Google Ads Adds New Local Engagement Metrics

Google is rolling out two new reporting metrics in Google Ads and Local ads:

  1. Map Pin Clicks – Tracks when users click your business’s pin on Google Maps.
  2. Show Nearby Locations – Captures interactions where users view other nearby store options.

Both metrics are available under Campaigns → Segment → Click Type in your account.

These insights give advertisers a clearer view of how users interact with local listings, helping inform omnichannel strategies and store visit optimization.
