Hey there, fellow Facebook enthusiasts! We’ve got some thrilling news to share with you today that will make your time on this popular social media platform even more enjoyable. Facebook has just rolled out a fantastic new feature called “Engaged View,” and we couldn’t be more thrilled to tell you all about it!
What is Engaged View?
Engaged-View is a non-click conversion attribution that tracks conversions that take place after a viewer converts within 24 hours after watching a sizable section of a skippable video ad. It provides you with a new way to measure the performance of your video ads and, when used alongside click-through and view-through, helps you gain a better understanding of the actions someone takes before a conversion.
You can only apply Engaged-View to skippable video inventory, and campaigns not using video assets will not have access to Engaged-View reporting.
Why We Love Engaged-View
There are plenty of reasons why Engaged View has us all excited:
- More Immersive Experience: Engaged-View brings content to life in a way that makes you feel like you’re right there in the moment. It’s like having a personal, up-close encounter with the content you love.
- Time-Saving: No more opening new tabs or going back and forth to explore content. Engaged-View saves you time and makes your Facebook journey smoother.
- Easier Reading: Lengthy posts and articles are now more manageable with the scrollable pop-up window. Say goodbye to endless scrolling!
- Engagement Boost: For content creators, Engaged-View opens up new possibilities to captivate their audience. It allows them to showcase their work in a more interactive and captivating way.
- Discover New Interests: Engaged-View encourages exploration. You might find yourself discovering new interests by engaging with content more closely.
Using engaged-view metrics conversion of video ads
Engaged-View attribution occurs when a user sees at least 97% of a skippable video ad or plays it for ten seconds (if the video is less than ten seconds). Additionally, the person watching the video must convert to your advertising objective within 24 hours. This solution allows Meta to attribute the conversion to the video ad campaign.
For instance, let’s consider Maron’s experience: She comes across a video ad promoting an on-demand yoga class while browsing through Instagram Stories. Rather than skipping to the next story, she engages with the ad and plays it for more than ten seconds. The following day, after recalling the video, she decides to sign up for the on-demand yoga class.
In this instance, Maron’s conversion will be credited to the campaign as an Engaged-View conversion because she signed up for the yoga class the following day.
