Creating ads
You can create ads based on a data source or feed. It's recommended that you choose a feed — a file that contains information about products and services. Feeds make it possible to receive more information about products and more carefully configure selection rules.
To create an ad, follow these steps:
- Step 1. Create a campaign
-
In the Create campaign drop-down menu, select Dynamic ads. Create an ad group and choose the data source Site.
Attention.You cannot change the data source after saving the group.
- Step 2. Use additional ad parameters
-
Enter the domain of the site that you want to generate dynamic ads for on the page where you edit ad groups. The site structure must meet the requirements.
Compose a text that will be used for all your ads. You can also add sitelinks, an address, and a telephone number.
The ad title, landing page URL, link that displays, and keywords will be generated automatically.
Note.If the length of a model name exceeds 56 characters, then the end of the ad title will be substituted with an ellipsis.
- Step 3. Configure dynamic text ad targets
-
To generate dynamic ads you can use the whole site or separate pages by entering Dynamic text ad targets. Learn more about dynamic text ad targets.
- Step 4. Set a bid
-
We recommend using automatic strategies for dynamic ads. This way, ads will be served automatically with the goal of producing the most useful traffic from ad clicks.
If you use a manual bid management strategy, then you can set your bid for every page group in the Dynamic text ad target section.
To create an ad, follow these steps:
- Step 1. Upload your feed (product information)
-
Click the Feeds link on the “My campaigns” page and click the +Add feed button in the page that opens.
Enter the name of the feed and select the business type which best describes your product offers. Add a link to the feed file or upload it. Read more about adding a feed.

- Step 4. Configure filters
-
To generate dynamic ads you can use the entire feed or apply filters to choose individual products.
