Yahoo! JAPAN Ads now offers a powerful tool for audience targeting: Ad action users.
This game-changing feature allows you to create audience lists based on users' interactions with your specific ads. Did someone click on your banner ad? Watch your video ad? Convert through a call to action? Now, you can target those engaged users with even more relevant campaigns!
Here's how it works:
- Define the Action: Choose which ad interaction you want to track, like clicks, conversions, or video views.
- Select the Source: You can choose to reach people who engaged with your entire campaign. Alternatively, you can target a specific ad group. You also have the option to focus on just one ad.
- Set the Duration: Determine how long you want to keep user data in your audience list (up to 90 days).
Unlocking Granular Targeting:
With "Ad action users," you can create highly targeted campaigns that reach users who have already shown interest in your product or service. This allows you to:
- Retarget Engaged Users: Re-engage users who clicked on your ad but didn't convert, bringing them back down the sales funnel.
- Target Lookalike Audiences: Build audience lists similar to your existing engaged users, reaching a wider pool of potential customers.
- Optimize Campaign Performance: Tailor your ads to users who are most likely to respond, leading to better campaign results.
