Two years ago, Google began lobbying publishers to build websites using its super-speedy design. Now it’s making the same pitch for ads. 

On May 18 at its I/O developer conference, the Alphabet Inc company introduced several features enabling advertising on Accelerated Mobile Pages, or AMP – the format that hosts web content directly inside search results. One new tool lets publishers using AMP run video ads, a booming source of digital-ad revenue, with Google’s dominant ad server DoubleClick.
