FAQ

Häufige Fragen

How often should pacing be checked?

Daily for active spend, or at least weekly for smaller campaigns.

Can a campaign be perfectly paced and still bad?

Yes. Pacing only tells you whether delivery matches the plan, not whether the plan is good.

Is pacing important for small budgets?

Yes, because small budgets can still be blown on the wrong audience or creative quickly.
