They continue to search for ways to help businesses attract new visitors to their site, and <strong>Similar Audiences for Search<\/strong> is a feature created to do exactly this. Businesses making use of Google AdWords will find this feature to be of great help, as it works <strong>to ensure traffic arriving at a site<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<h2>What Is Similar Audiences?<\/h2>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-7567 alignright\" src=\"http:\/\/www.awantego.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/Similar-Audiences-user-traffic-300x140.jpg\" alt=\"Similar Audiences for traffic\" width=\"300\" height=\"140\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.awantego.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/Similar-Audiences-user-traffic-300x140.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.awantego.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/Similar-Audiences-user-traffic-80x37.jpg 80w, https:\/\/www.awantego.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/Similar-Audiences-user-traffic.jpg 750w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/>First introduced in 2015, Similar Audiences<strong> allows a business to display an AdWords ad to a person who has recently visited their site<\/strong> yet takes this feature a step further. The business can now opt to<strong> show the ad to other individuals who exhibit a similar browsing behavior<\/strong>. For example, a company may choose to adjust their AdWords bid to <strong>exclude or include a certain age bracket, gender<\/strong>, or possibly both. In addition, the<strong> bids for users<\/strong> in that particular<strong> demographic can be increased or decreased.<\/strong> Now <strong>in 2017<\/strong> Similar Audiences is<strong> leaving the beta version<\/strong> and \u00a0being fully included in Google AdWords.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/\">YouTube<\/a> remains one of the most popular search engines today. Similar Audiences takes this into account and allows businesses to add viewers on this popular site to their search campaigns. Doing so allows the business to <strong>obtain hard data on the actual number of searches<\/strong> generated by a campaign. As a result, companies find they are better able to <strong>gain insight into the target audience&#8217;s behavior<\/strong>. By making full use of this feature, any business will find they can <strong>attract new site visitors, improve their conversion rate, and increase their brand visibility<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<h2>Why Google Created This Feature<\/h2>\n<p>Google has come to realize that<strong> competition is now fierce<\/strong>. In the past, consumers would turn to search engines when they wished to research a product or learn more about a company. Google could benefit from this. Now, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/\">Facebook<\/a> continues to draw new users and has capitalized on this by selling ads on their site.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-7568 alignleft\" src=\"http:\/\/www.awantego.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/Similar-audiences-vs.-social-media-300x140.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"140\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.awantego.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/Similar-audiences-vs.-social-media-300x140.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.awantego.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/Similar-audiences-vs.-social-media-80x37.jpg 80w, https:\/\/www.awantego.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/Similar-audiences-vs.-social-media.jpg 750w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/>Furthermore, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.awantego.com\/en\/how-to-properly-use-social-media-to-attract-more-customers\/\">social networks<\/a> are quickly becoming <strong>the place people turn to<\/strong> when they want information or news. To<strong> ensure Google can remain competitive with the competition<\/strong>, they have launched this feature and will continue to find new ways <a href=\"http:\/\/www.awantego.com\/en\/increase-your-reach-through-user-engagement\/\">to meet the needs of their users<\/a> and advertisers on their site. A failure to do so could lead to Google dropping from the top search engine spot and they wish to avoid this at all costs.<\/p>\n<h2>Future Prospects<\/h2>\n<p>Similar Audiences are only the beginning. Google plans to <strong>continue developing new methods<\/strong> to help their advertisers, with<strong> Customer Match<\/strong> being one such program. With this rollout, Google introduced a way for companies<strong> to match existing site visitors with new products and styles they are likely to love<\/strong>. With the help of Similar Audiences and <a href=\"https:\/\/support.google.com\/adwords\/answer\/6379332?hl=en\">Customer Match<\/a>, companies and their advertisers come together with greater efficiency. As a result, they are rewarded and their users are too.<\/p>\n<p>Another benefit of this feature is that it works to<strong> increase brand exposure for an advertiser<\/strong>. A completely new audience will be introduced to the brand, and these individuals will find the<a href=\"http:\/\/www.awantego.com\/en\/recognizing-importance-mobile-content-strategy\/\"> material on the site<\/a> to be highly relevant. Google recognizes <strong>people want information in the shortest time possible<\/strong> and continues to develop new ways to provide this <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-7570 alignright\" src=\"http:\/\/www.awantego.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/Similar-Audiences-new-methods-300x140.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"140\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.awantego.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/Similar-Audiences-new-methods-300x140.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.awantego.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/Similar-Audiences-new-methods-80x37.jpg 80w, https:\/\/www.awantego.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/Similar-Audiences-new-methods.jpg 750w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/>information in a timely manner. This new feature allows them to do so currently, and site users appreciate it.<\/p>\n<p>Marketing dollars need to be carefully allocated. Advertisement methods of the past are no longer effective, as fewer people are reading newspapers and magazines. They likewise skip over commercials when watching television. Similar Audiences provides companies with a<strong> new way of reaching members in their target audience<\/strong>, doing so based on data obtained regarding online consumer behavior. For those companies that have yet to try Similar Audiences, now is the time to do so. <strong>This feature can expand a brand&#8217;s reach<\/strong> in a short period of time and do so for very little money.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Keyword research isn&#8217;t always enough to draw new viewers to a website, and Google recognizes this.
