Optimising your product titles
• People read from left to right, likewise Google weights title and descriptions terms from left to right.
• If you design your product titles and descriptions based on this logic, they are more likely to show up for the queries you want them to.
• Depending on your product the title might follow the general format of: “Brand, Gender, Product, Color, Size.”

Optimising your product descriptions• Product descriptions are very similar to product titles in that you
want to format them from left to right in order of importance for descriptive terms.
• Descriptions will also vary based on what type of product you are listing, but you’ll still want to format them based on what users are searching for.
• While a description that has a hook and an incentive is nice, remember that that type of information is less valuable to an online shopper than more concrete search modifiers.
12
• Also remember that longer descriptions get cut off, so you’ll want to have that important product information at the beginning (to the left) of the description. Google recommends submitting 500 to 1000 characters, but gives you space to include 10,000.
• Here is a good example of a description which doesn’t follow the left to right importance rule:

New Shopping Campaign Ad Creation

• With Google Shopping Campaigns, ad breakout is a little bit Different to Product Listing Ads. • Shopping Campaigns carve ad groups out of your datafeed like cutting pieces out of a pie. • Shopping Campaigns have a base of the all products product group
(your whole feed), from which product groups for ads are cut out
17
You have the option of only using your All Products productgroup, just like you can with your All Products ad group:• From here you can choose one of 10 feed attributes through which to
create a product group underneath all products:• Category (Google Product Category)• Brand• Item ID• Condition• Product Type• Custom Label 0 - 4

More PLA best practices
27
• Actively auditing your ad groups to elevate products which perform well and limit visibility to products which garner a lot of clicks but low conversions.
• Review at least once a week, and ideally at least once a day.• Which products perform well is going to vary based on the
season, your sales and what’s popular.
28
• Recommend the All Products ad group be bid at £.01 so any more granular ad group bids you make will override that all products group.
• Include a product in multiple product groups, or give it multiple targets such as an item which is in a category, has a particular brand and is also a best seller.
• You can also look at data trends in AdWords, and modify your performance variables in the report using the dimensions tab.
