Getting started with Smart campaigns takes just a few minutes. After the initial setup, Google Ads manages your campaign automatically.
When customers search for businesses like yours on Google, your ad shows in search results. On Google Maps, your ad shows directly on the map or beneath the search results. You have the option of including your business address and phone number in your ad as well. You'll only pay when someone clicks your ad, and you can edit your ad or cancel your advertising at any time.
