The ‘Reports’ sections showcases how users engage with the advertiser’s website and apps to allow improvement of product and enhance user experience.
The ‘Advertising’ section will be the base to check and analyse campaigns, be it publisher or advertiser.
The ‘Experts’ section, custom reports and Data API will provide behavioural insights, anonymised and aggregated insights from ad campaigns, reports suggested.
The tech giant has begun rolling out certain features over the weekend. These include, Google Ads, Google Marketing Platform and publisher reports and features which have been seen in the Advertising section. You will need a link of at least one Google Ads, AdSense, AdMob, Google Ad Manager or Google Marketing Platform account to get access to the Advertising section. Additionally, the Publisher ads report has moved to the ‘Advertising’ section as well.
