AdSense Custom Search AdsGoogle announced that they have launched a new default ad unit style that works better across all devices, mobile to desktop.

The changes include:

  • A new default color palette of blue and grey, making the ads easier to read for the user
  • An updated our default font to Roboto, designed for easier readability on mobile devices as well as desktop.
  • They aligned the text ad font with the web font they use on our Android OS.
  • Improved the call-to-action button by making the tap target size and position more user-friendly across devices
