Do I still need a separate retargeting campaign?

Separate retargeting is useful when you need tight control and budgets. Otherwise, modern delivery can self-retarget if you feed it strong signals.

This issue is common among Meta advertisers and usually indicates a structural or optimization problem that can be resolved with the right approach. Understanding the mechanism behind the problem is the first step to fixing it.

This problem typically stems from one or more of the following:

• Check how much traffic you actually have to retarget
• If low volume, retargeting can starve and be noisy
• If high volume and varied funnel, separate retargeting can help

Follow these steps to identify the root cause:

1. Check how much traffic you actually have to retarget
2. If low volume, retargeting can starve and be noisy
3. If high volume and varied funnel, separate retargeting can help

Once you've identified the cause, apply these fixes:

1. Start by identifying the root cause using the diagnostic checklist above
2. Make one change at a time and wait 24-48 hours to see results
3. Document what you changed and the outcome for future reference
4. If the issue persists, consider reaching out to Meta support with specific details
5. Use the quick fix page for immediate action items
