Über das Skript "Erkennung von Kontounregelmäßigkeiten" erhalten Werbetreibende eine Warnung, wenn das Verhalten eines Google Ads-Kontos plötzlich stark vom bisherigen Verhalten abweicht. Wenn ein Problem auftritt, erhält der Werbetreibende eine Benachrichtigung per E-Mail. Es wird pro Tag nur eine einzige E-Mail gesendet.
Das Skript vergleicht die bisherigen Statistiken des Tages mit den Verlaufsdaten desselben Wochentags. So werden beispielsweise die Statistiken für Dienstag, 13:00 Uhr mit den Daten der 26 vorherigen Dienstage verglichen. Sie können die Anzahl der Wochen abhängig von Alter und Stabilität des Kontos anpassen.
Wird geplant
Planen Sie das Skript stündlich, um die Warnungen optimal zu nutzen. Wenn die Benachrichtigung zu laut ist, kann es auch sinnvoll sein, sie täglich um die Mittagszeit zu planen.
Funktionsweise
Angenommen, das Skript wird an einem Dienstag um 19:00 Uhr ausgeführt. Da die Aktualisierung der Statistiken in Google Ads bis zu 3 Stunden dauern kann, berücksichtigt das Skript nur Daten bis 16:00 Uhr.
Das Skript ruft dann die Statistiken der letzten 26 Dienstage ab, ermittelt einen Durchschnitt und vergleicht die Ergebnisse mit den Daten von heute.
An diesem Tag werden keine weiteren Benachrichtigungen desselben Typs mehr gesendet. Wenn Sie den Alarm zurücksetzen möchten, löschen Sie den Wert in der Zelle Alerting.
