In the age of data driven decision making, automation is becoming more and more important in the ad tech world. Why spend your valuable time reading and analyzing tons of data to make advertising decisions? Instead, advertisers are using automation tools to increase engagement, ROI and profits without the need for endless hours of building and managing online campaigns.<\/span><\/p>\n

ExoClick provides a range of <\/span>automation tools<\/span><\/a>, it\u2019s like having a team of smart assistants working for you. All you need to do is set the parameters within which your \u2018assistants\u2019 should work. And the more \u2018assistants\u2019 you have, the more you can scale up your campaigns.<\/span><\/p>\n

How does automated advertising work?<\/b><\/p>\n

There are currently a few different ways that advertisers are automating their online advertising efforts. But here we will talk about two: monetary based algorithms and ad-performance based algorithms.<\/span><\/p>\n

Monetary algorithms use revenue and conversion data to automate your advertising based on your revenue and ROI data. For example, if you are running an e-commerce site your automation for campaigns would be with monetary based algorithms that analyse the sales and conversion data from your campaigns. The algorithm would use this data to increase or decrease bids on campaigns that are dependant on their monetary performance. If your ad campaign is generating more sales for your e-store, the algorithm will automatically increase bids on that campaign to reach the target ROI you have set.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Ad-performance based algorithms are based on the performance of your ad campaigns. They use performance data gathered from the campaigns you are currently running. These algorithms optimize the best campaigns and block or pause low performing ads and ad zones. Ad-performance based algorithms are usually controlled by rules. For example, you could set up rules that say, \u201cIf my ad gets a CTR lower than one percent after showing 20,000 impressions, then turn it off\u201d. This type of automation can really save you time checking all the ad zones that are performing well or under performing, if you have a good set of rules in place.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

ExoClick\u2019s automation tools<\/b><\/p>\n

Use <\/span>ExoClick\u2019s Bidder<\/span><\/a> to automate your bidding and black list non-performing ad zones in order to optimise your budget spend. As well as for running full blown campaigns, this is also extremely useful for running test budgets, allowing the algorithms to test your campaigns first before making that big investment. So you or your team don\u2019t have to worry about manually analysing and stopping\/pausing campaigns – the algorithm does it all for you.<\/span><\/p>\n

Here are some stats, the number of new users each month creating campaigns with The Bidder from Q1 to Q3:<\/span><\/p>\n
