What the heck is happening in this new Demand Gen campaign?! When I looked at the placement reporting for my client's Demand Gen campaign, I was very confused. But I think I finally figured out what's happening. Can you figure it out, too? Looked at where ads showed in the campaign. "Total: Other" drove 15K+ impressions at 0% CTR. Say what now?! Have I unwittingly uncovered the Demand Gen equivalent of "Other search terms"?! ?? Can you figure out what my small business owner client spend $77 on for 15K impressions? Something good or something garbage? Here's everything I checked before I figured it out. Yes, Video partners are turned off. These mystery impressions came from: - Device: mobile - Ad: Single image ad (not the Video ad) - Placement Type: no Mobile app, no Google products. Only 100s of YouTube channels and the site youtube . com What would you look at next? What do you think happened here? I'll share my theory tomorrow...
Seems our picks of audiences in Demand Gen turned into signals lately. Check the naming on the targeting. It’s like you turned on audience expansion… basically.
Jyll Saskin Gales I’ve dove in with my reps on this previously and the response is a combo of there were too little impressions or privacy issues. And sadly there is no way to exclude this inventory. We’re currently looking into third party partners who can help scrutinize placements we don’t’ have transparency on in cases like this for both video and audio.
I am intrigued!
AI overviews maybe?
My theory is that these are infeed placements that can′t be matched to a certain channel or video. I have seen this in other accounts before and I am really eager to find out what it is
I am intrigued! Waiting for big reveal tomorrow.
Commenting to see the follow up! We see this for clients as well, even when running on tight inclusion lists. Seems like Google has some leaks that it can't plug no matter what
Loving these theories and Ideas, my best guess would be that ad is being served on less relevant you tube channels or other google products that have lower engagement. Also random thought could it audience fatigue from being over served maybe check frequency capping. Either way I am excited for the big reveal tomorrow ??
I might be misunderstanding, but would the other just be ad placements within the Discovery Feed?
