Ad position is also influenced by the expected impact from ad extensions and other ad formats, such as sitelinks. This means that if two competing ads have the same bid and quality, the ad with the better expected impact from extensions will generally appear in a higher position than the other.

With AdWords, you’ll organize your account into separate campaigns, with each campaign focusing on a single business goal, such as driving traffic to your website, or offering, like a particular product or service. If your business serves several geographic areas, you might want to create a separate campaign for each location. One effective approach is to organize your campaigns to reflect the structure of your website. This allows you to create campaigns around specific themes or products.

Most businesses sell various products and or services. In order to easily view, edit, and report on the performance of different products and services, we recommend creating separate campaigns for each high-level product area or service you are advertising.

Rich media ads allow you to more actively engage a web user than standard text or display formats.

You can easily create these types of ads using the AdWords Ad gallery, or you can use existing rich media assets served through a third party ad server.
