Aegon Drive Engaged Traffic to Healthcare-related Blog Content and Health Insurance Product Pages with Taboola Sponsored Content
Aegon was looking for new and innovative ways to reach relevant potential customers for their health insurance product. They worked with Taboola to reach those potential customers outside of search and social channels on the open web — news sites, blogs, online magazines and other digital properties.
Aegon wanted to reach those consumers with two types of campaigns: a traffic campaign that directed people to blog articles about societal health issues like COVID-19 safety measures, or recommended health habits; and a performance campaign that directed them to the Aegon website to learn more about their specific health insurance offering.
For both campaigns, Aegon used Taboola sponsored content ads with a call-to-action (CTA) button ad on for the performance campaigns. The CTA appears as a button alongside the creative, and is designed to catch the attention of users and drive them towards a specific post-click action.
Implementing a CTA button on Aegon’s sponsored content creatives decreased CPL for their performance campaigns by 63%, and increased conversion rate by 163%.
