- Over 89% of traffic generated by search ads is not replaced by organic search results when ads are paused.
- Results are similar across verticals, among the broadest sample of consumers, and regardless of industry.
- 9 out of 10 visits to advertiser sites would never happen in the absence of related search ad campaigns.
