Frequency Cap FAQs
What is frequency capping?
A frequency cap limits how often an ad is shown to a subscriber. This prevents ads from becoming stale or annoying by showing them too often.
Why is frequency capping important?
A frequency cap makes ads more interesting and relevant by limiting how often they are shown. It also saves money and improves campaigns by showing the right ads to the right audience. In short, it's a risk-free way tool to help you reach the right target audience and conserve your ad budget.
What’s the ideal frequency cap?
No set frequency cap works for everyone. It depends on your brand's audience and unique advertising campaigns.
The best way to determine the optimal frequency cap for your brand is to start testing and pay close attention to where audience interactions drop off. Consider limiting the number of times an ad is shown per day, per week, etc.
What are some tips for frequency capping?
Timing is very important to determine the frequency limit, including paying close attention to the ad's visibility.
