Local Digital Marketing Service Company

Google announced they will begin charging for searchers clicking on the directions of the location extensions found on some Ad Words ads. Location extensions add an address and phone number to your Google Ad Words ads. In the past, clicking on a phone number via your Internet Marketing Services or clicking on an address to bring up directions to the advertiser cost that advertiser nothing. Yes, clicking on the phone number was one thing Google eventually started charging for but not for driving directions. That is changing Local Digital Marketing Service Company.

Google said they will “begin to charge for clicks on directions in the same manner as clicks on your ad’s headline or phone number.” Google then warned advertisers that if they are using local Internet Marketing Consultants and you do not want to be charged for clicks on driving directions, remove the location extensions. They also warned, “if your campaign has a high number of these clicks, this indicates that your customers are interacting with your ads to get directions to your business.”

Here is some Q&A on these changes from Google:
