GOOGLE ADS
Google Ads campaigns, from brief to paused campaign
AdsFellow builds your Google Ads strategy, copy and visuals, then creates the campaign in your account, paused: nothing spends until you activate it yourself in Google Ads.
What AdsFellow prepares for Google Ads
AdsFellow prepares your Google Ads strategy, copy and visuals, then creates the campaign paused in your account. Depending on the format, your ads are text at the top of Google search results, or ads with images, and sometimes video, on YouTube, Gmail, Discover and Google’s partner sites.
- Search: text (headlines and descriptions) at the top of Google results, when someone searches your keywords
- Performance Max, Demand Gen and Display: ads with images, and video depending on the format, on YouTube, Gmail, Discover and Google’s partner sites
- Audiences can be added “in observation” (in-market intent, interests, professional profile): they enrich your reporting without limiting who sees your ads
- Nothing is posted on a profile or social network
- The campaign is created paused: nothing spends until you activate it
What AdsFellow builds for Google Ads
A real media plan
Budget split across Search and Performance Max, with keyword themes grouped by intent.
Search-ready ad copy
Responsive search ads (Google mixes your headlines and descriptions), written for what people search for, ready to review and adjust.
Performance Max guidance
Asset group direction and audience signals so Performance Max starts with structure, not guesswork.
Paused creation in your account
Search, Display, Performance Max, Demand Gen, Shopping, App, Hotels and other formats are open: AdsFellow creates everything paused, then reads each item back from Google before confirming. The journey list shows what each format needs.
Every Google Ads journey
Each line is one type of Google Ads ad. This list follows the app’s actual state.

Questions about Google Ads
Can AdsFellow create campaigns in my Google Ads account?
Yes, for the open formats (see the journey list). AdsFellow creates the campaign paused in your account; you review it, then activate it yourself in Google Ads. Some formats need an existing catalog, app or feed: the app guides you step by step.
Do the ads start on their own?
No. Everything is created paused: nothing spends until you activate the campaign yourself in Google Ads.
Do I need my own Google Ads account?
Yes. You connect your own account through Google's official login. AdsFellow never asks for your password.
What does AdsFellow generate for Google specifically?
Search campaign structure, keyword themes by intent, responsive search ads and, for Performance Max, the asset groups (copy, images) and audience signals.
Is connecting my Google Ads account safe?
You connect via official login (OAuth), your access is stored encrypted, and you can disconnect at any time.
Google asks me for a passkey: what is it?
A passkey replaces your password: you confirm it’s you with your phone or computer’s screen lock (fingerprint, face or PIN). Since August 2026, Google requires one whenever a tool like AdsFellow connects to a Google Ads account, so that no stranger can take control of it; a password alone or an SMS code is no longer enough. To create it: g.co/passkeys, with the Google account that manages your Google Ads, then “Create a passkey”. It takes a few minutes, then up to 7 days before Google accepts it: create it before connecting Google.
Does AdsFellow set a budget on my Google Ads campaigns?
AdsFellow sets a minimal technical budget on the campaign, which is created paused: nothing spends. You set your real budget in Google Ads before activating it.
Which campaign objectives can I run for Google?
AdsFellow builds your Search campaign around your goal (leads, sales or traffic) with keyword themes by intent, plus Performance Max guidance when it fits.
Can I edit the campaign before I activate it on Google?
Yes. You edit the copy and visuals in AdsFellow before sending. The campaign is then created paused in your Google Ads account: you can still edit it before activating it yourself.
Build your Google Ads Campaign Plan
A short brief is enough: AdsFellow prepares the Plan, ad copy and visuals, then creates the campaign paused in your account when the format is open. Otherwise, you download them to set up yourself.
