YouTube advertisers will soon have new extensions options for their ads and enhanced brand lift measurement opportunities.
Why you should care
Google continues to extend ad extensions to TrueView in-stream ads. It already offers location and form extensions for YouTube. Advertisers will be able to include actions like finding a movie time, downloading an app or booking a trip to their video ads, making their local video ad efforts more engaging.
According to YouTube, Vodafone, an early tester of the new extensions, saw a 2.3x incremental lift in ad recall and 3.5 percent lift in click through rate — a 785 percent increase over their regional benchmarks.
YouTube is also partnering with IRI to offer advertisers new Brand Lift reports and metrics.
“Soon you’ll be able to set up Brand Lift studies directly in Google Ads or Display and Video 360 and conveniently reporting alongside your other ad metrics,” writes YouTube VP of product management, Vishal Sharma.
With the new Brand Lift studies, YouTube will be sending Brand Lift surveys throughout a campaign to determine viewer perceptions in near real time. There are also two new metrics for advertisers: lifted users and cost-per-lift. (YouTube recommends advertisers use Maximize Lift bidding to optimize the newly introduced metrics.)
