class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Targeted media buying gives you the ability to target a specific Device, Operating System, GEO, Language, Mobile Carrier, Source\/Websites, Browser, User Interests, Dayparting or any other particular aspect you want to target on your advertising campaigns.<\/p>\n<p>You may find more or less targeting filters depending on the advertising network you&#8217;re using.<\/p>\n<p>Usually, media buyers target campaigns based on reliable data they analyze, which allows them to decide that a campaign will become more profitable if it becomes more targeted to a certain slice of the global audience.<\/p>\n<p>Targeting is one of the most important concepts in affiliate marketing and advertising.<\/p>\n<p>Got your targeting wrong in your media buying process?<\/p>\n<p>You might as well be sending that cash out the window.<\/p>\n<p>Why is it so important to have thorough online targeting settings?<\/p>\n<p>When you target wrongly, <strong>you lose money<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>When you target right but don\u2019t see conversions, <strong>you gather data<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p><strong>First scenario:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>You\u2019ll have data that doesn\u2019t matter to you, because you can\u2019t do anything with it.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Second scenario:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>You\u2019ll gather essential data to optimize later on.<\/p>\n<p>This is why campaign targeting is so important in this game.<\/p>\n<p>You make your decisions based on the data you gather, meaning that this is a fundamental parameter you need to think about at all times.<\/p>\n<p>A well-performed campaign targeting can increase the CR (Conversion Rate) and the CTR (Click-through rate.)<\/p>\n<p>It can also make sure you get traffic of a higher quality; traffic which is more suitable to what you\u2019re looking for.<\/p>\n<p>And guess what?<\/p>\n<p>Even if you don\u2019t see any conversions at first, you know you\u2019re gathering data to make better and wiser decisions.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"campaign-targeting-in-affiliate-marketing-general-overview\"><\/span><strong>Campaign Targeting in Affiliate Marketing:

class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Basic targeting is the simplest and most common targeting you can find while creating your campaigns. It\u2019s related to general characteristics of the campaign like the geo targeting (can be country, region, state, etc.), the format sizes\/banner sizes you promote or the categories related to your traffic.<\/p>\n<p>It usually allows you to select the category of your traffic, ad format and the country from where you want to buy traffic.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-26328 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mobidea.com\/academy\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/image2.jpg\" alt=\"basic targeting\" width=\"700\" height=\"345\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mobidea.com\/academy\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/image2.jpg 700w, https:\/\/www.mobidea.com\/academy\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/image2-250x123.jpg 250w, https:\/\/www.mobidea.com\/academy\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/image2-120x59.jpg 120w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"targeted-media-buying-advanced-targeting\"><\/span><strong>Targeted Media Buying: Advanced Targeting<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Advanced targeting is a kind of targeting that allows you to target an audience more precisely through such parameters as selecting the operators, operating system, device, traffic source, the specific location of the users, user freshness and any other available targeting filters.<\/p>\n<p>As everything is connected, you need to be aware of, and to be able to understand, the reasons for choosing your global and specific targeting as this can have a huge impact on your performance.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"operators\"><\/span><strong>Operators<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Operator targeting allows you to target your campaigns to users based on their mobile carriers.<\/p>\n<p>Choosing the right operator is an important decision.<\/p>\n<p>How to select the operator?<\/p>\n<p>First, you need to check which carriers are accepted by the offer you\u2019re going to promote.<\/p>\n<p>Second, you can count on your account manager to provide you with the information on performance for all the carriers and Wi-Fi.<\/p>\n<p>Third, check the volumes and the bids on your ad network.<\/p>\n<p>Remember: In general, <strong>Wi-Fi has cheaper traffic and huge volumes<\/strong>.

Devices<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Desktop (Windows, Mac) or Mobile (Android, Blackberry, etc.)<\/p>\n<p>Campaigns can be set to target specific operating systems and devices, which gives you greater control over the audience who actually see your ad.<\/p>\n<p>There are a lot of operating systems.<\/p>\n<p>Even so, we must check Android, iOS and Windows mobile.<\/p>\n<p>Generally speaking, Android is the operating system with the largest volumes.<\/p>\n<p>However, you\u2019ll also notice that users tend to use iOS in some countries (e.g. United States, Canada, and Australia.)<\/p>\n<p>Taking this into consideration, you need to check the volumes and performance of each operating system to make the best choice for your campaign.<\/p>\n<p>Users are using different devices to navigate the online world, but the majority of mobile users are connected via their phones.<\/p>\n<p>Don\u2019t restrict your campaigns to mobiles only, though<\/p>\n<p>Why?<\/p>\n<p>Because tablets, for instance, can have decent performance in some GEOs.<\/p>\n<p>If you notice a huge difference between performances, you can always split OS per campaign and adjust your options.<\/p>\n<p>Take in consideration that you also need to cross-match OS, devices and Browsers.<\/p>\n<p>If you select only iOS for your campaign, you cannot forget to have both iPhone on the devices and Safari as the browser.<\/p>\n<p>OS can imply for example different strategies.<\/p>\n<p>For an Android-only campaign, iOS banners should have a lower performance (check our article about Banner Optimization).<\/p>\n<p>Remember to adjust device target according to the offers\u2019 characteristics.<\/p>\n<p>The offer characteristics can have a huge impact on browser and device performance.<\/p>\n<p>The way we present the offer to our visitors will decide how well our offer performs.<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s why it\u2019s important to have specific stats per browser or device in order to optimize, and don\u2019t discard data in any feature.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"languages\"><\/span><strong>Languages<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Language targeting allows you to filter users based on their language.<\/p>\n<p>This feature is particularly useful for countries which use several languages.<\/p>\n<p>Imagine you want to launch a campaign for Belgium.<\/p>\n<p>Tricky!<\/p>\n<p>This is a country in which people speak Dutch, French and German.<\/p>\n<p>How to go about it?<\/p>\n<p>In this case, you can create different campaigns separated by language and use creatives in the proper language, which will surely increase your conversion rates.<\/p>\n<p>You can even select all languages and analyze how each performs for your campaign.<\/p>\n<p>Moreover, there are some kinds of offers which are directed at a specific audience.<\/p>\n<p>We\u2019re referring to offers for Spanish-speaking users who live in the United States, for instance.<\/p>\n<p>What does this mean?<\/p>\n<p>That you can easily target language on the campaign settings.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"user-freshness\"><\/span><strong>User Freshness<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>This targeting filter is very common to find in push notification advertising networks.

regarding websites and even corresponding zones.<\/p>\n<p>Other ad networks won\u2019t give you the info on the website name, which means you\u2019ll have source IDs.<\/p>\n<p>What\u2019s more important?<\/p>\n<p>The opportunity to optimize your stats, based on the info provided, whether it be website name or source ID.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"keywords\"><\/span><strong>Keywords<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Some advertising networks have keyword targeting.<\/p>\n<p>This means you can pick words or phrases related to the offer you\u2019re promoting in order to target relevant users.<\/p>\n<p>Each keyword will gather traffic from several websites.<\/p>\n<p>Want to make sure your ad has got the best exposure possible?<\/p>\n<p>Then go ahead and use generic keywords.<\/p>\n<p>There are many ad networks which have handy traffic estimators for keywords.<\/p>\n<p>These show you the volume of traffic for each selected keyword in a specific country, device, or operating system.<\/p>\n<p>Wondering how to come up with ideas for awesome keywords?<\/p>\n<p>Nowadays, there are a lot of tools which can help you out.<\/p>\n<p>We recommend you try <a class=\"thirstylink\" title=\"semrush trial\" href=\"https:\/\/www.mobidea.com\/academy\/recommends\/semrush-trial\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">SEMrush<\/a> (14-day free trial) which gives you a huge variety of keywords connected to the one you\u2019ve selected.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"ip-range-targeting\"><\/span><strong>IP Range Targeting<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Many affiliates collect their personal lists of IP addresses, which help them improve performance by addressing the ads to relevant users only.<\/p>\n<p>Beware, though: The performance of your IP list may vary.<\/p>\n<p>It can be better or worse than targeting a specific carrier on an ad network.<\/p>\n<p>What\u2019s the advice?<\/p>\n<p>Test both and compare the performance to choose the winner!<\/p>\n<p>Where to get the IP ranges like a media buying veteran?<\/p>\n<p>Have you been running your affiliate marketing campaign for a while now?<\/p>\n<p>Then the easiest way of getting IPs is from your stats.<\/p>\n<p>Just check your tracker\u2019s stats for IP for the carrier you want.<\/p>\n<p>You can also ask your affiliate manager for IP ranges.<\/p>\n<p>Advertisers usually share the lists of IPs with the affiliate network.<\/p>\n<p>This means your account manager will gladly give them to you.<\/p>\n<p>You should get close with your account manager.<\/p>\n<p>Why?<\/p>\n<p>Because they can give you the IPs which have successfully converted on the whole network.<\/p>\n<p>You can use third-party services and purchase data bases of IPs, such as Maxmind.<\/p>\n<p>Remember:<\/p>\n<p>Not all IPs have a good performance, but you can always cut the ones that are damaging your overall results.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"regional-targeting-features\"><\/span><strong>Regional Targeting Features<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Remember basic targeting?<\/p>\n<p>When we explained what geographic targeting was all about?<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s right!<\/p>\n<p>Geo targeting allows you to select the country from which you want to receive traffic.<\/p>\n<p>Regional targeting is a more advanced feature.<\/p>\n<p>Here, you can select regions, going inside each specific country.<\/p>\n<p>This means you can target the state of Alabama directly, for example.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-26340 size-large\"

class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"retargeting\"><\/span><strong>Retargeting<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Retargeting is a form of targeted advertising, which is targeted at customers selected based on their previous online behavior.<\/p>\n<p>It allows you to include or exclude users who have already visited your website.<\/p>\n<p>This targeting option helps to make ads more personal and really create target advertising campaigns that get you some awesome conversions.<\/p>\n<p>Want an example of this type of ad network targeting?<\/p>\n<p>Imagine you\u2019ve been searching for pills to lose weight online.<\/p>\n<p>What\u2019s gonna happen, thanks to mobile performance marketing and its amazing ability to be everywhere?<\/p>\n<p>You\u2019ll start seeing some

specific set of potential users, who\u2019ll fall into a particular age range, gender, parental status, etc.<\/p>\n<p>Imagine you want to promote beauty kits for girls.<\/p>\n<p>This would be an example of targeting women on your campaign.<\/p>\n<p>Demographic targeting helps you narrow your audience.<\/p>\n<p>This means you need to set these settings for specific product

narrow target, you will lose money in the first days as the data come in. You\u2019ll then know where you should invest and what features to avoid.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">The normal behavior should be like in the next picture:<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-26346 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mobidea.com\/academy\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/image10.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"700\" height=\"571\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mobidea.com\/academy\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/image10.jpg 700w, https:\/\/www.mobidea.com\/academy\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/image10-250x204.jpg 250w, https:\/\/www.mobidea.com\/academy\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/image10-120x98.jpg 120w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">In the first moment you should invest in different features, devices, OS, etc. to get information about the user\u2019s behavior.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">You should then analyze the performances and adjust your investment to maximize your profit.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Now let\u2019s face the most common situations and learn what to do in each one .<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: left;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"situation-1-%e2%80%93-hello-money\"><\/span><strong>Situation 1 \u2013 Hello money!<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Almost everything in your campaign can give you profit.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Starting on the green, it\u2019s not a common situation, because nowadays mobile media buying has a huge global competition in all segments.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Here are still some details you should have in consideration:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"text-align: left;\">Check if you didn\u2019t choose a narrow target: It\u2019s always good to start making money since the first moment, but ignore traffic without testing it will just limit your future gains. Test everything first and then decide. Data is gold!<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: left;\">Calculate your eCPM to understand if you have margin to grow up even more. Climb to higher positions will increase your investment in good spots and also increase your margin. If you\u2019re getting good results, try to conquer all the spot for you. Increase bid (according to the eCPM), try to add new features, increase the capping, etc<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">The more volume, the better!.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: left;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"situation-2-%e2%80%93-run-away\"><\/span>Situation 2 \u2013 Run away!<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">According to the GEO and offers, you should be able to understand if a segment should work or not.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">If you launch a general campaign (all carriers, all OS, all devices) and you spend, for example, 5 or 6 times more the value of an average conversion you can take conclusions about the offer performance or the traffic quality source.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">If nothing converts, stop the campaign because there\u2019s nothing you can do.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Try to understand if a specific carrier, OS or device spent almost all the money and give an opportunity to test the other features.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">If the problem persists, stop and try another Geo (if the problem is in the offer performance) or try the same segment in another Ad Network (if you think you can find traffic with better quality).<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: left;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"situation-3-%e2%80%93-work-hard-play-hard\"><\/span><strong>Situation 3 \u2013 Work hard, play hard!<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">This is the most common situation.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Your campaign obtained data, but you see different performances, some features are very good, others are a complete disaster.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Don\u2019t panic and don\u2019t start to cut everything that is negative.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">It\u2019s time to manage your campaign and work properly according to the performances.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">You must understand when to do target changes. Your campaigns need time to collect data in order to provide safe stats.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">You must balance your results with the characteristics of the offer(s) and Geo.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">For example, if you have a campaign in Germany that spent \u20ac15 you can\u2019t reach a conclusion, because a single conversion can cost more than \u20ac20.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">In another way, if you spent the same budget in Thailand, where the average conversion pays just \u20ac0.70, you can analyze the performance and reach good conclusions with a smaller budget.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><strong>How can I make money from a non-profitable target?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">This is an important question.

performance is profitable and iOS isn\u2019t.<\/p>\n<p>Blackberry is the most profitable OS with an eCPM of \u20ac13.99 (however, low data is not reliable enough to reach fixed conclusions).<\/p>\n<p>To maximize our profits we should consider keeping all OS\u2019s (because all of them have volumes and conversions) but we should adjust the eCPM according to their performance.<\/p>\n<p>The crucial point here is to work properly with iOS and promote the best positions and efficiency for Android.<\/p>\n<p>We should duplicate the campaign and work only for iOS separately with an appropriate eCPM of \u20ac0.16.<\/p>\n<p>When we collect specific data for iOS volume, we can adjust other features like mobile devices, browsers, adjust banners, etc.<\/p>\n<p>In the main campaign, we will decrease our costs and maximize Android performance working with an eCPM of \u20ac0.29, then take the same conclusions for specific performance after we split the<\/p>\n<p>main campaign.<\/p>\n<p>Since Blackberry doesn\u2019t have a big volume of data, it can be in the main campaign with Android.<\/p>\n<p>This logic here can also be applied to all stats we have about other features, but specifically to Carriers, OS and Browsers.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Another situation:<\/strong> Carriers performance<\/p>\n<p>This is a common situation in different Ad Networks where you cannot target carriers, therefore you buy all types of traffic quality.<\/p>\n<p>Usually, Wi-Fi has almost all the traffic and a lower performance, but the 3G traffic has very good quality.<\/p>\n<p>You should balance if the 3G performance is enough to cover all the Wi-Fi performance and create a positive margin.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Total costs<\/strong> =

performance for both Wi-Fi and 3G traffic, but 3G shows an excellent quality and corresponding eCPM value.<\/p>\n<p>The most common scenario is a negative margin for Wi-Fi traffic and then a healthy 3G margin, which compensates the campaign\u2019s overall result.<\/p>\n<p>In these cases, we must balance the performance of both traffic sources to reach a positive global result.<\/p>\n<p>You should look to other features which you can manage, like banners and websites performance and target optimization, <strong>in order to have a profitable campaign<\/strong>, as shown in part 1 of this article.<\/p>\n<p>If you aren\u2019t able to change anything, and you must keep going with the selected targeting, or if the traffic quality it\u2019s not profitable you are forced to stop the campaign since there is no margin for optimization.<\/p>\n<p>From the situation above, you can see the importance of adjusting and working properly with data.<\/p>\n<p>Working with boosting lower performances can make a huge difference to your wallet and test your competitors\u2019 patience.<\/p>\n<p>Lose some time checking your campaigns and always stay focused on market variations.<\/p>\n<p>A new offer can provide good results in OS\/Devices\/Carriers that were erased before, so don\u2019t forget to re-test from time to time features that are no longer
