You’ll see better campaign performance
You’ll be able to opt in without a budget increase
You’ll be implementing best practices routinely to your Google Ads accounts.
Why is this the correct answer?
Three benefits of opting in to automatic applying of recommendations are seeing better campaign performance, being able to opt in without a budget increase, and implementing best practices routinely to your Google Ads accounts. Auto-apply continuously implements Google's recommended improvements — such as adding responsive search ad assets, adjusting bids, or expanding keywords — without requiring manual review for every change. These incremental improvements compound over time, raising overall campaign effectiveness without requiring additional spend, and ensure best practices are maintained consistently across all campaigns.
Why are the other options wrong?
You’ll be implementing responsive search ads automatically
Automatically implementing responsive search ads is a possible outcome of specific auto-apply recommendations, but it is not one of the three stated universal benefits of opting in to auto-apply.
You’ll be automatically opting into Smart Bidding.
Automatically opting into Smart Bidding is not a benefit of auto-apply recommendations — Smart Bidding is a separate campaign setting that must be enabled independently.
Real-world example
A small business owner enables auto-apply recommendations on her Google Ads account. Over three months, the system automatically adds new keyword variations, updates ad assets, and refines bid adjustments. Campaign click-through rate improves from 3.1% to 5.4% and cost per conversion drops by 19% — all without a budget increase — as best practices are routinely applied in the background.
