As FLoC testing is officially underway, we’ve compiled everything that we know about FLoC: what it is, how it’s different, and what advertisers can do to prepare. With FLoC, instead of individual cookies being aggregated at the individual level and passed from sites to platforms, browsing data would live within each individual browser. FLoC would then assign individual browsers to larger groups (or cohorts) of thousands of users based upon that browsing data. This guide is a one-stop-shop for everything that you need to know about FLoC, including:

  • How Is This Different Than the Previous Process?
  • Why Is FLoC Getting a Bad Rap?
  • Cohort Eligibility – Who Can Be Tracked?
  • Public Release of FloC
  • How Can Advertisers Prepare?
  • First-Party Data Usage
  • Conversion Tracking In a Third-Party-Cookieless World

Read the article here.

Performance Max is an automated campaign type, reminiscent of (but still slightly different than) a Smart campaign.

  • What Options and Controls Do I have With Performance Max?
  • What Do Performance Max Reports Include?
  • How Does Performance Max Perform?
