In general, you can add absolutely any parameter from the available options that is necessary for further campaign analysis. However, remember that it is essential to include the click_id parameter in the final link to pass conversions.

Auto Optimization Tool

Before launching an eCommerce advertising campaign, we set up an Auto Optimization tool. We recommend you to set up an optimization period longer than for other offers (at least 96 hours) because you will get the first confirmed conversions 3-5 days after the campaign is started. Confirmed conversions for eCommerce offers are paid and received orders. Additionally, for eCommerce offers on Indonesia, we recommend you to optimize sources based on impressions.

We configured Auto Optimization according to the following rules:

  • Optimization period is 120 hours (5 days)
  • If a specific source ID has more than 7 000 ad impressions
    AND
  • generates less than 1 conversion,
then that source ID (zone) will be automatically added to the BlackList.
