Ash Shenker General Manager in Corporate at Australian Fitness Academy (Education Management, 11-50 employees) Chose Google Ads Google Ads remains at the top advertising channel within our business for both lead volume and revenue generation, whilst maintaining a reasonable cost per lead (CPL).

Tyler Newman Marketing Director in Marketing at MGT Films (Construction, 11-50 employees) Chose Google Ads Google is a lot better at not just banning you for no reason.

Ishant Harjai Business Development Manager in Marketing at FAB Web Studio (Information Technology & Services, 51-200 employees) Chose Google Ads Well, I use Facebook/Meta pixels sometimes. But it is not as good as Google Ads. There are a lot of people searching on Google for good web development firms but how many are there finding the same sort of person on Facebook or Linkedin? Thus, I like the abundance of users … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose Google Ads It's gives me better results than the other platforms, cause by setting up keywords that are relevant to my business I can really target people who are actively searching for the topic.

Verified User Chose Google Ads Google Ads is more robust and has more features as compared to Microsoft Advertising, aka Bing Ads. Google has better and more reach than other search engines in the market. Google stands well against all its competitors when it comes to media planning and buying. Go for it any … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose Google Ads Google Ads can be more useful than LinkedIn & Facebook Ads because it is reaching a larger pool of users. Both platforms have even better/more targeting options, but they limit the amount of reach you will receive. Google Ads catches users at the top of the sales funnel. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose Google Ads Google ads provide no customer service. Incentivized Helpful? Michael Shooster CEO (Chief Executive Officer) in Corporate at Answering Service Care (Information Technology & Services, 51-200 employees) Chose Google Ads We had to stop using Bing as the results were all over the place and so we couldn't trust the service. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose Google Ads Google Ads clearly has high potential as more users search for their product when compared to other channels hence getting the desired audience. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose Google Ads Neither platform seems to perform in my opinion. Google Ads is much more complicated while Facebook Ads are simpler to implement and run.

The benefit of using Google Ads is that people are always searching on Google and it's quick to pull your name first in a search ranking, where a majority of people are likely to click on compared to … Incentivized Helpful? Thomas Holland Manager of Digital Paid Marketing in Marketing at BAYADA Home Health Care (Hospital & Health Care, 10,001+ employees) Chose Google Ads In most cases, it's better between features, usability, performance (though Bing can sometimes cost less). Google is also smarter about its keywords. Bing is more similar to how Google was five or more years ago (needing to add variations to those keywords). I will say, though, … Incentivized Helpful? Aditya Rai Senior PPC Analyst in Marketing at Coalition Technologies (Marketing & Advertising, 51-200 employees) Chose Google Ads Google Ads is pretty strong when it comes to search and shopping campaigns.

Verified User Chose Google Ads Other platforms like Facebook Business Manager or Twitter Ads do not allow the same level of optimization and control of targeting as Google Ads. In same cases it may have less reach, but being more precise is better to see a ROAS sooner. Incentivized Helpful? Kara Hooper Web Designer, Developer, Digital Marketer, Graphic Designer, SEO Consultant in Marketing at KLH Technology Solutions (Information Technology & Services, 1-10 employees) Chose Google Ads Google is the largest search engine with the most users so this is the first choice.

William Copeland CFO (Chief Financial Officer) / CEO in Corporate at Bio-One, Sweet Cakes Bakery, Effin Cool Stuff (Consumer Services, 1-10 employees) Chose Google Ads I have used all forms of online ad platforms. In my experience, Google is by far the most expensive on a per-click and per-impression basis. None of these major players have much or any concern for small businesses. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose Google Ads Everyone uses Google. They have and will always be the leader when it comes to search engines.
