Your optimization score helps you prioritize recommended actions for your campaigns so you can achieve your business goals faster and free up more time in your day. Optimization score ranges from 0% - 100%, with 100% meaning your account can perform at its full potential. You can achieve an optimization score of 100% by applying or dismissing the recommendations in your account.
You can find your optimization score on the Recommendations page, shown here.
The Recommendations page highlights relevant features that can increase the overall performance of your campaigns. We’re adding new recommendations to optimization score to include:
- Target ROAS and Target Impression Share Smart Bidding suggestions to help you reach your goals by bidding more efficiently.
- Bid adjustment recommendations for Affinity audiences, demographics, and In-market audiences.
