Write clear, factual and objective ads that accurately describe what is offered on your site. When writing titles and descriptions, keep in mind the following:
- Clearly explain how your offer specifically relates to the keywords you have chosen. To improve your click-through rates, include the keyword in your title and description where possible.
- Accurately describe what the user will find at your site.
- Use correct spelling, punctuation and grammar.
- Use correct capitalization: title case for titles and sentence case for descriptions.
- Always write a short description. Ads written more concisely give users a better experience and generally get better results. Your ads may attract more interested prospective customers.
- If a brand is present in the keyword, include it in the title or description and indicate you sell or provide substantial information about the trademark-owner’s products or services.
