Test Setup:

To evaluate the effectiveness of the S2S integration with Meta, an A/B test will be conducted to compare two optimization strategies: using your existing Pixel versus the Admetrics Pixel.

  1. Enable the S2S Feature:

    • Go to your integration settings and enable the S2S feature.

      • Sometimes we don’t receive permission to create the pixel automatically, so you’ll need to create it manually by following this page.

    • Allow a few days for the Admetrics Pixel to train before proceeding.

    • Please share the Admetrics Pixel with our Business ID (802747313438444) so we can confirm the event quality.

  2. Duplicate a Well-Performing Ad Set:

    • Choose an ad set that has shown strong performance based on metrics like conversion rates, engagement, or ROAS.

    • Duplicate the ad set twice to create two identical, untrained ad sets. Ensure both are completely the same in terms of targeting, creative elements, and budget.

  3. Set Up an A/B Test:

    • In Ads Manager, configure an A/B test to ensure no visitor sees both versions, preventing skewed results.

    • Optimize one ad set for purchase events using your current Pixel.

    • Optimize the other ad set for purchase events using the Admetrics Pixel.

  4. Manage Ad Spend:

    • Ensure that each ad set’s budget is high enough to generate 3-4 orders per day (more is better for faster, clearer results).

    • Typically, you should see a trend after about 7 days, but it’s advisable to let the test run longer to achieve statistically significant and reliable results.

  5. Evaluate Results:

    • Within the first two weeks, you should have sufficient data to evaluate the performance of both pixels and determine the impact of the S2S integration.
