We strive to make Dotidot as user-friendly as possible and to make it easy and quick for everyone to navigate. However, with how extensive it is, it's clear that users could use some help hands to getting started. We've got a few of those hands for you - one of which is this guide, designed to help you find the right path.

You'll find the complete basics as well as tricks and tips for more advanced settings. And if there's something you can't find in the manual, you'll find the answer with our support guy Lukas, who is available weekdays from 9am to 5pm at support@dotidot.io. :) 

What is Dotidot and What It’s Good For?

Are you creating online ads manually? Do you do repetitive work? Do you lack a tool for truly strategic campaign management? Then Dotidot is for you. 

Dotidot stands on three imaginary pillars:

1.) You can manage campaigns for all advertising systems from one place.

Thanks to this, you can save hours of time and create bulk adgroups using variables from your data source, schedule ads to run by time period, and much more.

2.) Automate Facebook campaigns and improve content with Image editor.

This allows you to have unique creatives on Facebook that are automatically populated with data from your data source, making them stand out from the competition.

3.) Advanced Feed management.

Whether it's Data Enrichment, where you can enrich your data source with variables from other data sources or from a separate Google Sheet, or Feed Exports, where you can easily transform your data source into a format suitable for dozens of advertising platforms and comparison shopping engines.

And of course, we also think about those who do not have their own data source or it is inappropriately structured. For those, there is our Feed Scraper, which can create a data feed itself based on the sitemap from your site.

We're constantly expanding and improving our app because our long-term goal is to allow you to manage all your campaigns from one place. From Dotidot.

So how to start?

First, it is important to determine whether or not you have your own data source. If you don't have one, you can use our Feed Scraper to get it from your site using a sitemap, or if you want to give Dotidot just a try for now, we recommend our sample categorical or product feed.

The next step is to decide what to do with the data source. The options are:

1. Create a campaign
   
   
   
2. Enrich your own data source with additional data from other sources through Data enrichment.
   
   
3. Edit your data feed and export it via Feed exports to another ad system.
   
   

This is the most basic breakdown that describes the basic possibilities of working with Dotidot in the most rough outline. However, Dotidot is a very advanced automation platform that can do miracles with your campaigns. Once you get into its nooks and crannies, you'll never want to do campaigns the old-fashioned way again. We guarantee it.
