How To Create A Remarketing Tag For Search Campaign

What is Remarketing?

In the digital world remarketing is essentially used to reach your existing audience to increase your conversion rate. For example, if you have a new offer for your smartphone product category and you would like to send this offer to people who visited your smartphone category page in the past, then you will use this feature to reach your audience. In paid media let’s say you are running a Google Display campaign for brand awareness of your upcoming product launch. Once the product is available you would like to inform your audience that the product is available now who visited your website or who showed interest in your product by viewing or clicking on your Google Display banners. In this scenario as well we will create a remarketing audience tag and implement it on the website so on the product launch day we can reach that pool of audience through different channels like Google Search, Gmail, YouTube, etc.

Let’s create our first remarketing tag in this article then I will write another blog to explain how to implement it on a website.
