- Logic:
- Search form ads will refresh based Make, Search Type
- Make pages are targetable by Make and DMA; the ads do not refresh based on filters.
- Search Results page- Scenario 1
– Ad serves based on selection of the first Make 1.
– If Make 1 is removed, the ads will rotate Make 2, Make 3, etc.
– Scenario 2
– No Make is selected on initial view of search results page, then shopper selects Makes from the fly-out. Ads will rotate and are not selected based on Make 1, Make 2, etc.
