What makes an effective advertising medium
Effective ad media isn't just about impressions - it's about high conversion rates that lead to actual purchases, signups, and revenue. There are three criteria for determining what makes an ad effective.
🎯
Target accuracy
Are your ads actually reaching people who are likely to buy?
📊
Conversion connectivity
Is the flow from ad impression to click-to-install-to-purchase uninterrupted?
💰 â
Cost-effective
Can you get more conversions with the same budget?
The weakest link in these three criteria is the Target accuracyfor example. Search ads are only reaching people who are already interested, and social ads are losing accuracy with the discarding of 3rd-party cookies. Targeted ads based on 1st-party data, on the other hand, remain fully targeted and accurate in a cookie-less environment.
High ROI ad channels - targeting accuracy is key
The most direct way to increase your ad ROI is to use the Reducing wasted ad spendfor example. If you run ads to an unspecified number of people, most of your impressions will be wasted on people who are unlikely to convert.
