We are happy to announce our newest feature that will allow you to apply bulk bid and budget adjustments for an enhanced campaign optimization process.  In this article, we will discuss what this feature entails, how it can help you simplify your campaign management, and we will look at specific use cases with examples. The Problem If you have multiple campaigns, ad groups, ads, or publisher sites with varying bids and budgets, it’s very time-consuming to adjust all budgets or bids separately.  For example, if you wish to increase all bids by 20%, you first need to calculate how much 20% of all current bids is, and apply the changes one by one. Apart from taking up too much time, this way of managing bids and budgets is also more prone to mistakes, which eventually leads to avoidable budget waste. The Solution With TheOptimizer’s new feature, this entire process can be done in just a few clicks. You will be able to select as many campaigns, ads, ad sets, or publishers you need to adjust, and apply bid and budget increases/decreases, either by a fixed amount or by a percentage. All calculations will be done by our system, leaving no room for errors.  Let’s have a look at several use cases for our top ad networks to see how this new feature can help you optimize your campaigns in practice. Facebook Apply Bulk Campaign Budget Adjustments for Facebook Let’s say you are reviewing your Facebook data on TheOptimizer, and you notice a few campaigns have been performing exceptionally well recently.  With the new bulk actions, you can now select these top-performing campaigns and increase their budget at once.  For this use case, we want to apply a bulk budget increase of 15% for all selected Facebook campaigns. You have the option to adjust the budget by a certain percentage or set a fixed budget value. You can also optionally apply budget caps to ensure the new budget stays within a certain range.  Finally, you can preview the changes before applying them. With this preview, you can see the calculated value of the new budgets.  Apply Bulk Ad Set Bid and Budget Adjustments for Facebook If you are using ad set daily budgets instead, you can also replicate the same process as above on an ad set level.  TikTok Apply Bulk Campaign Budget Adjustments for TikTok You can also optimize your TikTok campaigns with TheOptimizer’s new bulk actions.  In the example below, we are applying a 15% budget increase on the campaign level and previewing the changes before approving the new budgets. Apply Bulk Ad Group Bid and Budget Adjustments for TikTok Similarly, you can apply bulk bid and budget changes to selected TikTok ad groups. You can increase or decrease bids and budgets using a percentage calculation or set them to a fixed value.  Taboola Apply Bulk Campaign Bid and Budget Adjustments for Taboola If you are advertising on native platforms such as Taboola or Outbrain, you can also apply bulk budget and bid changes on a campaign level.  For the use case below, we have selected several Taboola campaigns we wish to test with a lower budget. We are applying a global 10% budget decrease. Apply Bulk Site Bid Adjustments for Taboola A big part of being successful with native advertising is being able to effectively manage publisher sites.  If you have identified a few publisher sites with good performance, you can bulk increase the site bid to scale faster. In this specific use case for Taboola, we are increasing the bid by 15%, but ensuring that it does not go higher than 80% of our reported EPC (earning per click). Outbrain Apply Bulk Campaign Bid and Budget Adjustments for Outbrain You can also optimize your Outbrain campaigns by using TheOptimizer’s bulk actions on a campaign level. You can adjust campaign bids and budgets, as well as change target CPAs in one go.   Apply Bulk Section Bid Adjustments for Outbrain When advertising on Outbrain, you also need to optimize on a section level. Due to the large number of sections, this task can become very tedious when done directly on the platform.  With the bulk section bid adjustment, you can make global changes and preview the results before applying them. In this case, we are increasing the section bid by 15%, but ensuring the new bid does not go higher than the earning per click value. Apply Bulk Bid and Budget Adjustments with TheOptimizer: Conclusion Effectively managing bids and budgets for all campaign levels plays a critical part in your success as an advertiser. Between managing multiple ad networks, and campaigns, and trying to allocate your budget correctly, it can become time-consuming to manage everything separately.  TheOptimizer’s bulk bid and budget manager is a game-changer, and it’s currently not available on any traffic source. You can stay ahead of the competition by simplifying your bid & budget management for better results, and save an immense amount of time and money doing so.

If you are reading this post, you probably already know how important it is to use a campaign automation tool in 2023. With so many choices out there, it’s crucial to understand what each tool offers, so you can choose the best option to help scale your business.  In this article, we will take a deep dive into the comparison between The Optimizer and Revealbot, highlighting the key differences and similarities between these two campaign automation tools. The Optimizer vs Revealbot: Traffic Source Integrations While both The Optimizer and Revealbot have the same core functionality, there is a difference in the traffic sources they support.  The Optimizer is primarily used by marketers who are active on social and native advertising platforms. In total, The Optimizer has a direct integration with 14 advertising platforms, while Revealbot has integrations with four.  Below you can see the top six advertising platforms supported by The Optimizer. Apart from the native sources covered here, The Optimizer supports a variety of other premium platforms including MGID, MediaGo, and more. On the other hand, Revealbot only supports the social media platforms highlighted below.  If you are advertising only on social media platforms, both tools can help you and we recommend reading further to compare their other features. However, if you are running native ads or planning on testing them out in the near future, The Optimizer is a better fit for you.  The Optimizer vs Revealbot: Trackers & Search Feed Integrations Online marketers often use third-party trackers for higher data accuracy. If you are using a tracker, you will most likely want to connect it to your campaign automation tool. That way, you will be able to use the data from both your advertising platform and tracker when setting up your automation rules.  The Optimizer has a direct integration with 13 trackers, while Revealbot has integrations with four. Both platforms can pull data from Google Analytics, but The Optimizer supports a larger number of trackers, including top affiliate trackers such as ClickFlare, Voluum, RedTrack, AssertiveYield, and more.  If you are running search arbitrage campaigns without using a tracker, The Optimizer also has an integration with five of the top search feeds. This means that the platform will pull the revenue data directly from the search feed via API.  In case your tracker of choice is not supported by the two platforms, don’t worry! Both The Optimizer and Revealbot allow users to upload their data using CSV or Google Sheets reports.  The Optimizer and Revealbot are constantly working on new integrations, so before making a decision, always make sure to check whether your ad platforms, trackers, or search feeds are supported by these platforms. In general, The Optimizer integrates with 20 more platforms than Revealbot, giving you a wider range of options. The Optimizer vs Revealbot: Campaign Management  Since both The Optimizer and Revealbot are primarily campaign management tools, let’s zoom in on this feature for a bit.  The Optimizer makes campaign management easier than ever with a comprehensive dashboard that displays key performance metrics, such as cost & revenue from all your campaigns and connected ad or tracker accounts. This is extremely important for agencies or performance marketers who advertise on different platforms, using multiple ad accounts, and launching a large number of campaigns. Instead of logging into each of your accounts separately, you can now manage all your campaigns from a single dashboard. This is something that Revealbot does not offer at the moment.  The Optimizer takes it a step further by allowing you to view detailed performance metrics from both your traffic sources (e.g., Facebook and TikTok) and your tracker in a single report. For example, in the aggregated report above you can see the traffic source (in this case Facebook) clicks, and tracker conversions side-by-side. You can also make manual changes to your campaigns directly from this dashboard.  When it comes to campaign management, The Optimizer offers more advanced features and really focuses on saving you time by aggregating data from all your accounts in a single place. The Optimizer vs Revealbot: Automation The automation functionality is pretty similar for both platforms. They both have an intuitive rule builder that allows you to automate campaign optimization tasks using conditions. For example, if you want to set a rule that will automatically pause your Facebook ads with high CPC, here is how it would look like on The Optimizer: Similarly, this is how the same rule would look like on Revealbot:  Both platforms allow you to schedule rules at constant intervals (e.g., every 30 minutes), or at specific times of the day (e.g., each day at 6 AM account timezone). They also both allow you to use custom metrics in your rules, select campaigns you want the rule to apply to, and have the option to be notified each time the rule is executed.  Both The Optimizer and Revealbot also offer rule templates you can use as inspiration, but we recommend being careful with these templates. What works for one business may not work for the other, so always evaluate these templates against your own metrics, goals, and priorities. The Optimizer vs Revealbot: Reporting Both platforms have a “Reporting” feature so that you can generate reports about your campaigns automatically.  This feature is pretty straightforward and user-friendly on both platforms, but similarly to what we mentioned above, The Optimizer has the benefit of combining the data from your traffic sources and third-party tracker accounts in a single report.  The Optimizer vs Revealbot: Conclusion Choosing the right campaign automation tool for your business can play a crucial role in how fast you can scale profitably.  While both The Optimizer and Revealbot have an excellent automation engine, The Optimizer supports more traffic sources, trackers, and search feeds, as well as a more advanced campaign management dashboard that will make your life easier as an advertiser.
