Creative Groups allow you to group several creatives as a single unit. You can then apply different weights to each and later check the performance of one against the others.
They are very useful if you wish to display several variants of the same banners while keeping a simple configuration for Ads. They are also how you can run to determine which creatives perform best.
Fill in the details:
Name - how you want to call this creative group;
Tags - up to 5 labels that can be used to aid identification and searching;
Domain - this is the primary domain that the creatives on this group will take the user when clicked;
Type - the type of creative, can be any common IAB size like "Large Leaderboard (970x90)", "Banner (468x60)", etc.
Configure the creative group composition:
By default, the system will attribute equal weight to all creatives. If you wish to direct more traffic to one creative over another, simply adjust the weights column. The system will calculate the approximate ratio of impressions each one will have.
In the Creative Group list, by hovering the mouse over the warning sign, you can check the status of your creative.
Attention! If you delete a creative group, all data related to that creative group, including previously collected metrics, will also be deleted, this action cannot be undone.
The metrics tab will display all metrics related to the selected creatives or for the whole account if no creatives are selected. Find below all metrics available for your creative groups.
To check the performance of the creatives in a group, select the desired group on the list and then switch the metrics to be grouped by Creative instead of by Creative Group. You can then compare any of the available metrics between the creatives being tested in the group.
The real time tab will display real time events related to the selected creative group.
