Shadow Campaign
Deploy a Shadow Campaign to isolate high-risk traffic into a separate Manual CPC campaign.
What is a Shadow Campaign?
A Shadow Campaign creates a separate campaign with a set Manual CPC to isolate and contain high-risk traffic, preventing it from draining your primary campaign's budget.
