Automatic Optimization is a powerful tool that can save you countless hours of optimization but if you aren't writing your rules correctly they can actually do more harm than good. Below are our best practices guide and tried & tested automatically rules to help inspire you when you are creating yours. 

Best practices

  • It is important to keep in mind that the first condition should always be spent because this ensures that there have been enough clicks to properly optimize. 

  • We also recommend that when testing a new rule that you check to see how much traffic has been cut off because it is easy to accidentally cut off too much. 

  • Use spent, conversions and ROI to automatically pause poor-performing offers. 

  • Use spent, conversions and ROI to automatically blacklist poor-performing supplies and user age groups. 

  • Use spent, conversions and ROI to automatically blacklist poor-performing supplies. 

  • Use win rate combined with spent or ROI to increase the bid on high-performing supplies.

  • Use spent, conversions and ROI to decrease the bid on poor-performing supplies.

  • Normally, you want to use shorter time frames for pausing offers and longer time frames for blacklisting supplies.
