Promoted videos now in AdWords

Earlier this year we posted on how to advertise your business on YouTube through Promoted Videos, and now you can advertise with Promoted Videos directly through AdWords.

If you have a video about your business, Promoted Videos allow you to drive viewership of your videos by targeting the hundreds of millions of searches that happen on YouTube every day. You can also use Promoted Videos to have your videos appear on the YouTube homepage, video watch pages, and across the AdSense network.

To get started in your AdWords account:

1) Select Display Ad Builder >>Video>>YouTube Promoted Videos Template
2) Create your ad text
3) Select your video
4) Choose your thumbnail
5) Save your ad
