77、e biggest YoY increase(22%).These results reflect each ad targeting types ability to convert a sale,likely due to factors such as customer intent and ad relevance.While close and loose match targeting experienced YoY RoAS declines,they are still among the top 3 ad targeting types for actual RoAS.The
78、se targeting types present products that are most similar to what the consumer is already searching for,making them more relevant and,therefore,more likely to result in a conversion.Views targeting can also be used to deliver highly relevant ads,as it allows advertisers to build and retarget custom
