Competitor ad research

Why it works.

Advertisers keep paying for ads that make money and stop the ones that do not. So the start date is the most useful field here: an ad that has been running for three months is a tested winner, and you can read exactly what it says.

Searching by keyword also surfaces affiliates and partners who advertise a brand. Searching by Page ID (with an API key) gives you only the brand’s own ads.

Questions

Good to know.

Why are there ads from other advertisers in the results?

A keyword search matches ad text, so affiliates and partners who mention the brand show up too. The sample on this page has such ads. Use the advertiser’s Page ID for only their own ads.

Can I see how much they spend?

No. The Ad Library does not show spend for regular commercial ads, only for political and social issue ads.

Can I see ads in other countries?

Yes, set the country code (US, GB, DE …) or ALL for worldwide.
