Ad Version
Wat is een Ad Version?
Before launching an ad campaign it’s really important to test it. The testing process often works best with multiple versions of the same ad. These versions can vary from each other in many ways including style, words, promotions, and benefits. We can test these versions against each other to find the ones that perform best.

The Benefits of Having Multiple Ad Versions
Having multiple ad versions and running A/B tests on them means a lot of benefits for you and your brand. First, every time you make multiple versions, run tests on them, and then use those findings to make future content, you are taking into account what the audience wants from your brand. When you give the audience what they want, they are more willing to engage and interact with your client.
Secondly, having multiple ad versions will show you which ads work the best. This should help to improve key ranking factors such as page time and bounce rate. This will also allow you to focus your efforts on the ads with the best conversion rates.
