Below you will find an overview of the Advantage products and at which level of campaign creation (campaign, ad group or ad level) which functions can be found.<\/p>\n

Advantage and Advantage+ in comparison<\/h2>\n

Basically, a distinction must be made between 2 groups:<\/strong><\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Advantage+<\/strong>(Advantage Plus): Automation functions throughout campaign creation, i.e. target groups, budget\/bids, destination, placements and ad design<\/li>\n
  2. Advantage:<\/strong>Automate “only” a specific part or function of a manual campaign<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Advantage+ Shopping campaigns<\/h5>\n

    With Advantage+ Shopping campaigns, Meta offers advertisers the opportunity to create campaigns more quickly and efficiently. By removing manual steps from campaign and creative creation and increasing automation, the aim is to enable better performance, personalization and greater efficiency.<\/p>\n

    In thisBlog post<\/a>The function will be discussed in more detail and where you will find out how an Advantage+ Shopping campaign is created, what functions it offers and what the advantages and disadvantages are.<\/p>\n

    Meta recently announced that it is launching the following two features for the Advantage+ Shopping campaign:<\/p>\n

      \n
    1. Setting the minimum age: Previously, the age of the target group was set as 18-65 by default, with no changes possible. With the new function, a minimum age of up to 25 years can be set.<\/li>\n
    2. Exclusion of specific locations: It will also be possible to add geographical exclusions. Federal states and\/or cities or postal codes can be excluded.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
      Advantage+ app campaigns<\/h5>\n

      Advantage+ app campaigns make app install campaigns even more effective with less effort. Unlike manual app ads, Advantage+ app campaigns require less advertiser input to create. This means, similar to the Advantage+ Shopping campaign, fewer settings are necessary. A big advantage of Advantage+ app campaigns is the ability to optimize specifically for app installs in just one campaign with app events. Additionally, Advantage+ app campaigns also support Advantage+ Catalog Ads, which automatically use images and details from the catalog.<\/p>\n

      Advantage+ placements<\/h5>\n

      Advantage+ placement can be activated with a checkbox. If the box is checked, you give the algorithm some control. This means that the platforms (Facebook, Instagram, Audience Network, Messenger) and the placements (feed, stories, reels, in-stream ads, etc.) where the ads are broadcast cannot be adjusted. The budget is automatically distributed to the more effective target group and the higher-performing placements. Meta itself recommends activating the function because with automatic placements the budget can be specifically distributed across a combination of placements and thus the best results are likely to be achieved. However, this feature must be chosen carefully as different formats need to be provided due to the different placements and the ads may appear in unwanted placements within Meta. Depending on the campaign goal, different placements are available. In a traffic campaign, for example, a total of 19 placements are activated by this function, as can be seen below.<\/p>\n

      The ad formats are grouped together depending on placements and can be edited as a group. This means that the recommended 1:1 format can be uploaded for all feed placements, 9:16 for stories and reels and 1.91:1 for the right column or search results.<\/p>\n

      Advantage+ Audience<\/h5>\n

      The Meta Advantage+ Audience is used to identify a target group for the campaign. This feature creates a comprehensive audience that allows Meta’s flexible AI to specifically search for potential prospects.<\/p>\n

      The Advantage Audience feature is partially activated automatically when creating a new campaign and if you want to switch to the original audience options, this must be selected.<\/p>\n

      Meta’s AI analyzes extensive information, including past conversions, pixel data and interactions with previous advertisements, to create a target group. This target group is continually being developed.<\/p>\n

      Suggestions can be entered, and Meta prioritizes target groups that match the suggestions before expanding the search.<\/p>\n

      Despite these automation options, age or location restrictions can be set.<\/p>\n

      Ad level<\/h3>\n

      Advantage+ ad creative<\/h5>\n

      This feature is available for ads with a single image or video. Advantage+ ad design automatically creates multiple variants of an ad with different text combinations and modified design, such as automatically adjusting the aspect ratio of the image or video and applying a template to the image.<\/p>\n

      Meta tries to show users a personalized version that is tailored to their interests and preferences. This optimization is available for ads targeting Traffic, Leads, Interactions, Revenue, and App Promotion.<\/p>\n

      The following optimization settings can be made:<\/p>\n
