Remarketing Setup

What is remarketing in Google Ads and how do I set it up?

Remarketing in Google Ads is a powerful strategy that involves showing ads to users who have previously interacted with your website or mobile app.

How Remarketing Works:

  1. User Visits Your Site: A visitor comes to your website but leaves without making a purchase or taking a desired action.

  2. Tagging Visitors: With remarketing, a cookie is placed on the user's browser (through a piece of code called a remarketing tag), which adds them to a remarketing list.

  3. Targeting Past Visitors: When these tagged users browse the web or use apps within the Google Display Network, they can see your targeted ads.

Setting Up Remarketing in Google Ads:

  1. Create a Google Ads Account: If you don’t already have one, set up an account on Google Ads.

  2. Install the Remarketing Tag: Place the Google remarketing tag, available in your Google Ads account, on all pages of your website. This code adds visitors to your remarketing lists.

  3. Define Remarketing Lists: In Google Ads, create lists based on specific criteria, like visitors to a particular page or users who abandoned their shopping cart.

  4. Create a Remarketing Campaign: Choose 'Campaigns' > '+ New Campaign' > 'Sales', 'Leads', or 'Website traffic' goals. Select 'Display Network' as the campaign type and then choose 'Remarketing'.

  5. Set Campaign Parameters: Define your campaign settings, including budget, targeting, ad schedule, and bidding strategy.

  6. Design Your Ads: Create compelling ads (text, image, or video) tailored to your remarketing audience, focusing on bringing them back to complete an action.

  7. Launch and Monitor: Start your campaign and regularly monitor its performance. Adjust as needed based on results and analytics.

Benefits of Remarketing:

  • Increased Conversion Rates: Remarketing targets users who are already familiar with your brand, leading to higher conversion rates.
  • Brand Reinforcement: Keeps your brand at the forefront of past visitors’ minds.
  • Targeted Advertising: Allows for highly specific targeting based on past user behavior.
