Google Ads Monitoring - Ad Format Analysis

We now have the ability to analyze the Google ads format type by client or by Product category. Google Ads Monitoring can help you see the number of impressions served by a specific advertiser, by format type, and those are videos, images, and text adverts. Text advertisements appear after search results. Text ads make up 10% of the total impressions served. This means that a number of people has seen a specific text advert after they have searched for a specific term. The main platforms for video advertisements are websites and YouTube. With the usage of these data, users might do more in-depth analyses on the types of ads that their rivals run, or the most popular types of ads inside particular product categories. Analysing the distribution of ad formats—such as text, image, and video ads—can help marketers understand the main strategires used by competitors to reach their target consumers. These figures provide patterns that can be applied to content strategy development, budget optimisation, and competitive analysis with regard to Google advertisements in Cyprus for October 2023.

Additional Uses


  • Evaluating Format Saturation and Impact: If a particular format (e.g., text ads) has a relatively low number of impressions compared to image or video ads, it could indicate saturation or a lower impact in that market. Brands can then experiment with less common formats to stand out.


  • Seasonal Ad Format Trends: Comparing format usage over time (e.g., between months or years) allows brands to spot seasonal trends. If video ads spike during certain months, it might suggest a period when consumers are more engaged with visual content, guiding brands to adjust their content strategy seasonally.


  • Content Creation Strategy: Knowing which formats are used more often can inform a company’s content creation. If image ads are highly utilized, it may be worthwhile to invest in high-quality creatives or explore richer media formats, like animated banners, to differentiate from competitors. Similarly, if video ads show high usage, brands can invest in producing impactful short videos.
