Ad extensions provide additional information in Google ads to help users. There are several types of extensions including location, phone number, sitelinks to on-site pages, and product images. These extensions make ads more relevant and useful to users, improving click-through rates. Each extension can be individually tracked to measure performance. Broad match modifiers allow more control over broad match keywords by requiring specific words to match searches.

6. Benefits of Ad Extensions Your ads become more relevant and useful for the user, increasing the likelihood they will click on it (improved CTR). Each extension is individually track-able so you can see how well its performing. You can use extensions to funnel visitors to different landing pages within the site (more visibility). It’s like you get multiple keyword branding and calls-to-action with a single ad/keyword.
7. Location Extensions Location extensions combine location specific information such as address, city and state with the Adwords text ad. The location extension is displayed when a searcher uses a location specific search term within the target location. If you have multiple locations of the same business, the display will expand to show the phone number and address of each additional location.
9. Phone Extensions Phone extensions make it easy for customers to call you directly from your ad and for you to better understand the value of your campaigns by measuring the phone calls that your ads generate. These extensions display a number that a searcher can click and immediately call. Another New Feature in Phone Extensions includes Call Metrics.
11. Sitelinks Extensions Ad Sitelinks allow you to extend the value of your existing AdWords ads by providing additional links to specific, relevant content deeper within your sitemap. Ad Sitelinks will display up to four additional Destination URLs for users to choose from. On average, advertisers who use Ad Sitelinks have seen their ad click through rates improve by 30%.
13. Product Extensions Product extensions use a similar format, but allow advertisers to display relevant product images alongside Adwords text ads. These are perfect for ecommerce advertisers as they provide searchers with an image of the specific product they searched for. Product extensions require a Google Merchant Center account (formally Google Base) to make the connection.
18. Introduction What is Broad Match Modifier? The broad match modifier is an AdWords targeting feature that lets you create keywords which have greater reach than phrase match, and more control than broad match. You implement the modifier by putting a plus symbol (+) directly in front of one or more words in a broad match keyword. Each word preceded by a + must appear in the user's search exactly or as a close variant.
