How to Create Audience List in Magento 2 Google Adwords Dynamic Remarketing?

Magento 2 Google Adwords Dynamic Remarketing is one of the most powerful trackings any e-commerce store can have. It enables stores to make and show targeted ads to a specific set of audiences. Targeted ads help rapidly increase conversions. Scommerce Mage offers Magento 2 Google Adwords Dynamic Remarketing extension which easily implements dynamic remarketing on Magento 2 stores. Today we will learn how to create audience lists and use them to create targetted ads in Google Adwords. 

What is the Audience List?

An audience list is basically a list of users that visit your store and perform certain actions. The entire purpose of creating an audience list is to create of list of users that you want to target with your ads. Having such a list can increase the chances of conversion. For eg:- suppose you have an audience list of customers that have added products to the cart previously. If we target our ads only to such customers then they are highly likely to click on the ad and make the purchase. Audience lists help store owners to narrow down the entire pool of users to certain specific groups so that with the minimum investment in ads they can get more purchases in the store.
