Create an Audience Based on a Conversion Rule

You can create an audience based on a conversion rule, using one of two available options in the Yahoo Native UI.

Option 1: Use a shortcut to exclude converted users

When creating or editing a Yahoo Native campaign, you can exclude converted users by using this shortcut to create a custom audience based on a conversion rule, and add it to your excluded audiences list.

Follow these steps:

  1. At the bottom of the Campaign settings dialog, click the Exclude converted users item.

  1. In the popup panel that appears to the right, select the conversion rules on which you would like to exclude converted users and specify the effective time window by the number of days, which is up to 30.

The effective time window defines the number of days after converting a user that you wish that user to continue to be excluded from your targeting.

Once you’ve made your selection, click Create.
