Choose from options such as in-page or web push notifications, in-stream, banner ads, pop-up ads, etc. Consider the characteristics and benefits of each format and select the most suitable one for your campaign.

Please note that for some ad formats it is required to upload the creatives. Once the creatives are uploaded and you are done with campaign settings it will go to moderation. Find more details in steps below.

Step 5

Choose the Pricing Model

Next, you will be prompted to choose a pricing model for your campaign. Options vary depending on the ad format. They generally include Cost Per Click (CPC) and Cost Per Mille/Thousand Impressions (CPM). Assess your campaign objectives, budget, and desired outcome to determine the most appropriate pricing model for your campaign.

Step 6

Upload Creatives

Go to “Ad selection” section and create new one. You can also select the ad creatives if you uploaded them before. To make your campaign visually appealing and engaging, upload the creatives you have prepared. These may include banner images, video ads, text ads, or any other creative elements required for the selected ad format. Ensure that your creatives comply with the platform's guidelines and specifications regarding file formats, sizes, and quality.

Step 7

Choose Categories (Optional)

Select relevant categories that best represent the nature and theme of your campaign if needed. Choose categories that resonate with your product or service to enhance targeting effectiveness or do not select any category to drive more traffic.

Step 8

Set Targets and Targeting Parameters

Define your campaign targets by specifying the desired geographic locations, languages, devices, and operating systems you want to target. This step lets you focus your campaign on specific regions or demographics most relevant to your offering. Focus primarily on GEOs. Other targeting settings are optional.
