How we decide
We look at one number: what one order costs.
- GoodR250 or less for one order.
- A bit highR250 to R350.
- Too highMore than R350.
- Spend moreOrders are cheap and the ad uses all its money. Add a little: 20% (10% if we are not sure). Every 2 to 3 days.
- Leave it aloneWe just made a change, or the ad is too new. Wait and watch.
- Spend lessWe gave it more money, but the extra orders cost too much. Go back to the old amount.
- Put the money backSomeone cut the money, but the ad was doing well.
- Switch it offIt spent R750 and orders still cost too much, or there are no orders.
- Enough to judgeWe need 10 orders in 14 days before we give an ad more money. We only judge an ad after it has spent R500. We only switch it off after R750.
- Too new to judgeUnder R500 spent. Let it run.
- One order cost, 14 daysThe main number. It shows if the ad is good.
- 7 days and since last changeThe newest days. They show if the last money change worked.
- Of the extra moneyWhat the added money bought. Over R350 means spend less. The ad itself can still be good.
- Times each person saw it2 or more means people see it a lot. Get a new ad ready.
- Clicks per 100 viewsIf the last 3 days are clearly lower than 14 days, people are getting bored of it.
- Tired adAll three at once: people saw it a lot, fewer click, and orders cost more. Make a new ad.
- Healthy ad, too much moneyPeople still click and are not tired, but the extra money costs too much. Spend less. Never switch it off.
- Who changes the money?A person. This page only says what to do.
