The YouTube Ad Library does not provide explicit competitor tracking functionality. However, it can be used to gain insights into competitors’ past advertising strategies by analyzing their ad copies. Users can search for ad copies containing specific keywords or phrases and study the ad content, such as ad copy sentiment, CTAs used, and target audience identification.
Moreover, users can apply advanced filters to narrow down their search results. For instance, they can filter based on ad copy sentiment (positive, neutral, or negative) to understand competitors’ messaging strategies or filter by the presence of certain keywords (such as “discounts” or “deals”) to learn about pricing tactics.
