Good single variables are the hook (first three seconds or opening image), the headline, the format (static against video), or the call to action. Then choose the one result metric that matches the campaign goal, such as cost per purchase, cost per lead or cost per install. Clicks alone are rarely the right judge, because a cheap click can still be a poor customer.\u003C/p>\u003Ch2>Step 2: Choose how to run the test\u003C/h2>\u003Cdiv class=\"lexical-table-container\">\n        \u003Ctable class=\"lexical-table\" style=\"border-collapse: collapse;\">\n          \u003Ctbody>\u003Ctr class=\"lexical-table-row\">\n        \u003Cth\n        class=\"lexical-table-cell lexical-table-cell-header-1\"\n        \n        \n        style=\"border: 1px solid #ccc; padding: 8px;\"\n      >\n        \u003Cp> Method \u003C/p>\n      \u003C/th>\n    \u003Cth\n        class=\"lexical-table-cell lexical-table-cell-header-1\"\n        \n        \n        style=\"border: 1px solid #ccc; padding: 8px;\"\n      >\n        \u003Cp> Best for \u003C/p>\n      \u003C/th>\n    \u003Cth\n        class=\"lexical-table-cell lexical-table-cell-header-1\"\n        \n        \n        style=\"border: 1px solid #ccc; padding: 8px;\"\n      >\n        \u003Cp> Trade-off \u003C/p>\n      \u003C/th>\n    \n      \u003C/tr>\u003Ctr class=\"lexical-table-row\">\n        \u003Ctd\n        class=\"lexical-table-cell lexical-table-cell-header-0\"\n        \n        \n        style=\"border: 1px solid #ccc; padding: 8px;\"\n      >\n        \u003Cp> Meta Experiments (A/B test) \u003C/p>\n      \u003C/td>\n    \u003Ctd\n        class=\"lexical-table-cell lexical-table-cell-header-0\"\n        \n        \n        style=\"border: 1px solid #ccc; padding: 8px;\"\n      >\n        \u003Cp> A controlled comparison of two to five variations \u003C/p>\n      \u003C/td>\n    \u003Ctd\n        class=\"lexical-table-cell lexical-table-cell-header-0\"\n        \n        \n        style=\"border: 1px solid #ccc; padding: 8px;\"\n      >\n        \u003Cp> Cleanest result; needs a planned budget and time \u003C/p>\n      \u003C/td>\n    \n      \u003C/tr>\u003Ctr class=\"lexical-table-row\">\n        \u003Ctd\n        class=\"lexical-table-cell lexical-table-cell-header-0\"\n        \n        \n        style=\"border: 1px solid #ccc; padding: 8px;\"\n      >\n        \u003Cp> Creative Testing in Ads Manager \u003C/p>\n      \u003C/td>\n    \u003Ctd\n        class=\"lexical-table-cell lexical-table-cell-header-0\"\n        \n        \n        style=\"border: 1px solid #ccc; padding: 8px;\"\n      >\n        \u003Cp> Comparing individual ads inside a campaign \u003C/p>\n      \u003C/td>\n    \u003Ctd\n        class=\"lexical-table-cell lexical-table-cell-header-0\"\n        \n        \n        style=\"border: 1px solid #ccc; padding: 8px;\"\n      >\n        \u003Cp> Has setup requirements, such as the bid strategy, so check current rules in the Meta Business Help Center \u003C/p>\n      \u003C/td>\n    \n      \u003C/tr>\u003Ctr class=\"lexical-table-row\">\n        \u003Ctd\n        class=\"lexical-table-cell lexical-table-cell-header-0\"\n        \n        \n        style=\"border: 1px solid #ccc; padding: 8px;\"\n      >\n        \u003Cp> Several ads in one ad set \u003C/p>\n      \u003C/td>\n    \u003Ctd\n        class=\"lexical-table-cell lexical-table-cell-header-0\"\n        \n        \n        style=\"border: 1px solid #ccc; padding: 8px;\"\n      >\n        \u003Cp> Quick exploration of ideas \u003C/p>\n      \u003C/td>\n    \u003Ctd\n        class=\"lexical-table-cell lexical-table-cell-header-0\"\n        \n        \n        style=\"border: 1px solid #ccc; padding: 8px;\"\n      >\n        \u003Cp> Delivery favors early leaders, so it is not proof \u003C/p>\n      \u003C/td>\n    \n      \u003C/tr>\u003Ctr class=\"lexical-table-row\">\n        \u003Ctd\n        class=\"lexical-table-cell lexical-table-cell-header-0\"\n        \n        \n        style=\"border: 1px solid #ccc; padding: 8px;\"\n      >\n        \u003Cp> Dynamic or Advantage+ creative \u003C/p>\n      \u003C/td>\n    \u003Ctd\n        class=\"lexical-table-cell lexical-table-cell-header-0\"\n        \n        \n        style=\"border: 1px solid #ccc; padding: 8px;\"\n      >\n        \u003Cp> Letting the system mix assets \u003C/p>\n      \u003C/td>\n    \u003Ctd\n        class=\"lexical-table-cell lexical-table-cell-header-0\"\n        \n        \n        style=\"border: 1px solid #ccc; padding: 8px;\"\n      >\n        \u003Cp> Useful for finding combinations, weak for learning why something won \u003C/p>\n      \u003C/td>\n    \n      \u003C/tr>\u003C/tbody>\n        \u003C/table>\n      \u003C/div>\u003Cp>Feature names and eligibility change, so confirm the current requirements in Ads Manager before you plan around them.\u003C/p>\u003Ch2>Step 3: Keep everything else identical\u003C/h2>\u003Cp>Use the same audience, placement, budget, schedule and landing page for every variant.
