How Do I Add Google Ads to WooCommerce?

Last updated on January 23, 2023 @ 7:33 am

Adding Google Ads to your WooCommerce store is a great way to generate revenue from your online store. There are a few different ways to add Google Ads to your WooCommerce store, and in this article, we will show you how to do it.

Option 1: Add Google Ads to Your WooCommerce Store Using a Plugin

There are a few plugins that will allow you to add Google Ads to your WooCommerce store. We recommend using the Ad Inserter plugin, which is a free plugin that allows you to insert Google Ads into your WooCommerce store.

To use the Ad Inserter plugin, first, you need to install and activate it. For more details, see our step by step guide on how to install a WordPress plugin.

Once the plugin is activated, you need to go to Settings » Ad Inserter to configure the plugin settings. On the plugin settings page, you will see the ‘WooCommerce’ tab. Click on it to open the WooCommerce settings.

PRO TIP: Google Ads can be added to WooCommerce to help promote your products and services. However, before doing so, please be aware of the following:

1. Google Ads can be disruptive to the user experience on your website.

2. Adding Google Ads to WooCommerce may slow down your website’s loading speed.

3. Please make sure that you are familiar with Google’s terms and conditions before adding their code to your website.

The first option under the WooCommerce settings is ‘Display Ad Above Products’. You can select the position of your ad, and then enter your ad code in the box below it. Once you are done, click on the ‘Save Changes’ button at the bottom of the page.

Option 2: Add Google Ads to Your WooCommerce Store Manually

If you don’t want to use a plugin, then you can also add Google Ads to your WooCommerce store manually. First, you need to get your ad code from Google Adsense.

Next, you need to edit your WordPress themes header.php file and add your ad code before the tag. If you are not sure how to edit your header file, then we recommend that you take a look at our guide on how to edit WordPress theme files.

Once you have added your ad code in header.php file, save it and upload it back to your server. You can now visit your website to see the ad displayed on your WooCommerce store.

Adding Google Ads is a great way for revenue on online stores such as WooCommerce. It can be done through plugins or by manual input of an HTML code in specific areas of interest within the website (e..g before < body > tag in header).
