Limitations

Advertising in a new country can come with its own set of challenges, whether you’re using Google Shopping or expanding other PPC channels. Each market has its own rules, cultural expectations and unique buying habits, always do your research before reaching out to a new country. 

Some of the countries listed above are in “beta” and haven’t been fully rolled out, which means overall performance may differ. Some products advertised in beta countries may not show everywhere and there may be specific guidelines for some countries.
