Agenda


Typical Use CaseGreat Laptops.com sells computers online. They plan to run a campaign with MM and the campaign’s goal is to retarget users that visited their site, but left without making a purchase. The advertiser wants to serve those users ads with deals on products that match their interests.

Can they do that?


Retargeting

▸ Allows advertisers to target visitors of their site

▸ With specific ads

▸ That match their interest

How does this work?


Retargeting Process


Retargeting Process

1. A user visits the advertiser's site, which has a retargeting tag implemented on it.


Retargeting Process

Retargeting Tags

3 Options

Generic tag Tag with Values

Provides Exist/Absent indication.

Up to 32 tags.

Allows to assign different values to the same tag (increase the number of products we can tag to 32x50).

But only the last value is available for each tag!

Dynamic tag

Available to SVP clients only.

Allows to use a single tag and place it on all pages.

Will be covered in

the SVP session


Retargeting Tags Set Up

Advertiser Tags Retargeting

1


Retargeting Tags Set Up

Up to 32 tags Up to 50 values in each tag

Create a new tag (assigning values – optional)

1

If a user does not assign values – the tag will be served to indicate whether or not a user has visited a certain page or performed a certain action.


Retargeting Tags Set UpCreate a new tag (assigning values – optional)

1

GreatLaptops .com created a general tag that will be placed on the purchase page and will allow for knowing whether users have completed a purchase or not.



1

GreatLaptops .com can either create a tag per product, or enter values in a single tag (as illustrated here), which will represent the different products.

Good utilization of a single tag, but note that only the last value of each tag is kept.



1

GreatLaptops .com chose to use tag with values for the different laptop models.


Tags implementation

Generate the code and send it to the advertiser

2

Note: when general tags are used – users will no longer have to replace the variable with the value 1 – the code already contain the right value.


// In the code below, you will find a LaptopModel’s parameter.// The LaptopModelID parameter is to be dynamically// set to reflect the retargeting tag "LaptopModel" value relevant to the user.// when served, please replace the token in the tag with the actual value ID// Set the parameter to 0 to reflect the value: [Laptop c]// Set the parameter to 1 to reflect the value: [Laptop B]// Set the parameter to 2 to reflect the value: [Laptop A]// The retargeting Tags should be placed at the top of the <BODY> section of the HTML page.

Script partvar LaptopModelID ='[LaptopModelID]';

Tags implementation

Generate the code and send it to the advertiser

2

When multiple values are used – the user will have to replace the parameter with the right value for each page (product).


Tags implementation

You can check whether implementation is correct by:

1. Turning test mode on through: http://activity.serving-sys.com/activity/testmode.ebasp

2. Do the activity on the advertiser site, then check the pop up window that appears…

Target Audience Set Up

Set up Target Audience

3

You can add up to five conditions using AND/Or rules. AND is stronger than OR, meaning that it will be done first. You can think of it as adding parenthesis before and after terms that have AND between them: a AND b OR c AND d = (a AND b) or (c AND d).


Match Ads with Audience

Assign relevant ads to each target audience

Which tags to create?▸ Example: a car manufacturer (Toyota) wants to target

according to the different vehicle models (Yaris, Corolla…), and type of vehicle (cars, trucks…)

▸ How would you set up the tags?


Remember…▸ The maximum number of retargeting tags you can

create for an advertiser is 32

▸ The maximum number of values you can assign to a retargeting tag is 50

▸ Only the latest value is saved per tag

▸ And…you can have up to 5 rules (4 And/Or operations) per target audience.


Possible choices:Option 1: One tag with all models and types as values

▸ Tag name: Car model

▸ Values: Yaris, Corolla, Rav4…

Advantage:o Good utilization of a single tagBut…o How many models are there? More than 50 – then cannot

implement this wayo Only the last value is kept –if the user saw different car

models – we will only know about the last one


Possible choices:Option 2: Tag per each model

Tag name: YarisTag name: Corolla

…Advantage: o You always know if the user visited a certain pageBut…o What do you do if there are more than 32 products?o Depending on the number of models – you may have used all

the tags for this advertiser, and cannot add new ones….


Possible choices:Option 3: Tag per each group, inside the group, use

values for different items:▸Tag name: Family Cars

Values: Yaris, Corolla…▸Tag name: SUVs and Vans

Values: Rav4,…

Advantage: o Can cover more possibilities than either of the previous

optionsBut…o Only the last value of each group is availableo What if a single group has more than 50 values?
