Most advertisers focus on Google Search. But Search reaches people actively looking. Display Network reaches people passively browsing.
Both are valuable. Display is cheaper and reaches broader audiences. Yet most overlook it.
Search vs Display
Search: high intent, high CPC, lower volume. Display: low intent, low CPC, high volume. Different goals require different approaches.
