# How to optimize your Meta campaign ROI with personalization

If you run campaigns for Instagram or Facebook, you're already used to the idea of segmenting users based on a criterion. Have you ever thought about expanding your strategy to your own website?

By using personalized content based on the ads’ audience, you can deliver consistent, targeted messaging that reflects the offers users first saw, improving engagement and conversions without [creating multiple landing pages](/post/how-to-create-multiple-landing-pages-faster.md).

This article is a how-to guide to help you personalize your website based on marketing campaigns. Follow this step-by-step playbook to implement this strategy effectively.

> If you are a developer, you can use our [template](http://croct.com/templates/use-case/e-commerce/instagram-campaign) through our CLI instead of configuring this manually on the interface.

## How to match website content to Meta campaigns’ messaging

Creating an experience is as easy as defining which users you want to impact, what part of your website you want to change, and the personalized content you want to show them.

Start by heading to [Experiences](https://app.croct.com/redirect/organizations/-organization-/workspaces/-workspace-/experiences), click **New**, and choose a name for your experience. Now, we'll show you how to:

- Segment users based on specific campaign attributes
- Select the slot you want to personalize
- And define which content you’ll display to users coming from a specific campaign.

### Audience

> ✨
>
> With Croct, you can use our [Contextual Query Language (CQL)](https://docs.croct.com/reference/cql/introduction) to define audience criteria. It is an English-based language that combines the simplicity of natural language with an intuitive syntax that makes it easy for both technical and non-technical users.

With Croct, you can use the UTM parameters in your marketing campaigns (medium, source, campaign name, or term) to identify where the user is coming from. It is also possible to add two or more campaigns to the same audience using [or](https://docs.croct.com/reference/cql/expressions/operations/logical/or), [and](https://docs.croct.com/reference/cql/expressions/operations/logical/and), [starts with](https://docs.croct.com/reference/cql/expressions/tests/string/starts-with), [ends with](https://docs.croct.com/reference/cql/expressions/tests/string/ends-with), or [matches](https://docs.croct.com/reference/cql/expressions/tests/string/matches).

Click on **New audience** and enter a CQL expression that matches the target audience, like this:

Click on **New audience** and enter a CQL expression that matches the target audience. You can use our **campaign variable** to segment your traffic. Here are some examples of segmentation criteria:

```cql noLineNumber
campaign's source is "instagram"
campaign's content matches "promo" and campaign's source is "instagram"
user has viewed a campaign with content like "promo" in the last 30 days
```

### Slot and content

Slots are any personalizable elements of your application.

Some popular choices are the hero section, carousel section, and testimonials. Still, you can also personalize any page section to include targeted information.

Select the slot you want to personalize, and finally, click on **Content** to specify elements such as images, copies, and button colors you want your audience to view. Be creative, and don’t forget to match the offer you’ve shown users on your ads.
