I'm not going to lie to you, I don't ever see google ads in my browser since I use Brave that blocks the pop-ups. However, considering that Google is still monetising this thing, there are still billions of people that still use chrome and other browsers that allow ads to show
In a recent move that is very bullish for crypto as a whole, google rescinded their "crypto ad ban" that was put in place in 2018. According to the statement;
Beginning August 3, advertisers offering Cryptocurrency Exchanges and Wallets targeting the United States may advertise those products and services when they meet the following requirements and are certified by Google
This basically means that crypto companies and exchanges will be able to promote their services on Google, as long as you meet their strict requirements.
I saw this news and thought about the marketing campaign that 
According to the policy, the following are still going to be prohibited on google ad services;
“ads for initial coin offerings, DeFi trading protocols, or otherwise promoting the purchase, sale, or trade of cryptocurrencies or related products”
So bad news for Cubfinance, we can't use them yet but there are many other options out there anyway. Leofinance on the other hand can get on the marketing train though.
The ban was initially placed on Exchanges and "crypto wallet" services. I presume Hive falls into the second category, so that means that we should be able to meet the requirements to advertising there?
For now, this will be targeting people in the USA that probably have the largest population of Hive users around here. According to Review 24, there are over 200 million unique users of Google services in the USA alone.
That makes the country a solid place to actually promote Hive and all it offers. The only thing left is how this will be incorporated into the marketing campaign that's already going on in the background.
