Ad extensions (now often called “assets” in Google Ads) add extra information to your ads - sitelinks, callouts, structured snippets, phone numbers, prices, and more. They can increase visibility and click-through rate by making your result larger and more relevant.
Extensions don’t replace strong keywords and ads - they amplify them. When the core message matches intent, assets help you win more qualified clicks at a similar cost.
