How to Configure Ads Day Parting

Updated 

Dayparting is primarily driven by legal regulations where brands in certain business categories aren’t allowed to run ads during certain days and hours. For example, Liquor brands can’t run ads during the night in the UK.

Strategy Group allows you to schedule your ads for different days of the week and times of the day and apply Ads Dayparting to multiple campaigns in bulk. In this article, we will walk you through how to configure Ads Dayparting in Strategy Groups.

2. Check the box alongside Ads Dayparting and click the Ads Dayparting option from the left pane to configure it manually.

Note:

  • Ads Dayparting is not supported for Google.
