  1. To create a Pause Contents rule simply go to Rules<\/strong> in the left-side panel of your screen and then select + New Rule<\/strong> then select Pause Contents<\/strong>.
    <\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. Enter a rule name<\/strong>. The rule name does not have to be unique, however we suggest adding a self-explanatory name for easier identification.
    <\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. Select an existing group or create a new one \u2013 Not mandatory.

    Using rule groups will help you keep your rules well-organized for later use.<\/em>
    <\/li>\n\n\n\n
  4. In the Considering data from<\/strong> select the statistics interval based on which rules will check if conditions are met to trigger the rule\u2019s action.

    This can be set to: Today<\/em>, Yesterday<\/em>, Last 3 Days<\/em>, Last 14 Days, Last 30 Days<\/em>, Last 60 Days<\/em> or Last 90 Days<\/em>.

    Additional explanation<\/em> – <\/strong>When selecting Today the rule will look only on current day performance and check if the triggering conditions are met or not. While when selecting Last 7 Days, the rule will look on the last 7 days\u2019 performance and check if the triggering conditions are met or not.
    <\/li>\n\n\n\n
  5. Specify one or more rule conditions<\/strong>.

    For each of the conditions included in a rule, you need to specify a threshold value that will trigger a rule action.

    When adding conditions to your rules you can use one of the four available comparison operators: Greater<\/em>, Less<\/em>, Greater or Equal<\/em> or Less or Equal<\/em>

    Important Note!<\/em> – <\/strong>Please note that multiple conditions within a rule are related to each other (this means that all conditions should be met for a rule action to be triggered).

    In case you would like to trigger rule actions on independent metrics (which one of the conditions is first met), please create a separate rule.

    Example: <\/strong>Pause Contents IF Traffic Source Impressions are More Than 20000 AND CTR is Less Than 0.2% AND Tracker Conversions are Less Than 1
    <\/li>\n\n\n\n
  6. In the Apply rule to these selected campaigns<\/strong> specify the campaigns on which you want this rule to run.
    <\/li>\n\n\n\n
  7. Run this rule every<\/strong> specifies the frequency based on which TheOptimizer will analyze statistics to check if conditions are met to trigger the action.
    <\/li>\n\n\n\n
  8. Default rule action Execute & Alert<\/strong>.

    Execute & Alert:<\/strong> When rule conditions are met, TheOptimizer will execute the desired action and send you an alert email including affected items.
    Execute:<\/strong> When conditions are met, TheOptimizer will only execute the desired rule action, but will not send email alert.
    Alert: <\/strong>When rule conditions are met, TheOptimizer will NOT execute an action, but will just send you an email alert including the detailed items for which rule conditions are met.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
