Should I duplicate winning campaigns?
Usually, no.
Duplicating campaigns doesn't magically improve performance. In many cases, the duplicate simply competes against the original campaign in the same auction, increasing your own costs.
Instead, consider duplicating only when you want to:
- Test a different bidding strategy
- Target another country
- Try a different audience
- Test a completely different creative angle
Otherwise, it's usually better to optimize the existing campaign.
