Why you should be testing image extensions in Google Ads by Clix Marketing
Last month, Google released some improvements for image extensions.
Image extensions allow you to enhance your ad and make search engine results friendlier. In tests, no conversions were directly related to this extension.

According to the latest updates, image extensions are now available on the desktop and in any language. Plus, you can use Google’s stock images.
In your Google account, go to Automated Extensions, click the three-dot button in the right corner and select Advanced Settings. Then you’ll see Dynamic Image Extensions at the bottom of the list.
