Display ads: awareness, retargeting, and reach

Display ads are visual ads shown across websites, apps, and platforms (banners, responsive display, native placements). Display typically performs best for awareness and remarketing, while search tends to perform better for high-intent demand capture.

Good use cases

  • Remarketing to re-engage visitors who didn’t convert
  • Building awareness in new markets or for new offers
  • Supporting launches with reach and frequency

Common pitfalls

  • Optimising for cheap clicks instead of qualified outcomes
  • Poor placement exclusions (wasted spend on low-quality sites/apps)
  • Weak creative and unclear offers
