Launch on more ad products
Our other ad products to help you reach more shoppers include Sponsored Brands, Stores, and Sponsored Display. Based on relevance and bid, ads are shown to customers in high-visibility placements within shopping results and on product detail pages. With Sponsored Display, you also have the option to show your ads on third-party website and apps, helping you reach shoppers who viewed the detail pages of products sold by your brand, and encourage them to come back to those pages.
When shoppers click your Sponsored Products or Sponsored Display ads, they’re taken to your product detail page. Your Sponsored Brands ad will take shoppers to your Store or a custom landing page that displays your products.
