Google Ads Preview Tools: 4 handy simulators in a row

The 4 tools that can simulate your paid search result

There are dozens of tools in Google that can do what the four below can do. But in my opinion, these are the nicest, fastest, best and most accessible tools.

I have listed them in the order in which I find them most comfortable to work with and which tool is the most complete. And we'll start with the NordicClick Google Ads Preview Tool.

1. NordicClick Google Ads Preview Tool.

The NordicClick Google Ads Preview Tool is by far the most complete little program on this list. All ad extensions are included, you can switch between device (mobile and desktop) and switch between Google Ads and Microsoft Ads.

In addition, NordicClick also provides some explanations of some of the new extensions, you can share your search result with the click of a button and they have added some fun phrases as placeholders.

2. Karooya Expanded Text Ad Preview Tool.

Karooya is the well-deserved No. 2. Indeed, in terms of features, the Expanded Text Ad Preview Tool lags just a bit behind NordicClick.

The tools are very similar, but there are certainly some differences. For example, the Karooya tool has :

• no placeholder text, but a good full-fledged ad
• the possibility of exporting to XLS
• and a handy Responsive Search Ad Preview Tool

3. Predikkta Free Adwords Simulator Tool.

My top favorites we've had now. My advice? Use those two. In case you don't like them anyway, I have two more honorable mentions that you might find pleasant to work with:

One of them is the Predikkta Free Adwords Simulator Tool.

In terms of functionalities and features, it lags behind the rest, but Predikkta does very helpfully indicate how many pixels the headline is and the tool explains the different parts of your ad clearly.

4. Andrew Marketing Ad Preview Tool.

Finally, number four: the Andrew Marketing Ad Preview Tool. This program is almost identical to the Predikkta tool, only with a little less functionality.

The advantage of Andrew Marketing's Ad Preview Tool is that you do have the ability to simulate multiple ads to make the picture more complete. This makes juxtaposing ads incredibly easy. And that's worth something, too!
