Google is one of the pioneers of modern digital advertising, and the enabler of a thriving and open internet advertising ecosystem that supports users, publishers, and advertisers. Modern digital advertising is a scaled business that relies on a mutually-reinforcing cycle of ad-sales, ad-planning, ad-implementation/optimization and ad-measurement. Ad-measurement is key to this cycle, and consequently is critical to the business. Among other things, good measurement helps advertisers and platforms to conceptualize, create and plan successful campaigns; to serve the right ads to the right users; to help allocate resources to the right channels and to allocate bids in auctions and budgets across campaigns appropriately; and to audit the efficacy of ads in delivering on various campaign goals. Good measurement is also key for ensuring users are exposed to ads they find useful; and for ensuring publishers, content creators, and other ad-tech firms can monetize their content appropriately; both of which are key to sustaining an open and vibrant internet.
Google’s advertising measurement team focuses on combining data at scale with formal science to make this possible. Our science helps make advertising useful and delightful to our users, and valuable and results-driven for our advertisers and publishers.
