The news means GoDaddy will now let website designers and content creators track the success of their ad campaign from one dashboard, which can be accessed through GoDaddy Studio’s photo editor within Websites + Marketing.

Ad results can be viewed from the same dashboard, regardless of which social channel it appeared on, with businesses able to select ad campaigns for as low as $1 a day, with the ability to scale the campaign up from there.

“Paid social ads are an important way to drive website traffic that shouldn’t be overlooked - a whopping 69% of Americans use Facebook alone, and most GoDaddy customers more than doubled their website traffic increases when running a Facebook & Instagram ad,” the company said in ablog postannouncing the news.

“Now with Digital Ads, GoDaddy’s Websites + Marketing toolset continues to be a powerful one-stop shop for small businesses to create and amplify awareness for their brands, and ultimately sell more.”

Before this update, GoDaddy customers could only post directly to their social channels and boost social posts from their Websites + Marketing dashboards.
