has added several similar features and other efficient enhancements
that will ease the transition to UET.

AdWords - Audience Insights Report
• A new Adwords Audience Insights report, that should now be in all
advertisers accounts, outlines details like demographics, interests,
locations and device usage for people included on an advertiser’s
remarketing lists.
• The new tool will allow advertisers to look at people who have bought
from them, and better understand their audiences.
• An example from Google states: “If most people who converted on your
site are jazz enthusiasts, you may wish to add this affinity audience to
your campaign. Or, if many of your customers are females between the
ages of 25 and 34, you might want to customize your ad creative to
appeal to this demographic.”

AdWords – Display Network
• In the past, 56% of display ads never had a chance to be viewed
because they were below the fold, scrolled out of view, or in a
background tab.
• With this recent update, the GDN will be one of the only media
platforms where advertisers don’t pay for an ad impression unless it
was viewable.
• Your budgets will now only be spent where they can have an impact.
In the coming months, all campaigns that buy on a CPM basis will
be upgraded to be viewable CPM (vCPM).
