"Conversions via video view" is the conversions that is counted after user’s video viewing but no ad clicks. Because of no charge by ad clicks, this conversion was previously excluded from the target to be used for bid optimization.
After the use of video ads increased, we conducted a test using conversions via video view for autobidding. And we confirmed the effectiveness such as improving the accuracy of automation and increasing the number of conversions. For this reason, conversion via video view will be used for optimization. This change will increase accuracy of autobidding and improve the advertising effect.

"For ad quality"

We have added the conversions via video view as a factor used for ad quality. This change will increase the ad quality for both manual and auto bidding, and is expected to increase the impressions.

  　[After] 3 days
