5 killers of your budget

  1. Improper targeting

Wrong targeting is one of the main reasons for ineffective advertising costs. Another problem is the accuracy (or inaccuracy) of geo-targeting. Finally, advertisers frequently fail to tailor their advertisements, despite the fact that personalization is essential for effective interactions with different audiences.

  1. Insufficient testing

First, you should never neglect A/B testing - it's the easiest way to find out which creatives and sites work best. Secondly, you should never use only one ad variant. Using only one ad variant without testing its effectiveness limits your ability to optimize and increase conversions.

  1. Suboptimal keywords

Choosing keywords that are too generic or expensive. Generic keywords can attract a lot of traffic, but not always relevant traffic - and this will increase wasted costs. 

In addition, keywords require constant monitoring, updating and cleaning. 

  1. Ineffective sites

Not all the sites involved in your advertising campaign are equally effective. Sometimes some are less successful because they are not very targeted. Sometimes they perform well at first, but then they get "tired". When hundreds and thousands of different platforms are involved in a campaign, it is quite difficult to identify the "laggards". But according to our estimates, this factor eats up to 20% of the budget.

  1. Inefficient creatives

Pretty doesn't mean good and effective. While striving for perfection in your creative strategies, don't forget that your creatives should appeal to your target audience. Or, on the contrary, dislike it if it's a way to hook your audience.
