His ad looks polished and engaging, and you can tell it’s getting a lot of attention.

Naturally, you start thinking - how many more ads is this guy running? How much is he spending? What’s his secret?

Additionally, you can see the publishing date for each ad and their duration.

You can also check which ads were getting the most attention based on his spend.

It’s very useful to see how much he’s investing and where.

Step 3: Checking Out Landing Pages

A cool additional VidTao feature is being able to see all the landing pages advertisers are testing.

You can actually click through and see the pages people landed on after watching the ads.

Was Stephen running different offers? Testing different layouts? You can finally see for yourself, and it helps you understand what strategies he might be using to convert viewers into paying students.

Step 4: Using These Insights to Boost Your Own Ads

With all this information, you now have a much clearer picture of what your competitor is doing—and how you could improve your own approach.

You can see what types of videos were working for him, what kind of budget he was working with, and how he was leading people to his offers.

Instead of a guessing game, you are now able to make informed decisions about your next campaigns.

And the best part? You can do all of this with VidTao.
