How to place an ad on Bol?

In order to be successful with Bol Sponsored Products, you need to determine which search terms you want to be found on and where your sponsored products show. Keywords can be set both manually and automatically through Bol.com. You can find relevant search trends in the sales analysis tool within your sales account. This works as follows:

    • Go to the 'advertise' option in your sales account.

    • Here you have the option to increase your limit. Set your desired amount. After you've done this, you'll get a confirmation from Bol.com. Then click on the button 'Manage your sponsored products' 

    • You will be redirected to the back office page where you can create ads. To do this, go to 'campaigns' and click '+ new campaign'

    • Next, you determine the duration, budget and bidding strategy. You can manually set the cost per click (CPC) on your Sponsored Products. If you prefer automatic bidding, set the ACoS, which stands for Advertising Cost of Sales. These are your advertising costs divided by the revenue. ACoS is the percentage of your sales that you want to spend on Sponsored Products. 

    • Your list of products has been put into the advertising account and can be dragged to the left or right to be showcased. Lastly, you can add the most relevant keywords based on the products you want to highlight. Additional keywords can be added manually. Once everything is set up, you can put your Sponsored Products campaign online.

Advertising through Mabaya

Since the start of 2021, Bol.com switched from the advertising platform 'Criteo' to Mabaya. This new platform gives advertisers more insights into keywords and more options to analyze and improve their campaigns.

With manual targeting, you decide on what keywords lead to consumers finding your products. In addition, Mabaya's dashboard offers more possibilities to adjust your campaigns. Compared to Criteo, Mabaya has many advantages:

    • You only pay when someone clicks on your ad. 

    • Ability to set a maximum CPC (Cost per click). This way, you never spend more than you want on an ad and get to make sure it fits your margin.

    • Easily adjust your ad budget to increase your ROI (return on investment).

    • Set up manual campaigns for high-performing products, connected to matching keywords.

    • Add negative keywords to ensure that Bol.com visitors do not click your ad after an irrelevant search.
