Google Shopping

What is Google Shopping?

Google Shopping is one of the largest comparison engines in the world. Google Shopping campaigns are one of the types of Google Ads ads. They are typical mainly by referring to a specific product, containing a product image, its price, and a short description. They are often a significant source of conversions.

Where can you advertise with Google Shopping?

Through Google Shopping, you can offer your goods in many countries. Google Shopping campaigns are currently available for example in Australia, Austria, Belgium, Brazil, Canada, the Czech Republic, Denmark, France, Germany, Hungary, India, Ireland, Italy, Japan, Mexico, the Netherlands, Norway, New Zealand, Poland, Russia, Singapore, South Africa, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Turkey, the USA, or the United Kingdom. Beta testing is underway in many other countries.
