An impression is counted each time your ad is shown on Google Search, Google Maps, Gmail, YouTube or on a Google partner website. Learn more about writing an effective ad for Smart campaigns
Impressions indicate how often your ad is being shown to potential customers. Impressions are good for building brand awareness, or helping people recognise and get familiar with your business.
- The more impressions that you get, the more likely you’ll get clicks and calls from potential customers through your ad.
- You aren’t charged for impressions.

Along with the number of impressions that your campaign is getting, you'll also find insights on how your ads are reaching people. You might see the locations of where your ads are shown, the age ranges of people who are shown your ads or how many times your ads are shown on mobile devices.
