This article will help clarify what programmatic advertisement is. We will be covering topics such as real-time bidding, targeting techniques, and cost-effectiveness. We will discuss the benefits and drawbacks to this type of advertising, in addition to the basics. Here's a breakdown of the process. Let's have a look.
Bidding live in real time
Real-time bidding refers to purchasing impressions using a system that links demand-side platforms and supply-side platform (SPs). This process is also known cost per mille, or CPM. It is similar a car auction, where you place bids based only on the price you would pay to each individual user. Ad exchanges connect publishers and advertisers to run auctions.
Ad exchanges allow publishers and demand-side platform (DSPs), access to ad inventory. Real-time bidding occurs at an ad platform. During the process, advertisers set targeting parameters, including audience demographics and locations. An advertiser might choose to target users who live in a specific area or have recently visited their website. The publisher will publish the ad after a bidder makes a final decision.
Targeting tactics
Using geo-fencing or other targeting tactics in programmatic advertising helps advertisers to reach a specific audience. You can target people based on their age, location and interests. By geo-fencing, you can even target specific pockets of users. However, you could end up competing against other advertisers for ad spaces. This article will discuss some of the best targeting tactics for programmatic advertising.
First, determine your audience. Although you should target users all over the Web, you shouldn't limit your targeting to people based on how many people have visited your site or called your number. Your goal is to generate leads by using SMART goals. These goals are specific, quantifiable, and relevant. After you have identified your audience, find a DSP that can support your goals. DSPs like Google DV360 can help you target users in different B2B segments. Partnering with a DMP is another important part of programmatic advertising. This overlays data from different DSPs.
Cost-effectiveness
Digital advertising has many challenges. One of them is cost-effectiveness. Programmatic advertising relies on online targeting methods to increase both publisher and advertiser ROI. Although there are many steps involved, the final result is the same: increased advertising revenue for publishers and advertisers. Algorithms and a host of analytics are used to determine which ad is to be served to visitors during the bidding process. Publishers can increase revenues by bidding above the average and increasing competition.
Programmatic advertising has a much higher cost-effectiveness than traditional advertising methods. Programmatic ads typically cost $0.50 to $2 per thousand impressions. This is significantly lower than what social media networks charge. Programmatic ads can also be sold on a CPM basis, CPC basis, or CPA basis. Ads can be sold on CPC but programmatic advertising is most commonly sold on CPM.
Targeting options
Advertisers can now add hundreds or even thousands of targeting options to their ads with programmatic buying. These tools enable advertisers to track and measure ad performance and determine cost per view and interaction. Programmatic buying allows advertisers to serve ads based on audience interests and demographics, such as income, job/career, and education. These factors allow advertisers create highly targeted advertisements in order to reach the correct audience.
A programmatic advertising campaign can be made more effective by targeting ads at specific web content. An example of this is a fashion retailer targeting its ads on Vogue Magazine. A financial services company may also want to target ads at Forbes. Programmatic advertising allows advertisers to target specific audiences based on their preferences. This allows you to tailor your ads to your customers' needs and increases your chances of success.
