How to Use Broad Match & DS

According to Google Adwords, the Adwords system when using broad match, runs ads automatically with relevant variations of the keywords including terms that are not in the keyword list. Variations include phrases with the keyword, plural or singular forms of the keywords and synonyms. Keywords that relate to services or goods you are advertising are created for a certain ad group used in targeting potential customers. An example is if a corporation offers loans for buying houses, the company may submit a keyword like “home mortgage” in the ad group. The Doubleclick Search also known as DS feature is used in creating keywords with greater reach. DS is implemented by placing the plus symbol before a single or more words in a broad match.
