Utilize a maximum of 90 characters for long headlines and keep short ones under 30 characters. Aim for at least three short headlines and ensure proper grammar and spelling for credibility.

• What role do demographics play in targeting ads? 🎯

  Demographic targeting allows you to focus on specific audience segments based on age, gender, or other factors. It's crucial to clearly define personas (like whether they are parents) to prevent narrowing your market too much. A/B testing can further refine your approach to appealing to these demographics.

• What is A/B testing and how should I use it in my campaigns? 🛍️

  A/B testing involves comparing two versions of an ad (different audience targets, for example) to identify which performs better. It's important to keep other variables constant while testing to ensure accurate results. This method helps in fine-tuning your ad strategy and maximizing reach.

• How do I calculate my maximum CPC for profitability? 💰

  To break even with a daily budget, such as $114, you need a predetermined number of clicks per day—in this case, 400. Thus, your maximum CPC would be approximately 29 cents. Adjusting CPC based on product type and audience targeting is crucial to maintaining profitability.

• What factors should I consider when creating ad groups? 🧑‍💻

Testing different strategies helps optimize performance.
