Configura los parámetros de segmentación

Usa el parámetro de configuración de la segmentación en tus grupos de anuncios o campañas para especificar si deseas restringir tus anuncios para que se muestren solo a segmentos de público específicos o en contenido específico que hayas seleccionado.

Configura el parámetro de configuración de la segmentación

Puedes configurar detalles sobre cómo se usan tus diversos tipos de criterios para la segmentación estableciendo el TargetingSetting campo con un array de target_restrictions (o aplicando actualizaciones incrementales con target_restriction_operations). Cada TargetRestriction te permite controlar si una TargetingDimension (AUDIENCE, TOPIC, GENDER, AGE_RANGE, PLACEMENT, PARENTAL_STATUS, o INCOME_RANGE) usa la bid_only opción o no.

Cuando se establece bid_only en true, el parámetro de configuración de la segmentación se establecerá en "Observación", y los criterios no se usarán para restringir el tráfico, pero te permitirán establecer ofertas diferentes para los distintos usuarios de tus listas. Si se establece bid_only en false, el parámetro de configuración de la segmentación se establecerá en "Segmentación" y habilitará los criterios para restringir el tráfico del grupo de anuncios solo a los usuarios de la lista segmentada.

Las principales diferencias se resumen en la siguiente tabla:

Configuración bid_only Efecto en el alcance Impacto en las ofertas
Segmentación false Reduce el alcance solo a los criterios seleccionados Puede establecer ofertas específicas en los criterios
Observación true No reduce el alcance; los anuncios se muestran con normalidad Permite ajustes de ofertas en los criterios

Situaciones prácticas

Estos son ejemplos breves de cuándo usar el modo Observación en comparación con el modo Segmentación:

Observación
Usa el modo Observación si publicas una campaña de Búsqueda y deseas saber qué tan bien convierte un público en particular (por ejemplo, "aficionados a los deportes") en comparación con el público en general, sin restringir tus anuncios solo a ese público. Puedes agregar "aficionados a los deportes" como un criterio de público con bid_only = true (Observación) y aplicar un ajuste de la oferta del 10%. Esto te permite recopilar datos de rendimiento para ese público y establecer ofertas más competitivas para ellos si tienen un buen rendimiento, sin perder tráfico de usuarios fuera de ese público.
Segmentación
Usa el modo Segmentación si publicas una campaña de Display para hacer remarketing a los usuarios que visitaron tu sitio web anteriormente, pero no realizaron una conversión, y solo deseas que los usuarios de tu lista de usuarios "Abandonos del carrito" vean estos anuncios específicos. En este caso, agregas la lista "Abandonos del carrito" como un criterio UserList con bid_only = false (Segmentación). Esto garantiza que el presupuesto de tu grupo de anuncios se invierta solo en llegar a este segmento de público con un alto nivel de intención.

Prácticas recomendadas

De forma predeterminada, bid_only se establece en false, lo que significa que el parámetro de configuración de la segmentación se establecerá en "Segmentación". Si se omite o no está presente una restricción de segmentación para una dimensión de segmentación específica (como AUDIENCE) en el array target_restrictions de un TargetingSetting, el sistema adopta el comportamiento predeterminado de "Segmentación" (bid_only es implícitamente false) para esa dimensión.

Este comportamiento de la API de bajo nivel puede diferir de la IU de Google Ads, que puede aplicar automáticamente "Observación" (bid_only es true) de forma predeterminada para algunas dimensiones de segmentación (como AUDIENCE para las campañas de Búsqueda) cuando se crean campañas o grupos de anuncios. Por ejemplo, las campañas de Shopping creadas a través de la IU pueden omitir la configuración de la dimensión AUDIENCE de forma predeterminada desde la perspectiva de la API, lo que significa que heredan implícitamente el comportamiento predeterminado de la API de "Segmentación" (bid_only es false).

Si agregas segmentos de público a una campaña de Búsqueda o Shopping, considera configurar explícitamente el parámetro de configuración de la segmentación de bid_only en true para establecerlo en "Observación".

Si configuras un duplicado de campaña para segmentos de público para anuncios de búsqueda, mantén la segmentación de bid_only establecida en false.

Restricciones

No puedes agregar ni actualizar targeting_setting en un AdGroup si targeting_setting está establecido en la campaña superior. Si targeting_setting está establecido en la Campaign superior, primero debes quitar targeting_setting en la Campaign superior. Del mismo modo, primero debes quitar targeting_setting en el AdGroup para establecerlo en la Campaign.

Para quitar un targeting_setting de un Campaign o un AdGroup, envía una operación update en la que se borre targeting_setting.target_restrictions (se establezca en una lista vacía) y se incluya targeting_setting.target_restrictions en la update_mask.

Recupera el parámetro de configuración de la segmentación

Para verificar que tu segmentación esté configurada como deseas, revisa el targeting_setting en los grupos de anuncios o las campañas solicitando el ad_group.targeting_setting.target_restrictions campo del recurso ad_group o el campaign.targeting_setting.target_restrictions campo del recurso campaign en una consulta de búsqueda.

Ejemplo

En este ejemplo, se actualiza el targeting_setting en un grupo de anuncios para que bid_only sea true para las instancias de TargetRestriction con una targeting_dimension de AUDIENCE, lo que te permite observar el rendimiento y establecer ajustes de la oferta para los usuarios del segmento de público sin restringir el alcance.

Primero, recupera todos los ad_group.targeting_setting.target_restrictions del grupo de anuncios con el ID proporcionado.

Java

String searchQuery =
    "SELECT ad_group.id, ad_group.name, ad_group.targeting_setting.target_restrictions "
        + "FROM ad_group "
        + "WHERE ad_group.id = "
        + adGroupId;

C#

string query = $@"
    SELECT ad_group.id, ad_group.name, ad_group.targeting_setting.target_restrictions
    FROM ad_group
    WHERE ad_group.id = {adGroupId}";

PHP

$query = "SELECT ad_group.id, ad_group.name, " .
    "ad_group.targeting_setting.target_restrictions " .
    "FROM ad_group " .
    "WHERE ad_group.id = $adGroupId";

Python

query: str = f"""
    SELECT
      ad_group.id,
      ad_group.name,
      ad_group.targeting_setting.target_restrictions
    FROM ad_group
    WHERE ad_group.id = {ad_group_id}"""

Ruby

query = <<~QUERY
  SELECT ad_group.id, ad_group.name,
         ad_group.targeting_setting.target_restrictions
  FROM ad_group
  WHERE ad_group.id = #{ad_group_id}
QUERY

Perl

my $query =
  "SELECT ad_group.id, ad_group.name, " .
  "ad_group.targeting_setting.target_restrictions FROM ad_group " .
  "WHERE ad_group.id = $ad_group_id";

curl

A continuación, itera las restricciones de segmentación y reconstruye los objetos TargetingSetting. Si el código encuentra un TargetRestriction con una targeting_dimension de AUDIENCE y un valor bid_only de false, actualiza el campo bid_only del objeto TargetRestriction a true (o "Observación") y lo agrega al objeto TargetingSetting. De lo contrario, agrega el objeto TargetRestriction que se muestra desde el servidor al TargetingSetting.

Java

for (TargetRestriction targetRestriction : targetRestrictions) {
  TargetingDimension targetingDimension = targetRestriction.getTargetingDimension();
  boolean bidOnly = targetRestriction.getBidOnly();

  if (!targetingDimension.equals(TargetingDimension.AUDIENCE)) {
    targetingSettingBuilder.addTargetRestrictions(targetRestriction);
  } else if (!bidOnly) {
    shouldUpdateTargetingSetting = true;
    // Adds an AUDIENCE target restriction with bid_only set to true to the targeting
