To provide a comprehensive and consolidated view of your Audiences and make audience management and optimization simpler, you’ll find the following improvements in Google Ads:
- New audience reporting
Detailed reporting about audience demographics, segments, and exclusions is now consolidated in one place. Click the Campaigns iconand open the “Audiences, keywords and content” tab and click Audiences. You can also easily manage your Audiences from this report page. Learn more About Audience reporting.
- New terms
We’re using new terms on your audience report and throughout Google Ads. For example, “audience types” (these include custom, in-market, and affinity) are now referred to as audience segments and “remarketing” is now referred to as “your data”. Learn more about the Updates to Audience terms and phrases.
Next add the Google tag and event snippet to your website. The Google tag needs to be in every page on your site and the event snippet only needs to be in pages where the events occur. Together, these snippets add your website visitors to your data segments, using custom parameters to associate visitors with the IDs of the products or services they viewed.
If you've set up the Google tag to track your website visitors, you'll see that it consists of the Google tag and an event snippet. Learn how to set up conversion tracking for your website
