The co-founder of NativeAds.com (an aggregator of Taboola / Outbrain / RevContent / MGID /etc ads) just dropped some MASSIVE knowledge bombs on a recent interview I did with him, and I figured I'd share it with you --> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ufmEJdVTYhw
He shared how the algorithms work, what times to submit the ads for fastest approvals, what verticals are working best, etc.
He also went over how many ads to submit in each ad group, and what bidding strategies work best.
Here are the slides if you want to download them --> https://app.box.com/s/h73osnsf18cosy00ncj51tzr5orb6nbc
I hope this helps some people out.
The stuff he went over is actually similar to a talk he gave at the Ads4Dough event 2 months ago, which was absolute fire.
Here are some of the slides, inserted into the post, for people who dont want to watch the actual interview:
Best campaign submission times for Outbrain

Metadatas importance on Outbrain

Budgeting strategy on Outbrain (the bigger the budget, the more the algo favors you. Do $700/week, instead of $100/day)

Losing categories to clock on RevContent

Geography strategy on native ads

This is all Native Noob Gold! Thanks for the share. I was really surprised about the importance of metadata since you can pretty much dismiss this in coding for pop and display.
