Google Ads is no longer maintaining individual and ad group keyword forecasting in Keyword Planner.
Few advertisers were using these features so the platform decided to retire them, according to Ginny Marvin, Google’s Ad Liaison, on X (formerly known as Twitter).
However, campaign-level forecasts and historical keyword-level data are still available.
Why we care. By discontinuing the maintenance of individual and ad group keyword forecasting, advertisers lose access to related insights, including metrics like spend, which could affect how they make informed decisions and optimize advertising strategies effectively.
