Summary
In this episode of The Google Ads Podcast, Lucas and Luna dive into Responsive Search Ads (RSAs) versus the legacy Expanded Text Ads (ETAs) in 2026. They break down why Google is pushing RSAs, how machine learning mixes headlines and descriptions to improve click-through rates, and the real-world impact on quality score and cost-per-click. Using a case study from a mid-size e-commerce client, they show how moving from ETAs to RSAs boosted conversion rates by 18 percent while lowering CPA by 12 percent. They also cover best practices for pinning headlines, testing combinations, and using assets to maximize ad rank. If you're running Google Ads campaigns, this episode gives you the concrete data and tactical advice to make the switch work for your accounts. #GoogleAds #ResponsiveSearchAds #ExpandedTextAds #PPC #SearchAds #SEM #DigitalMarketing #AdCopyTesting #QualityScore #ClickThroughRate #CostPerClick #ConversionRate #GoogleAds2026 #AdRank #HeadlinePinning #MachineLearning #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
