Advertising

Note: Nancy uses this page for presentations on her favorite Google features. You can find more information about these features in other sections of Google Guide.

I never would have imagined that I would be listing Google advertising among my favorite features.

Google’s approach to ads is similar to its approach to search results: the ads must deliver useful links, or the ads are removed.

  • Ads must be relevant to your search.
  • Ads must not distract (no pop-up or flashy ads).
  • Sponsored links are clearly identified and kept separate from search results.
