Ad Suggestions

Add Missing Ads (RSA)

This optimization helps you find such ad groups without any active RSAs. You'll see the Ad creation window, where you'll be able to write assets for your new RSA from scratch, or you can use Top Suggestion, coming from high-performing ad components from existing ETAs and RSAs in the same ad group, and also access a wider range of suggestions from the Open AI.

You can also choose to add suggestions from the top-performing search queries and keywords.

Fix Ads with Issues (RSA)

This optimization will show you those RSAs with Poor Ad strength and contain only a few headlines and description assets. The idea is to help fix them so that they perform better. Once you click "Edit Ad", you'll see the Ad editing window, where you can edit the RSA assets with the provided ideas in the form of Top Existing Suggestions, Open AI suggestions, Top Keywords, and Search Queries.

Pause Low Performing RSAs

See suggestions for RSAs in an ad group that is not performing well compared to other RSAs in the same ad group. This will allow you to pause the losing RSA and that will ensure the winning RSA gets more traffic. This proactive way of managing your RSAs can improve the overall effectiveness of your ad group.

Pause Low Performing Ads

See suggestions for ETAs or Dynamic Ads in an ad group that is not performing well compared to other ads in the same ad group. This will allow you to pause the losing ads and that will ensure the winning ones get more traffic. You can use the AB Testing tool to customize settings and test more ads.

Audience Suggestions

PMax Asset Groups with no Audience Signal

PMax campaigns use audience signals as the starting point to reach the right audience, so adding them to asset groups helps users give direction to the targeting.

This optimization finds the PMax asset groups without any audience signal and lets you add an existing audience signal from the account or help create a new one. While creating a new audience signal, we provide 2 options to use custom segments - you can choose to add people with any of the interests or purchase intentions already defined in Google Ads from the drop-down or choose to add top-performing search queries at the account level or add any other search queries manually.

Automated Bidding Suggestions

Create an Experiment to test Maximize Conversions Bidding Strategy

This optimization suggests creating an experiment for a campaign to run on an automated bidding strategy - Maximize Conversions. The campaign in consideration is currently running on manual bidding (manual CPC), and the optimization recommends testing smart bidding strategies like Maximize Conversions using time-limited experiments. This will allow you to measure the performance of the new strategy against the current manual bidding strategy and help you understand if the new strategy is performing better or not.

Create an Experiment to test Target CPA bidding

This optimization suggests creating an experiment for a campaign to run on an automated bidding strategy - Maximize Conversions with Target CPA. The campaign in consideration is currently running on manual bidding, and the optimization recommends testing smart bidding strategies like Target CPA using time-limited experiments. This will allow you to measure the performance of the new strategy against the current manual bidding strategy and help you understand if the new strategy is performing better or not.

Create an Experiment to test Target ROAS bidding

This optimization suggests creating an experiment for a campaign to run on an automated bidding strategy - Maximize Conversion Value with Target ROAS. The campaign in consideration is currently running on manual bidding, and the optimization recommends testing smart bidding strategies like Target ROAS using time-limited experiments.

Increase Impression Share - Converting Target CPA Ad Group

This optimization finds the converting ad groups that are losing out on impression share due to low Ad Rank. As increasing Target CPA helps Google Ads bid higher in auctions and thus capture more impression share, this optimization helps you modify the current Target CPA of such ad groups. The idea is to help increase the reach of your converting ads to more audiences.

Increase Impression Share - Converting Target ROAS Ad Group

More Traffic for Converting Keywords

By default, the system will display the current bid and the suggested bid.

Budget Suggestions

Budget Suggestions from Google

Google recommends increasing budgets so they can show your ads to more people. We analyze these suggestions and calculate the predicted changes in cost, conversions, and cost/conv. to help you make a decision. You can read more about Google Recommendations in Optmyzr Express here.

This optimization gives you a curated list of such conflicting negative keywords (along with the corresponding positive keyword). You get the option to either pause the positive keyword or remove the negative keyword.

Keyword Suggestions by Google

Use Broad Match Keywords

Other Suggestions

Add Missing Sitelink Assets

Microsoft-only Suggestions

Opt-out of Auto-apply recommendations

This optimization feature is designed to identify the auto-apply recommendations that are currently enabled in your Microsoft Ads account and offers you the option to disable them.

Auto-apply recommendations can automatically make changes to your accounts once the review period expires. If there are specific recommendations for which you prefer more control, you can choose to disable auto-apply. By doing so, these recommendations won't be automatically applied, but they will still be generated. You can manually review and apply them to your Microsoft Ads account as needed. Read more about auto-apply recommendations here.

Microsoft ads give you a period of 7 days to review the recommendations. If no action is taken within this time frame, the recommendations are automatically applied. The following recommendations will be shown in the Express Optimization if enabled:

1. Fix your conversion goal setting

2. Create a Conversion goal

3. Remove negative keyword conflicts

4. Add multimedia ads

5. Add responsive search ads

However, the recommendation to "Fix the missing keyword parameters issue" is not available through the Microsoft Ads API. Therefore, its status cannot be highlighted in the Express Optimization, and you'll need to address this recommendation directly within your Microsoft Ads account. The steps to do so are highlighted below.

Disable the 'Fix Missing Keyword Parameter Issue' auto-apply recommendation

  1. Login to your Microsoft Ads Account on ads.microsoft.com.

  2. Go to the Recommendations tab listed on the left menu.

  3. Click on the 'Lightning' icon present on the top right to open and configure the 'Auto-apply Recommendation settings'

  4. Uncheck the 'Fix missing keyword parameters issue' option present under the 'Repairs' section and save the settings.
