Considerations When Creating a New Campaign
- You may want to create separate campaigns for components of your business requiring distinct:
- Geo-targeting
- Daily spending limits
- Schedules
- Additionally, campaigns using the Content Match tactic should be managed separately from campaigns using the Sponsored Search tactic.
To get started with the first step of creating a new campaign, click the Get Started button on the Create a Campaign page.
- You should monitor the performance of your Content Match campaigns to determine whether or not it effectively supports your advertising goals. You may find it useful to start with a single Content Match Campaign with lower bids, then monitor it over time before creating additional Content Match campaigns.
