How has Google's search experience changed with AI?

Google's AI Overviews are reshaping the search results page, often displaying AI-assembled answers at the top with fewer traditional organic listings and standard ads. This means consumers are seeing fewer clickable options and more instant answers.

What are AI-driven formats in PPC?

AI-driven formats like Performance Max (PMAX), AI Max, or Demand Gen don't solely react to search queries. They pull signals from across Google's entire ecosystem to predict user intent and assemble ads on the fly, requiring broad search themes, audience signals, and creative assets.

How can retailers and DMOs succeed in the AI era of PPC?

Success depends on adapting PPC strategies to the new AI-driven environment by incorporating AI-driven formats and supplying the right signals and creative assets. Balancing SEO and AI-driven PPC into a unified strategy is key to capturing visibility, conversions, and growth.
