Create Ad Groups for ChatGPT

Best practices for creating ad groups for ChatGPT

Updated: 2 days ago

Ad groups help organize your campaigns into focused themes and include context hints, which help determine how your ads are matched to relevant conversations in ChatGPT.

Each ad group contains:

  • Ad group title

  • Context hints: describe the conversations, topics, or keywords where your products or services may be relevant; these hints guide matching but are not exact-match targeting rules

  • Maximum CPC bid, for campaigns with a Clicks objective; for campaigns with a Reach objective, this field does not apply

Writing effective context hints

Context hints help ChatGPT understand the types of conversations your ads should be eligible for.

Think of context hints as broad thematic signals, not exact keyword matching.

Good context hints:

  • Describe the user intent or topic area

  • Stay closely related to your ad group theme and ads within the ad group

  • Write context hints that describe the types of questions, needs, or situations a user might bring to ChatGPT, rather than just listing standalone keywords

  • Prioritize relevance over broad coverage

Best practices

  • Keep each ad group focused on a single product category, theme, or intent area

  • Use separate ad groups for meaningfully different audiences or use cases

  • Avoid combining unrelated products or themes into the same ad group

  • Include multiple ads within each ad group to test different messaging approaches
