Keyword themes are words or phrases that help match your ads with Google searches. Selecting the right keyword themes helps you reach people when they’re looking for the products and services you offer. This article explains how keyword themes work and provides tips for choosing the right keyword themes for your Smart campaigns.
How it works
A single keyword theme represents multiple similar words and phrases. For instance, the keyword theme “bakery” makes your ad eligible to show when people search for “bakery near me,” “local bakery,” and “cake shop.”
After your ad is active, you can review your campaign’s search terms and turn off any that aren’t relevant for your business. You’re in control of when your ads show.
Note: If you’re familiar with keywords in other types of Google Ads campaigns, keyword themes are similar to keywords. However, in Smart campaigns, a single keyword theme can represent multiple keywords. Save time by not entering an exhaustive list of keywords, and still get high-performing ads that show on appropriate Google searches.
Add high-value keyword themes to your Smart campaigns
Here are a few best practices for adding keyword themes to your campaign:
Aim for a maximum of 7-10 keyword themes
Think like your customers
Remember your advertising strategy
Create separate campaigns for different groups of keyword themes
