You can also create an "Account-based Segment." This is typically a group of IP Addresses that define a target company.

78 -**Content**: Users are selected based on the meta keywords contained on the pages a user visits. The sub-category for Content is Viewed or Clicked. Target is the content keyword.
78 +This will open the Profile window, which is Step 1 in creating the persona.
79 79  
80 -**Email**: Users are selected based on the emails (from your ONEcount-integrated ESP or ONEmail) that the user has engaged with. The sub-category for Email is Opened or Clicked. Target is the name or subject of the e-mail campaign.

86 +==== Step 1 – Profile ====
85 85  
86 -**Package Status**: Users are selected based on the status of a package they have purchased or subscribed to. Best when used with a Package Transaction criteria. The sub-categories for Package Status are any of the package Statuses that you've defined in the Package Status section under the Inventory menu in ONEcount. There are no targets for this option.

94 +A "Segment" is a subgroup of your user universe that you wish to target with a specific action.
93 93

107 -This functionality can be used, among other things, to define a set of IP addresses of invalid/non-human traffic that you don't want to display paid banner ads to. By defining the target IP addresses and setting the action to serve only house ads, those IP addresses won't be counted as impressions/views/clicks for sponsored banner advertising because they won't be served sponsored ads. Or you could redirect to a page or a pop-up with a message that the IP address is suspected of being non-human traffic and a number to call if not the case. That IP could then be removed from the target segment.
115 +The screenshot above is from v. 11.6. Prior versions do not have the "With"/"Without" option.

118 118  
119 -From the Segment Manager menu, select Action Manager. This is where you define the action to be taken for a segment, e.g. a website pop-up or ad targeting. Types of available Actions include: Pop-Up, Redirect, Ad Target, Transactional Email

160 +"Action" is where you define the action to be taken for the identified segment, e.g. a website pop-up or ad targeting.
140 140  
141 -On the next screen, from the Action pull-down, choose the type of action you would like. Again, you have four choices: Ad Target (through Google Ad Manager or DFP), Pop-UP, Transactional Email, or Redirect.
162 +Types of Actions include: Pop-Up, Redirect, Ad Target, Email
142 142  
143 -=== **CREATE AN AD TARGET** ===
164 +You can use any existing actions by clicking in the "Select Actions" field and selecting the action (see screenshot below) or create a new action (see A-D below).
144 144  
145 -Here, we are defining an Ad Target. This will allow ONEcount to tell Google Ad Manager (DFP) what ad to target when a specific user is on your web site. The specific users will be defined in the Segment that you link to this target.
166 +[[image:attach:media_1442601673145.png||align="center"]]
146 146  
147 -In the screen below, you'll see the options for an Ad Target. The first two options are Target Domain and Section. These are used to// limit// the scope of this action, not to define it. It's important to understand the difference.
168 +Hover over an action to see details (see screenshot below).
148 148  
149 -In content-based targeting, you define a specific page or web site section (or a whole site) to be targeted with a banner or banner campaign. In effect you are saying, whenever someone comes to this section or this web site, show them this banner.
170 +[[image:attach:media_1442602167866.png||align="center"]]
150 150  
151 -ONEcount targets ads based on identity. ONEcount is saying in effect, for this specific person (as defined by the Segment linked to this Action), show this ad. Period.
152 -
153 -The Target Domain and Section options are used to limit this behavior. So what we are saying then is that for this specific person (as defined by the Segment linked to this Action) show this ad, but ONLY on these domains and in these specific sections of the site.
154 -
155 -Why would we do that? Generally, this is limitation is used because we want to target a user with one ad campaign on one site, and a different campaign on another site.
156 -
157 -For example, say we have a pediatrician who we want to target with an ad for a skin medicine on our dermatology site, but an ad for a different drug when he visits a site on diabetes.
158 -
159 -[[image:attach:Define-banner-target.png||height="250"]]
160 -
161 -The Target Domain and Section parameters are only required if you want to limit the banner. If you leave them blank, the user will be targeted across all your web sites.
162 -
163 -The last property is the Key/Value pair that you will use to tell Google Ad Manager which banners or Line Items to target at this user. Consult for Google Ad Manager documentation on Key/value pair targeting. You may specify more than one Key/Value pair for this target. This allows Google Ad Manager or DFP to decide which banners to show.
164 -
165 -For example, say you wanted to target users who read stories about high school basketball. You could create a segment of users who viewed content tagged "high school boys basketball." You could then create three Key/Value pairs for the action you link to that segment: one for high school boys basketball, one for high school sports, and one for high school boys sports. You could then use Google Ad Manager or DFP to determine how the user is targeted and the prioritization of each banner.
166 -
167 -NOTE: Prioritization of banners is done in Google Ad Manager (or DFP) based on rules you configure in GAM.
168 -
169 -=== CREATE A POP-UP TARGET ===
170 -
171 -You can also create a pop-up target for your segments. There are two different types of pop-ups that can be defined in the ONEcount Action Manager: A ONEcount pop-up, and a Custom HTML pop-up.
172 -
173 -Choose Pop-Up from the Action pull-down at the top.
174 -
175 -The next two options are Target Domain and Section. These are used to// limit// the scope of this action, not to define it. It's important to understand the difference.
176 -
177 -In content-based targeting, you define a specific page or web site section (or a whole site) to be targeted with a pop-up. In effect you are saying, whenever someone comes to this section or this web site, show them this pop-up.
178 -
179 -ONEcount targets pop-ups based on identity. ONEcount is saying in effect, for this specific person (as defined by the Segment linked to this Action), show this pop-up. Period.
180 -
181 -The Target Domain and Section options are used to limit this behavior. So what we are saying then is that for this specific person (as defined by the Segment linked to this Action) show this pop-up, but ONLY on these domains and in these specific sections of the site.
182 -
183 -Why would we do that? Generally, this is limitation is used because we want to target a user with pop-up campaign on one site, and a different campaign on another site.
184 -
185 -For example, say we have a pediatrician who we want to target with a pop-up for a skin medicine on our dermatology site, but a pop-up for a conference when he visits our site on diabetes.
186 -
187 -The Target Domain and Section parameters are only required if you want to limit the banner. If you leave them blank, the user will be targeted across all your web sites.
