Increase products & services engagement with Filter Link Extensions

Ad extensions are a big part of enhancing the visibility and relevance of your text ads to increase performance and improve your ROI. Over the past few years, we’ve released Action Extensions, Multi-Image Extensions and Promotion Extensions, the first two of which are unique ad extensions only available on Microsoft Advertising.

We’re always looking for ways to bring our clients new and unique ad opportunities, so we’re very excited to announce a new addition to our ad extensions family, Filter Link Extensions. With this extension, advertisers can present many different features under categorized headers so that users can quickly navigate to their key products and offerings.

Filter Link Extensions help users quickly navigate to specific categories, such as Price, Deals, and Flowers.

This extension should look very familiar since it closely resembles another great extension, Structured Snippets, and thus the setup for Filter Link Extensions is like Structured Snippets, with the addition of the enhancement to add URLs.
