In the beginning, we focused on creating a shopping campaign, dynamic search campaign, and standard search campaigns. We created a generic search campaign targeting a variety of products. We also created separate search campaigns for some of the most popular categories.
We frequently created ad tests for each search ad group, letting them battle each other. The least performing ad was then paused, and a new one created in its place.
If we saw a performance dip, we would adjust the bidding strategy, adjust budgets, and pause any lower performing ad groups.
We then created a display campaign and dynamic search campaign retargeting all website visitors. This was a vital step as returning visitors are more likely to convert than new visitors.
For the Performance Max campaign type, we monitored results very closely and made changes where needed, as with all our campaigns.
