The Story

Background

Our client is an online gaming platform offering free, no-registration access to more than 500 classic card games, including Solitaire, Spider Solitaire, and unique versions like Triple Klondike. Known for its innovative approach, the platform provides features like hints, undos, and leaderboards to enhance each game and make it more engaging for players. With over 20 million annual users, it’s become one of the most popular places for online solitaire, bringing fresh options and user-friendly features that set it apart in the world of classic games.

The Challenge

Our client depends on ad revenue, which means that getting the right kind of traffic is crucial for them. They had tried Google Ads but were unhappy with the high costs and found that mobile traffic often brought in less relevant users. They came to Galactic Fed looking for a way to lower their CPC and attract more engaged, valuable visitors to the platform.

Our Solution

Galactic Fed started by dividing the campaign into two key phases. In the first phase, they focused on remarketing active users and attracting new gamers by running 3 targeted campaigns on Google Ads: 1 Discovery, 1 Display, and 1 RLSA (Remarketing Lists for Search Ads) campaign. The Discovery and Display campaigns targeted new users, while the RLSA campaigns focused on remarketing to less active, valuable users.

In the second phase, the focus shifted to remarketing dormant users. After analyzing the insights from the first phase and considering the competitiveness of the online gaming industry, the team decided to increase the bidding cap. This adjustment enabled them to target a highly specific audience and win important auctions, driving over 11k remarketed and new users to the platform.

The strategy successfully brought in a high volume of quality traffic at a more optimized CPC, ultimately improving engagement metrics.
