When a campaign stops growing, keyword expansion can help reach new searches and audiences. A good approach is reviewing search term reports, competitor ideas, and related topics connected to the product or service. New keywords should still match user intent closely so traffic remains relevant. Testing small groups of keywords first can help identify opportunities without wasting budget. Growth often comes from finding useful searches that were previously overlooked. What do you think is the most reliable source for finding new keyword ideas in Google Ads?

In my opinion, the most reliable source is the Search Terms Report in Google Ads because it shows the actual queries real users typed before clicking your ads. This gives you very accurate, real-world keyword ideas based on proven performance, not guesses. Along with that, Google Keyword Planner can help expand those ideas, but search terms usually give the most practical and high-intent opportunities for growth.
The first step is to look at your search term reports and find queries that are already bringing clicks or conversions. A campaign often plateaus because it has already captured the obvious keywords. By reviewing real search terms, you can discover related phrases and long-tail keywords that people are using but that are not yet in your campaigns.

The best way is to expand carefully rather than adding hundreds of keywords at once. Add new keyword groups in small batches, monitor performance, and keep a close eye on search terms and conversion data. At the same time, continue adding negative keywords to prevent wasted spend.
