Use Videos: studies have shown that videos can drastically improve conversions, by up to 80%

Use Images: lifestyle images and directional cues to direct attention to the most important information on the page.

A/B Split Testing: test new ideas and content with A/B testing technologies and let your customers show you what works best for them.

Combines automated bid optimization with a selection of settings that you control and can apply across campaigns, ad groups, and keywords.

Pros

A great starting point for new campaigns, and those who are unsure of which strategy to use!

The most useful bidding strategy for non-advanced users to generate great results.

The advanced bidding strategy allows you to control multiple variables in your campaign for maximum results.
