You may remember that earlier this fall we announced the launch of Place Pages for Google Maps, which are web pages for every place in the world. Interested users can find relevant information, photos, directions, and reviews for their favorite places. Users will also see contextually targeted ads, and with the inclusion of Place Pages in Placement Performance reports , you’ll now have insight into whether your clients’ ads appeared on a Place Page and how they performed. With this update, you can more closely monitor and optimize your clients’ campaigns. While placement targeting is not available for Google Maps, you can increase the likelihood of appearing on Place Pages by increasing bids on high-performing keywords or by creating ad groups with highly specific keywords to target Place Pages relevant to your clients’ products or businesses.

Coming to ad:tech New York ? So are we! We’re organizing a number of sessions at ad:tech and its partner conference, Content Revenue Strategies (CRS) , to help agencies get more out of their search and display spend with Google. Here’s the lowdown: The Google Ads Factory Tour, 11/4/09-11/5/09 The Factory Tour consists of two days of live workshops at ad:tech NY designed to provide you with a comprehensive overview of Google’s latest measurement and optimization tools. You’ll hear directly from the Google ads team, and walk away with practical tips you can immediately use to improve search and display performance. The first day will focus on optimizing search and display campaigns. We’ll spend the morning highlighting recently released AdWords search optimization tools such as the Opportunities tab and Bid Simulator, and in the afternoon we’ll take you through effective optimization techniques for text and display campaigns on the Google Content Network. The second day we’ll expand our scope to cover measurement tools such as Google Analytics and Website Optimizer, search ads quality, and advertising strategies for local and mobile campaigns. The Factory Tour is open to all exhibit hall and conference passholders. Content Revenue Strategies, 11/5/09 Formerly known as ADSPACE, CRS is the first and only expo dedicated to AdSense and contextual advertising. CRS will take place alongside ad:tech New York and offers sessions tailored to advertisers as well as small and medium sized publishers. Here you can attend sessions designed to help your clients maximize their performance on the Google Content Network and on emerging blog, video and social media networks. Additionally, a team of AdWords and AdSense optimizers will be present at the conference to meet you and answer your questions. You can stop by our Optimization Lounge to receive customized performance tips for your clients’ campaigns, as well as share your product feedback and suggestions. Both CRS and the Google Ads Factory Tour will be held in the Javits Center along with the rest of ad:tech NY. We recommend you register ahead of time to save on admission fees.
