1. What is a Broad Match?

Keywords:

A keyword match type allows your ad to show on searches that are related to the meaning of your keyword, which can include searches that don’t contain the keyword terms. This allows you to reach more searches than with exact and phrase matches.

Broad match is the default match type that all your keywords are assigned. This helps your ads reach a wider audience without requiring you to build an extensive keyword list. For example, let’s say you have the broad match keyword car window repair. This keyword can reach searches such as automobile glass replacement, even though it doesn't include any of the words as your keyword because they relate to the query.

Negative Keywords:

A keyword setting that allows you to exclude your ad for searches where every word of your keyword phrase, in any order, appears in the search. Your ad may still show for situations where some of the keywords appear.

2. What is a Exact Match?

Keywords:

A keyword match type that allows you to show your ads on searches that have the same meaning or intent as your keyword. Exact match gives you the most control over who sees your ad, but reaches fewer searches than both phrase and broad match. This allows you to reach only users who make searches with the same meaning as your keywords.

Negative Keywords:

A keyword setting that allows you to exclude your ad for searches of the exact keyword phrase—without extra words. Your ad may still show for searches that include the keyword phrase with additional words.
