What is Google Shopping?
Just like any other Google Ad, Google Shopping ads appear in search engine results pages (SERPs). However, unlike advertisements of the past, Google Shopping ads provide information such as price, product name, and availability alongside an image of the item in question. These products can then be purchased directly from the search results of Google!
Research into this particular branch of PPC advertising has shown that Google Shopping ads are producing a lower cost per click (CPC) and much higher returns on ad spend (ROAS) when compared to other PPC advertising methods. With the help of our Google Shopping team, your Google Shopping campaign will result in:
– Quick visibility of key products
– A coherent product feed no matter the platform – Shopify, Magento, Woocommerce, or an even more niche – CMS like Squarespace, Open Cart, Shop Wired, and more!
– Higher converting traffic
– A compelling online presence
– Wider audience reach
By submitting a well-optimized shopping feed, businesses can ensure accurate and up-to-date product information is displayed in shopping ads, making it easier for users to discover and purchase their products online.

What are the benefits of Google Shopping for your business?
Increased reach & visibility
Showcase your products to a target audience prominently in Googles Search Results. Includes product images, pricing & a small description to stand out from the usual Organic & Paid listings.
High quality traffic
Highly targeted ads based on product information, user search queries, and user behaviour, ensuring that ads are shown to relevant audiences actively searching for specific products.
Cost effective
Google Shopping operates on a cost-per-click (CPC) model, meaning you only pay when a user clicks on the ad, plus as it is one of Googles newest (and under used) platforms we see CPC’s as low as £0.15.

Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between Google Shopping ads and traditional text ads?
Google Shopping ads and traditional text ads serve the same purpose – to advertise products or services – but they differ significantly in their format and presentation.
Traditional text ads are composed of a headline, URL, and descriptive text. They rely heavily on keyword targeting and well-crafted ad copy to attract clicks and are used primarily in Google Search campaigns.
Google Shopping ads, on the other hand, offer a more visual advertising experience and are driven by your Google Merchant Center product feed, not by keywords. They display product images, titles, prices, and store information directly in the search results. Google uses the product information you provide to determine where and when your shopping ads will appear.
While both ad formats can be effective, Google Shopping ads can be more engaging due to their visual nature and can provide users with essential information upfront, such as price and product image, making them particularly effective for e-commerce businesses.
Why work with a Google Shopping agency?
When it comes to Google Shopping, it’s vital you work with an agency that knows its stuff, allowing your campaign to reach new heights of success.
Google Shopping is a fast-paced channel, but by working with Paramount Digital, our team will not only ensure that your account is up to date with best practices but also help you to optimize your campaigns. This will enable growth, drive traffic to your website, and boost your brand’s visibility.
Contact us today to learn more.
What’s the best format to have my products in?
Depending on your platform, Google Shopping feeds can be formatted in several different ways. XML feeds are typically the recommended format, as a direct link can be made between your site and Google Merchant Centre, ensuring that price changes, new products, and removed products are updated upon each automated fetch.
Other accepted formats are CSV product files, as well as API links, direct from platforms such as Shopify. Our expert Google Shopping team knows the ins and outs of product feeds and is happy to assist in the setup and maintenance of feeds as part of our ongoing tasks.
Contact the team today for more information and a free assessment.
Can I use the same product feed for Google Shopping as Facebook Ads?
In short, yes!
Running one feed to multiple platforms is entirely possible. However, our team would recommend separate feeds for each platform to allow for bespoke feed optimisation per platform.
If you are looking for any help with feed optimisation for either Google Shopping or Facebook, reach out to our team on 01744 747 474.
How can I optimise my product listings to improve visibility and performance on Google Shopping?
To optimise your product listings on Google Shopping, it’s vital to provide accurate and detailed product information. Use compelling product titles that include relevant keywords, making them easily searchable, and high-quality product images that can significantly improve click-through rates.
Detailed, keyword-rich descriptions help potential customers understand your product better and enhance search visibility. Ensure product category and product type fields are accurately filled out, as Google uses these to determine when your product will appear in search results.
Your product price should be competitive and updated regularly. Similarly, include any special promotions or discounts to attract more clicks. Lastly, provide accurate shipping information to avoid any customer dissatisfaction.
It’s vital that you (or your Google Shopping agency) continually monitor and adjust your listings based on performance data to improve visibility and performance on Google Shopping.
What are some best practices for maximising conversions and ROI on Google Shopping?
To maximise conversions and ROI on Google Shopping, it’s important you focus on the onsite user journey.
Ways to improve this include:
Streamlining the checkout process
Optimising site speed
Enhancing product search and navigation
Implementing responsive design
Providing detailed product information and visuals
These key strategies enhance the overall checkout experience, reduce the likelihood of bounce rates, and ensure the customer is able to make an informed purchase decision.
While this maximises conversions for you as a business, a better user journey also leads to increased trust and customer satisfaction, encouraging customers to return.
