advertising campaign. You are completely in control of your spending to meet your needs and that amount can be adjusted at any time you desire.
CONSThe downfall of Google Ads for me personally is the lack of an explanation when it comes to deciphering the many analyses. I am willing to invest some time in learning how to get the mostf from this software but the direction to do so is lacking. A user would almost have to be pre-exposed to the analytical terminology and how to gain insight from these measurements.
Reason for choosing Google Ads
It was easy to set up and have running in no time. The pricing was very accommodating as well as controllable options available.

Google ads. We need to accept is the only search engine at people's mind.
You need to be there because almost every people do a search over Google and the first results will be ads. You'll spent a lot of time learning how to do a really good ad and understanding the difference between all of the different type of existing ads an campaign types but is better than just follow the Google automation to start your campaigns. It's a good complement with your social campaigns.
PROSWorks immediately since Google is the most common search engine. High conversion rate (people is already looking for your product / service). Keyword planner an keyword analysis. Advertise also on YouTube. Integration with a lot of services to do management. Only pay for clicks (not for showing your ads).
CONSWaste of budget due to non intended clicks. (just looking / competitors / bots / others). Lack of strategy could lead you to use excessive keywords or combine ad-sets/campaigns. Too much settings. Too much micro management. Time consuming.

Google Ads has been great
Over all it is a great program to use. if you are starting you business and you do not have a big budget to start with your best bet to get some traction with you business is google ads. the cost per click is a lot lower than other options and you will still get some sales because there are a lot of people looking up things on google.
PROSWhat I like most about google ads is the cost of it is a lot cheaper than other platforms I use to push ads. We promote our services and products on google ads and it keeps our cost pretty low to get enough data to start pushing more expensive ads on other platforms.
CONSWhat I like least about google ads is how hard it is to set up certain things in specific google merchant account to google ads. It took me about two weeks to get it set up, after talking to multiple google reps to help me get it set up. I wish I could be a lot easier to set it up and got waste so much time.
