Using Google Ads Editor for bulk changes can save you a lot of time and effort. Here’s how to do it:
1. Download and install Google Ads Editor:
If you haven’t already, download and install Google Ads Editor on your computer. It’s available for both Windows and Mac.
2. Sign in to your Google Ads account:
Open Google Ads Editor and sign in using your Google Ads credentials.
3. Download your account:
Once signed in, download your Google Ads account into Google Ads Editor. This retrieves all your campaigns, ad groups, ads, keywords, etc., into the Editor.
4. Make bulk changes:
Navigate to the type of item you want to change (campaigns, ad groups, ads, keywords, etc.) using the left-hand navigation menu.
Select the items you want to edit by clicking on them while holding down the Ctrl or Command key to select multiple items.
Once selected, you can make changes to multiple items simultaneously. For example, you can change bids, update ad text, or adjust targeting settings.
5. Review changes:
Before posting your changes, review them carefully to ensure everything is correct. Google Ads Editor provides a preview function to help with this.
6. Post changes:
Once you’re satisfied with your edits, click the “Post changes” button. This applies the changes to your Google Ads account, but they’re not live yet.
7. Review and upload:
After posting your changes, review the summary to ensure everything looks good. Then, click “Upload changes” to make your edits live in your Google Ads account.
8. Check in Google Ads:
Finally, go back to your Google Ads account to ensure that the changes have been successfully applied.
Google Ads Editor is a powerful tool for managing large accounts and making bulk changes efficiently. Just be sure to double-check your edits before applying them to avoid any mistakes.
