How Google Ads in the Google Maps app works
When customers search for businesses or explore a local area within Google Maps, Google matches these actions to your business' location. Anyone on their mobile device who is located nearby or shows interest in your location may view your ad.
- Google Ads are designed to help businesses provide their potential customers the information that they need to decide when and how to visit their shops.
- You provide us with shop locations, campaign budget and ad assets. Using these inputs, Google AI optimises bids, ad placements and asset combinations.
- Google will recommend a daily budget based on the information provided about your business. You can make your own selection and change your budget at any time.
