Shopping ads come to YouTube’s home feed and search results

There’s a new kind of ad coming to YouTube . Google  announced today the launch of Shopping ads on YouTube, which lets brands advertise their products and services right in the YouTube home feed and search results. For example, if a user searches for “Puma shoes review,” a Shopping ad may offer a row of suggested products at the top of the page before the video results. The ads may also appear as a carousel between the videos on the homepage. Puma is a debut advertiser for the new Shopping ad product, but the video site will soon fill with these sorts of product suggestions. “Consumers are continuing to watch more content on the YouTube platform and we want to be where they are, to reach and engage them,” said Rick Almeida, vice president of e-commerce at Puma Group, in a statement about its new YouTube ads. “This new opportunity will enable Puma to extend our shopping strategy into a new property and inspire consumers,” he added.
