AW - How AW Works, Keywords Flashcards
You can use keyword match types with campaigns that show ads on the
Search Network or both the Search and Display Networks combined. On the Display Network, keywords are treated as broad match.
Google will automatically show your ads for close variations of your keywords to maximize your potential to show your ads on relevant searches. Close variations include
misspellings, singular and plural forms, acronyms, stemmings (such as floor and flooring), abbreviations, and accents.
If you don’t want your ads to show on close variations you can
narrow your exact match and phrase match targeting.
To narrow your exact match and phrase match targeting, you’ll need to choose one of the following campaign types when you create your campaign or already be using one of these campaign types:
“Search Network only - All features”
“Search & Display Networks - All features”
“Search Network with Display Select - All features”
