TikTok is making a significant move in digital advertising with the launch of its “Search Ads” campaign. This new initiative, which began on September 24, 2024, enables advertisers to target users based on what they are actively searching for on the platform. Here’s a breakdown of TikTok’s strategy and how this could affect the future of social media advertising.
As TikTok strengthens its search ads portfolio, it’s changing the game for how brands connect with potential customers. The “Search Ads” campaign is designed to allow brands to reach users based on search intent, potentially converting those searches into ad revenue. By giving brands more control over ad placement, TikTok is positioning itself as a valuable tool for marketers focused on targeting high-intent audiences.
With TikTok’s new Search Ads Campaign, brands can target users through keyword-based search ads, making it possible to show ads directly in response to specific searches. Key features include:
TikTok’s new search ads allow for deeper engagement by reaching users when they’re actively looking for something. According to David Kaufman, TikTok’s Global Head of Monetization, adding search ads alongside in-feed ads has shown a 20% increase in conversions. This trend suggests that users who might skip an in-feed ad often interact after seeing a search ad, highlighting the potential of search ads to enhance product discovery.
With this new search ads format, brands can:
This move allows TikTok to compete with tech giants like Google and Amazon, who have long dominated the search ads space. TikTok’s offering could prompt marketers to consider shifting budgets from other platforms to TikTok, especially for campaigns centered on product discovery and brand awareness.
TikTok’s “Search Ads” campaign builds upon the platform’s Search Ads Toggle feature launched last October, which allowed in-feed ads to appear in search results as sponsored content. As TikTok continues to innovate in the social media advertising space, its new search ads feature may redefine the platform’s value for marketers looking to connect with high-intent audiences.
With the initial rollout limited to the U.S., TikTok is expected to expand this feature to other countries soon. As more data on engagement and conversions becomes available, marketers will be watching closely to see how TikTok’s search ads compete with established players and impact their advertising strategies.
