Wow! Sam, I am now is busy with my first print on demand business with Google ads.

[@strange-universe]

I cannot fathom not having negatives. We currently have over 2.5k in the Shopping campaign alone. In fact, that and no search data is why we refuse to use smart shopping. Lots of good stuff in this video. Can't rely on Google account managers for this sort of detail, thanks!

[@gatz900]

very useful tips, thank you!

[@alisonlee970]

Great video. Quick tip on adding negative keywords that saves a step: no need to copy the search query and then navigate to the negative keyword tab. Just select the search query you want to block and click to add to negatives without ever leaving the search query page (choose ad group level, campaign level, or add to negative keyword list). Be sure to add brackets for exact match negative keywords or quotation marks for phrase match. This way also allows you to quickly scan the search query report and select multiple terms you want to block. I believe you can add up to 50 negative keywords at a time. :)

Great tip!! Thanks Alison

So much value in just one video. Absolutely awesome.

Amazing! Thanks a lot. This is so helpful!

[@DamianceteVideos]

Fantastic video! I know that is almost impossible to cover everything in a single video, and you cover a lot of topics! But something very very important, are the most advanced steps of the funnels, the cart and checkout pages! I´m reformulating my checkout page, and I putting some reviews also there! In that steps inspire confidence is key. Traffic -> Landing Page -> Checkout.

Thank you, the video was precious. I'm glad I found your channel and you as a mentor 🙂

[@josephontiveros6680]

Iv'e come back to this video over 5 times now. haha You mentioned a video on maintaining and improving the product feed. The product feed and optimization is one of the most time consuming steps. A video specifically on Optimizing product feeds ie. clever title practices, too many capital letters, great additional fields to add, etc. I think this would go a long way in reassuring people that they have an optimized product feed and their "ducks are in a row" when it comes to efficient bidding. As eager as I was, I would not allow myself to spend on bids without knowing I've tried my best to first optimize my titles and feed. BTW I did watch the "Title Optimization" video linked in the description.

[@alexapavan5920]

Hi Sam! Thanks so much for all the incredible content! Do you have any tips for a new product (from a new business)?

[@KeyCommerce]

Find all the similar products being sold on Google Shopping already and look to see the filter options shown on the left side (if you're on desktop). Make sure to include the relevant info of your new product into your feed, keeping these filter options in mind.

[@brettsidaway2691]

Hi Sam. Brilliant video. 3 quick questions: 1) how do I link my feed to the best product photo? 2) when you set up the campaign on the video you unclicked all the Network options - is that correct? 3) Most of my websites are on the Shopify platform. They recommend pulling the SEO title & description into the feed, rather than the product title & description - is that the best option to optimise the feed. I tend to write the meta description as more aspirational copy rather than descriptive & they also often repeat the keyword for SEO purposes so I am not entirely sure this is the best info for the feed but interested in your take. Brett

[@strange-universe]

Use a title that makes sense and is easy to read, while also hitting the main keyword/s as early as possible. That is interesting that there are 2 forms of title there. We often rewrite titles for the shopping campaign as the viewer sees a very limited amount of characters. Plus, if you have very similar products, use some creative variations to assist in covering more searches.

[@robertwilliam4368]

Hi Sam, I was wondering if you use any specific third-party tools for your shopping campaigns? Hope to hear from you.

[@DerrestWilliams]

16:40 - Negative keywords. Negative broad match This type is the default for your negative keywords. For negative broad match keywords, your ad won't show if the search contains all your negative keyword terms, even if the terms are in a different order. Your ad may still show if the search contains only some of your keyword terms. - Broad match will typically suffice.

Hey Sam, How can we lower our Average CPC in shopping ads?

[@BigBoss-gb4cx]

So what's better? Use the template to break even or use Target ROAS? Also how so I compare the "old" enhanced CPC vs the new Target ROAS? If I make a duplicate the data is lost.

[@strange-universe]

I wonder, can you set up an experiment? say 50/50 with the experiment using Target ROAS?

[@jessenewyork1555]

Great video and very helpful, I’ll definitely by taking some advice from this

Thanks Jesse, happy to help!

[@hubertcheungchn]

Thank you for sharing these useful tips! One quick question. I am running shopping ads for $20 per day. Not a single conversion so far so it wouldn’t be possible for me to scale the ads. Should I increase the budget?

[@Duintje28]

Hey Sam, great content you are pushing out there!! ✌️ If more people are selling the same product, who’s product description is being displayed? And does the info in the description help on ranking for more keywords? Thanks again Sam!

[@BigBoss-gb4cx]

On the negative keywords example you used a Search campaign... Which is wrong, Shopping Campaign battery has any data for conversions on Search Terms.

I have a serious issue mate, appreciate if you can shed some light on this, I want to run wines on shopping, but its getting rejected straight away, but it is eligible to run with restrictions in Australia, how do I get it working?

[@dhirajdutta7881]

Valuable content Sam. I have a question. What time period do you recommend for optimising stuff like negative keywords & unprofitable products? Is it like a month?

[@KeyCommerce]

It depends on how much traffic you’re getting. I recommend checking every week (at least) and usually every day or every few days.

[@dhirajdutta7881]

@@KeyCommerce I get around 2k visitors a week since the cpc is really low in my country. Would you recommend optimising it every week?

[@BigBoss-gb4cx]

Hi ! I have a question regarding Google negative keywords. So if I want to add multiple Shopping add (low priority with high cpc, and high priory with low cpc). But I want to add negative brand keywords to a shopping add how does it work? For example I add the to my Low CPC, high priory ad the negative keyword "Nike" : He search for "shoes" only. A) Will it work only for the specific search Like if he search for " shoes" my Nike shoes add will get filtered out from my Low CPC and high priority add and Google will choose my second ad? OR B) since he didn't searched for "Nike shoes" only "shoes", my high priority, low cpc add with the negative keyword Nike WILL show up since he did search for shoes not "Nike" or "Nike shoes" So which is it? Thanks.

[@ramrks853]

Hey man, I have processed my product feed into my merchant account but somehow my feeds are getting partially active.

[@tsd6916]

Hi Sam, maybe you can answer this question, I am sure others are confused by it as well as me. If you have shopify and you are using content API with merchant center as I am, what part does the "manage availability" bulk editor in shopify google app play in all this? Can you use this? Is there any point? Does it cause any issues given that you will be manually editing the feed here, rather than in the product which is obviously what content API pulls from. Your thoughts would be appreciated, thank you.

[@strange-universe]

It only goes one direction, right? Any changes to the spreadsheet you upload should only go forward to the shopping campaign, and not be collected in your store. If that's not what you meant, my apologies.

[@nickjohnas70]

Great video! DO you have a complete course about Google Shopping ads on Udemy ? (specific for Google Shopping)

[@cavallopazzo340]

Thanks Sam. That was very useful. I have a question: When your Shoppings ads have been running for a while and you see some search terms that have been performing very well I guess you should put them into your description in the feed, right? And if they were already there, probably put them further up in the feed, right? Does the feed need to sound natural and use marketing psychology for the people who read it in your experience or can it just be keyword stuffed?

[@strange-universe]

yep, work them into titles if not there in a readable sensible manner :) Also, it's a great place to grab some keywords for your search campaigns.

[@ninetwofive9621]

Hi Sam, Thanks for the great content! For multiple product variants in terms of different sizes. Would you recommend syncing each product variant as a single product to the feed? Or would you recommend to only sync for example the cheapest variant? Thank you in advance!

[@strange-universe]

we like to put up each product that has highest interaction. Often, let's say it's a color variation, having the red and blue (your best sellers) listed is enough to get people to click and shop to see if you have white (your least sold) Our findings have been that Google seems to grab onto a few products and pound those out there. So, show 'em your top selling stuff, especially if you have 1000s of items. We had items that sized in diameter, 3", 4", 5", etc. Mostly, we went with the less expensive 3" versions. Well, search terms and product sales showed that 4" and 5" had way more orders. Our experience is that when we get the more "popular" product out there, we all win. Buyers want to get to what they want asap. The other course of action is listing a master in some instances. Your master listing image could possibly convey that there are variations, such as color swatches included. I probably don't know what I'm talking about, so take it with a grain of salt, as they say.

Hello. What is a Smart campaign?

[@KeyCommerce]

Hey Moira, it’s a type of Shopping campaign where Google runs almost all your settings and optimizations for you. Sometimes they can perform well, for many Ecom stores it’s better to retain the control (by using a regular shopping campaign) to save money and get better results.

[@dimsumdolly8857]

I think Google prohibits background images. Product has to be on white or invisible background.

[@KeyCommerce]

You are right. They prefer the white background but I’ll usually try other backgrounds because they can often lead to higher click through rates. I have never seen an account in trouble for this. Google will sometimes give warnings and you can then just fix it without an issue.

[@EliteURBX]

I would love to see the number of clicks you have on your products in your products feed.

[@benjaminhawkin5564]

[@aysbergfreising]

Did I see keywords set as "broad modified" in you negative keywords? That does not exist for negatives. You might be lucky they do "something" but it's not best practice.
