Ad Extensions & Assets

Recommend sitelinks, callouts, structured snippets, and call/location assets that make your ads bigger and more useful

What This Prompt Does

Ad extensions (now called assets) take up more SERP real estate and give users shortcuts to the right page. This prompt recommends the specific sitelinks, callouts, structured snippets, and call/location assets that make sense for your offer — and explains why each one helps the user choose.

When to Use It

  • Launching a new account with no assets configured yet
  • Ad Strength or asset coverage is flagged as weak
  • Call-tracking is enabled and you want call assets that match the offer
  • Competitor ads look bigger because they use every asset and yours don't

How the Prompt Is Structured

1

Sitelink ≠ Callout ≠ Snippet

Sitelinks route the user to deeper pages. Callouts are short benefit bullets. Structured snippets label lists ("Services: A, B, C"). The prompt asks for all three separately because each plays a different SERP role.

2

Call and Location Assets

Call assets (formerly extensions) are critical for any service business where the conversion is a phone call. Location assets tie the ad to a physical address. The prompt flags whether each is appropriate rather than assuming.

3

"Do Not Invent Services"

Asset copy shows up verbatim in the SERP. Inventing unsupported services (24-hour service when you don't offer it) triggers disapprovals and user disappointment. The constraint keeps every line provable.

4

"Why Each Asset Helps"

The reason column distinguishes decorative assets from useful ones. If you can't explain why an asset helps the user decide, cut it.

Example Output

Recommended Sitelinks

  • • Emergency Services — sends urgent clickers straight to the right page
  • • Service Area — addresses the first question local searchers ask
  • • Pricing — filters window shoppers before they click
  • • Customer Reviews — builds trust without needing the user to go hunting

Recommended Callouts

24/7 Dispatch • Licensed & Insured • Flat-Rate Estimates • Same-Day Response • No Weekend Surcharge • 500+ Local Customers

Recommended Structured Snippets

Services: Emergency Plumbing, Burst Pipe Repair, Drain Cleaning, Water Heater Repair, Leak Detection

Other Useful Assets

  • Call asset: Yes — service is largely phone-booked, and call tracking should be on.
  • Location asset: Yes — a real address in Bozeman reinforces local signal.
  • Price asset: Optional — useful if you publish flat-rate pricing.

Tips for Better Results

Write Descriptions for Every Sitelink

Sitelinks with descriptions dominate more screen area. Skip them and Google shows a single compact line instead.

Set Call Asset Hours Accurately

Call assets only serve when someone can answer. Mismatched hours kill lead quality — and the ad keeps spending while the phone rings into voicemail.

Rotate Callouts Quarterly

Audit asset performance every few months. Replace the two weakest callouts with fresh variants to keep the ads lively.

Disclose Price Ranges Carefully

Price assets can reduce lead volume but massively improve lead quality. Test with caution — measure CPA, not just click volume.
