Summary

Search Ads will introduce AI keyword expansion, a feature that uses AI to expand keywords and deliver ads.

AI keyword expansion delivers ads for search queries that AI determines to be highly relevant to the submitted keywords based on the following factors:
  • Search intent of internet users
  • Relevance to the submitted keywords
  • Content of Responsive Ads for Search assets
  • Content of the landing page, and more
This helps improve ad performance while reducing the effort required to add and optimize keywords.

AI keyword expansion can be configured at either the campaign or ad group level. Further details, including specifications, will be announced at a later date.
