Remarketing is widely known as one of the most effective advertising strategy thanks to its ability to target website visitors that didn't convert. Remarketing ads can be created through multiple ad platforms and there are several strategies that can be used to boost its benefits.
Let's have a look at five different ways to remarket that are worth implementing right away.
1. Cross channel advertising.
Developing a memorable, top of mind brand is without a doubt among the most important sales precursor. People like to buy from brands that they recognize and have seen more there once during their online daily browse.
The concept of cross channel advertising allows businesses to shorten the time needed become a recognizable brand by displaying ads on multiple platforms to previous website visitors.
For instance, if a user visits a website after clicking an ad on Google, the cross channel advertising theory would recommend to advertise to the same user when he logs in Facebook and Twitter and when he visits other websites that allow to display ads.
2. Take advantage of Google Analytics.
Google Analytics is a great tool for companies that are looking to start a remarketing strategy because it allows to create user lists based on their behaviors on a website. For instance, Google Analytics allows the creation of lists based on time on site, page views, exit pages, goals achievement and much more.

3. Use remarketing for search.
Remarketing for search allows businesses to target people that previously visited the website of a business while they are looking any custom selected keyword on Google. Considering that we are targeting previous website visitors, businesses can select broader keywords for a remarketing for search campaign.
Google has recently mentioned to me that based on studies that they are currently running, remarketing for search has proven to be one of the most effective campaign for businesses in terms of cost per acquisition.

4. Remarketing for ecommerce businesses.
Businesses with thousands of products are going to have a hard time to create a banner for each of their products. Both Google and Facebook offer the opportunity to create dynamic remarketing ads and they work very well.
Google currently allows to use Google's templates for dynamic remarketing ads but they have told us that they are currently developing a system to allow advertisers to upload their own custom dynamic banners.
5. Remarket on YouTube.
YouTube ads are create and managed using Google AdWords. This means that they can use audiences that are available within AdWords, including the ones created in Google Analytics.
YouTube allows for both video and banner advertising. Video ads are more likely to generate branding and visibility but not as many clicks to the website. On the contrary, banner ads generate more clicks to the website but less branding.
