How do I set up advanced rules for Audience Optimization?
Advanced Rules allow you to set up almost infinitely flexible rules to determine how your conversions are sent back to your ad network based on Conversion Type, UTM Values, and even Sales Amounts.
These are completely optional, but allow you to do things like not sending sales that are under a certain minimum amount, or sending conversions from specific ad campaigns to specific pixels for example.
And if you don’t want to tell your ad network about certain conversions at all for some reason, based on specific UTM values for example, you can even send these conversions to a specific pixel that you simply don’t use.
In Campaigns, click on the Tools menu, click on Audience Optimization, then click on the Google Ads tab.
Click the “Advanced Rules” button.
Click “Add Rule” to add a new rule.
Fill in the name and choose the Conversion Action you want to use for this rule.
Fill in the criteria that you want the rule to match. The example below would match any sale greater than $100 ...
If a conversion doesn’t match the advanced rule you have set, it will use the default rule you initially set up.
Creating Multiple Advanced Rules
First, you need to create the rules you want to use and the Conversion Action you want to relate to the rule.
Then, prioritize the rules with your most important rule at the top.
In the following example, if an $80 sale came in (based on the cmc_amt value), the first rule would not be used because it is for sales over $100. The second rule would be used because the sale was under $100:
If a conversion doesn’t match the advanced rules listed, it will use the default rule.
Note: You can only use one conversion action from Google Ads for each type. If you have a conversion action set to sale, you cannot use the same action for Action or Engagements.
To reorder a rule, click and hold the left mouse button over the cross button and drag the rule up or down.
To remove a rule, click the delete button .
