About keyword matching
options:-
Using broad match:-
When you use broad
match, your ads automatically run on relevant variations of your keywords, even
if these terms aren't in your keyword lists. This helps you attract more
visitors to your website, spend less time building keyword lists, and focus
your spending on keywords that work.
Broad match is the
default match type that all your keywords are assigned if you don't specify
another match type (exact match, phrase match, or negative match). The Google
Ads system automatically runs your ads on relevant variations of your keywords,
including synonyms, singular and plural forms, possible misspellings, stemmings
(such as floor and flooring),
related searches, and other relevant variations. To help deliver relevant
matches, this match type may also take the customer's recent search activities
into account.
Example
Broad match keyword:
|
Ads may show on searches for:
|
low-carb diet plan
|
carb-free foods
low-carb diets low calorie recipes Mediterranean diet plans low-carbohydrate dietary program |
Using phrase match:-
With phrase match,
you can show your ad to customers who are searching for your exact keyword and
close variants of your exact keyword, with additional words before or after.
Phrase match is more targeted than the default broad
match, but more flexible than exact match. It
gives you more control over how closely the keyword must match someone's search
term so your ad can appear.
How
phrase match works
With phrase match,
your ad can appear when people search for your exact phrase, even if they
include one or more words before or after it. We'll also show your ad when
someone searches for a close variant of your phrase match keyword. Close
variants include misspellings, singular and plural forms, acronyms, stemmings
(such as floor and flooring),
abbreviations, and accents. Word order is important with phrase match, meaning
that your ad won’t appear if someone enters an additional word in the middle of
your keyword.
Phrase match is more
flexible than exact match, but is more targeted than the default broad match
option. With phrase match, you can reach more customers, while still showing
your ads to customers who are most likely searching for your product or
service.
Example
Phrase
match keyword:
|
Ads may
show on searches for:
|
Ads
won't show on searches for:
|
"tennis shoes"
|
red leather tennis shoes
buy tennis shoes on sale red tenis shoes |
shoes for tennis
tennis sneakers laces |
Using exact match:-
With exact match,
you can show your ad to customers who are searching for your exact keyword, or
close variants of your exact keyword. Close variants include searches for
keywords with the same meaning as the exact keywords, regardless of spelling or
grammar similarities between the query and the keyword.
Whether someone is
searching for “running shoes” or “shoes for running,” what they want remains
the same; they’re looking for running shoes. Close variants of exact match
keywords help you connect with people who are looking for your business—despite
slight variations in the way they search—and reduces the need to build out
exhaustive keyword lists to reach these customers.
Of the four keyword
matching options, exact match gives you the most control over who sees your ad,
and can result in a higher clickthrough rate (CTR).
How
exact match works
With exact match,
your ads may appear when the meaning of someone’s search matches the meaning of
your keyword.
We'll show your ad
when someone searches for your keyword or close variants of your keyword. Close
variants may include:
- Misspellings
- Singular
or plural forms
- Stemmings
(for example, floor and flooring)
- Abbreviations
- Accents
- Reordered
words with the same meaning (for example, [shoes mens] and [mens shoes])
- Addition
or removal of function words. Function words are prepositions (like in or to), conjunctions
(like for or but), articles
(like a or the), and other
words that don’t impact the intent of a search. For example, [shoes for men] is
a close variant of [men
shoes] with the function word “for” removed.
- Implied
words (for example, if your exact match keyword is [daydream vr headset],
your ads may show on searches for “daydream headset” since “vr” is
implied)
- Synonyms
and paraphrases (for example, if your exact match keyword is [bathing
suits], ads may also show on searches for “swimming suits”)
- Same
search intent (for example, if your exact match keyword is [images royalty
free], ads may also show on searches for “free copyright images”)
