When you set the budget for your campaign, you can choose how you would like Ads Manager to optimize your ad delivery. You should choose one key action.
The objective you pick at the campaign level will determine which optimization events you can choose from. Your optimization choice will help determine who we show your ads to.
- Optimize for link clicks – We’ll show your ads primarily to people who are likely to click on them.
- Optimize for impressions – We’ll show your ads as often as possible.
- Optimize for audience reach – We’ll deliver your ads in a way that helps you reach as wide of an audience as possible.
Note: These are only a few of the optimization options you can choose from.
