How to View International Adwords Ads
Ever wanted to see what adwords ads people are seeing in other countries? Well you can do so by adding the “gl” operator at the end of your url query string along with the country code of the country of interest like so:
http://www.google.com/search?q=compare+laptops&gl=us for the US
http://www.google.com/search?q=compare+laptops&gl=au for Australia
http://www.google.com/search?q=compare+laptops&gl=uk for the UK
This could come in handy if you’re interested in viewing ads you’ve purchased for other countries or even if you’re simply looking for some creative inspiration for your own adwords ads. If you’re doing it for the latter, make sure you do not outright copy the ad as this will cause your adwords quality score to decrease thereby increasing your bid price. Worst still, if you’re caught stealing copyrighted material, Google may ban your account.
