Looking for greater visibility and more impressions to help drive sales? Today, the team is excited to announce an expansion of Promoted Listings Advanced.
More opportunity means more ways to scale visibility of your listings. Advanced campaigns now have the opportunity to show in the top 4 slots of search. It is the optimal solution for reaching buyers in the most trafficked placements on eBay, while also providing keyword targeting and budget control.
Factors like quality, keyword relevance, your bid amount, other seller’s bids, and a reserve price (the minimum amount we’ve determined a click is worth, taking item quality, competition, seasonality, and marketplace thresholds into consideration) will determine whether your ad will win the auction and appear in the top slots of a buyer’s search results.
Take advantage of more opportunities for ads to appear in the top slots of search and drive sales like these eBay sellers:
While Advanced campaigns will get preferred access to the top slots of search, Promoted Listings Standard will continue to be eligible to appear in these first 4 slots and over 100 placements across the eBay network, including product pages and search results on both mobile and desktop. A number of factors will determine placement as noted above. We recommend sellers follow our listing best practices to improve item quality and relevance, boosting eligibility.
Just one of the many enhancements recently made. We’ve been busy creating and launching new features for Promoted Listings Advanced over the last few months including:
- Updated reporting features: We’ve simplified the search query report. You can now view all keywords and buyer queries that your Advanced campaign listings appeared for in one place.
- Negative Phrase Match: Negative Phrase Match is now available. The new match type lets you choose specific keyword phrases for search terms that you don’t want your listing to appear for, and may include other words before and/or after but not between.
