What is Google Adwords?
Google AdWords is Google's advertising system in which marketers bid on certain keywords so that their clickable ad appears in Google's search results in a prominent position. The store administrator must pay a fee each time a potential customer clicks on their site's URL on Google search result pages.
Since the product data parameters in Google Adwords and Magento 2 are entirely compatible, the store administrator can apply these values to the store's product data, thereby generating Product Feed. Because Magento 2 no longer supports feed generation, you must use an additional product feed extension. Moreover, Google Adwords enables advertising for a variety of business types; in this article, I will demonstrate how to upload product feeds to Google Adwords for your usual business.

Step 1: Register and use Google Merchant
