Google Ads has introduced a new tCPA (target cost per action) insight box for Demand Gen campaigns. This feature follows the successful implementation of a similar tool for Performance Max and Standard Shopping campaigns.
Why it matters
This new tCPA Insight Box is a valuable addition for advertisers. It allows you to evaluate the performance of your advertising campaigns quickly. This tool lets you make informed decisions based on accurate data, helping you optimise your ad spending more effectively.
Key features
The tCPA Insight Box comes packed with useful features designed to enhance your campaign management:
- Actual CPA assessment: The tool shows if your actual CPA is within the expected range, giving you a clear indication of whether your campaigns are performing as anticipated.
- Weekly CPA averages: It displays weekly CPA averages alongside projected conversions, offering a comprehensive view of your campaign’s progress over time.
- Historical data analysis: The tool calculates typical variations based on historical campaign data, helping you understand the usual performance fluctuations.
- Target achievement indication: It indicates whether your target CPA is within the typical variation, ensuring your campaigns are on the right track.
- Cost per conversion management: The primary aim is to keep the overall cost per conversion equal to your set target CPA, ensuring efficient budget utilisation.
