 We explore effective aspects of advertising appeals in advertising texts.

 • Effective aspects might be different for each industry
  5. Motivation • Effective aspects might be different for each industry

    e-commerce (EC) industry automobile industry Limited offers Quality of product What are the effective aspects for each industry? 5

  6. Main Idea large-scale but unlabeled… Advertising performance metric: CTR =

    clicks ÷ impression • We investigate the relationship between CTR and aspects of advertising appeals 6
 (Ad text, IndustryType, CTR) (“Members Get an Extra 20% OFF”, Travel, 0.7) Ad text IndustryType CTR
  7. Main Idea Aspect detection model labeled dataset large-scale but unlabeled…

    • We investigate the relationship between CTR and aspects of advertising appeals 7

  8. Main Idea Aspect detection model Annotated dataset Train labeled dataset

    (Ad text, IndustryType, CTR) (Ad text, IndustryType, CTR, Aspect) large-scale but unlabeled… • We investigate the relationship between CTR and aspects of advertising appeals 8
 (Ad text, Aspect)
  9. Goal • Create a dataset of ad texts annotated with

    the advertising appeals • Develop an aspect detection model to identify the aspects • Explore the effective aspects through correlation analysis in different industires ◦ between advertising appeals and performance metric (click-through-rate; CTR) Dataset construction Aspect detection model Correlation analysis 9

  10. Dataset construction • Data Resource ◦ 2,738 ads from Mar.

    1, 2020 to Feb. 28, 2021 through Google Ads (in Japanese) • Two steps to define our aspect labels ◦ Step 1: Found eight aspects through our preliminary analysis ▪ special deals, quality, problem solving, speed, user-friendliness, limited offers, product lineup, trend ◦ Step 2: Refined the aspect labels based on the opinion of experienced ad creator (1)Special deals (2) Discount price (3) Reward points (4) Free (5) Special gift (6)Features (7) Quality (8) Problem sovling (9) Speed (10) User-friendliness (11) Transportation (12)Limited offers (13) Limited time (14) Limited target (15) First-time limited (16)Performance (17) Largest/no.1 (18) Product lineup (19) Trend (20)Others (21) Story 10

  11. Annotation Example • Define an advertising expression as a span

    text to be annotated • Allow annotators to provide multiple labels for each span No.1 Insurance For Children. Enroll Now While You Can. Get a Free Health Insurance Quote in 3 Easy Steps. ✅ Free ✅ User-friendliness ✅ Largest/no.1 11

  12. Statistics of annotated dataset “#spans” represents the number of span

    texts annotated with each label. • 2,738 ad texts in total ◦ include 4,219 spans 12

  14. Aspect Detection Model • Span-based model [Zhang+, 2019] ◦ Extracts

    spans and predicts aspect labels for each span • Doc-based model [Devlin+, 2019] ◦ Predicts labels for an entire ad text ◦ A document classification model BERT & CRF [CLS] Watch Docs, Movies & More - Get the First Month Free Free, First-time limited offer MLP O O O O O O O … O O O O O O … B I I I I … I I I I E

  15. Experiments • Aspect detection ◦ Evaluate two models: the span-based

    and doc-based models • Correlation analysis ◦ Analyze which aspects labels are effective in each industry • CTR prediction ◦ Investigate whether the aspect labels contribute to CTR prediction Aspect detection CTR prediction Train 1,857 136,352 Valid 465 16,084 Test 410 15,976 Also used for 
 correlation analysis

  16. Results - Aspect Detection • The doc-based model outperformed the

    span-based model. • “Free”, “Speed”, “Transportation”, “Largest/no.1” are easy to detect. 17
 “Free shipping”
  17. Results - Aspect Detection • The doc-based model outperformed the

    span-based model. • “Free”, “Speed”, “Transportation”, “Largest/no.1” are easy to detect. • The limited number of annotation causes low performance 18

  18. Correlation analysis • Observed a weak correlation between the aspect

    labels and CTR “One of the largest websites in Japan” (国内最大級サイト) “Get [N] points for new membership” (新規入会&利用で[N]ポイント) 20

  19. CTR Prediction • Investigate the effectiveness of the aspect labels

    in CTR prediction ◦ Can be a potential application for ad creation support • Model ◦ Input: ad text, “predicted” aspect labels ◦ Output: CTR score [0-1] “Watch Docs, Movies & More - Get the First Month Free” 
 Free,First-time Limited Offer CTR score [0-1] BERT 0.74 21

  20. Results - CTR Prediction • Identification of aspect labels contributes

    to CTR prediction • Doc-based model improved the performance than span-based model 22

  21. Summary • Explored the effective aspects of advertising appeals in

    different industries ◦ Dataset construction ◦ Aspect detection ◦ Correlation analysis between aspects and CTR • Demonstrated that each industry exhibits unique effective aspects and that identification of aspect labels contributes to CTR prediction Future direction ➔ Investigate whether presenting the effective aspects can help ad creators write effective ad texts in a real-world scenario ➔ Aspect-based ad text geneartion 23
