It’s trickier to showcase promotions in textual content adverts. Advertisers can submit as much as 15 headlines and 4 description strains. Google will then resolve which headlines and descriptions it reveals. The headlines and descriptions for a particular promotion might or might not see many impressions.
Advertisers can pin a headline or description, guaranteeing the popular textual content seems in each advert. Nevertheless, Google tends to decrease the advert rating for these pins, which may end in fewer general advert impressions. Plus, going by means of each advert to pin an asset is tedious.
