Summary

Yahoo! JAPAN Ads added symbols and increase the number of symbols available for ads and ad display assets in Search Ads. This change gives you a wider range of advertising expressions and a greater variety of expressions. Changes are as follows:

Add supported symbols

Three new symbols, ™, © and ®, will be available for the following ads (or ad display assets). The added symbols are classified as "Other" symbol type.

[Added to:]

• Responsive Ads for Search (title and description)
  *You can also use the added symbols for value of the ad customizer text type.
• App promotion ads (title and description)
• Dynamic Ads for Search (description)
• Ad Display Assets (quick link, category snippet, and callout)

New symbol type "Hyphen/equals" and the increase of number of available symbols

New symbol type "Hyphen/equals" and the increase of number of available symbols
We will add a new symbol type, "Hyphen/equals." "Hyphen/equals"includes full-width and half-width hyphens (ー,-) and full-width equals (＝).

You are also able to use up to three "Hyphen/equals" symbols in an asset for Responsive Ads for Search. Details on the number of  "Hyphen/equals" available, including other ads, are as follows.

Comments

• The full-width equals (＝) and full-width and half-width minuses (－,-) of the symbol type "Operator" symbol have been merged into "Hyphen/equals" and are therefore excluded from "Operator" symbol.
• There is no change in the number of available symbol types other than "Hyphen/equals."
