What is Native Advertising?
Native Advertising is a type of advertising that matches the form and function of the location in which it appears. The ad is nearly indistinguishable from the surrounding content and the website on which it appears.
Native Advertisement Placement Types
In-App
In-app refers to mobile applications. These are applications designed to run on mobile devices (smartphones and tablets).
Some apps are pre-installed, but most apps are selected, downloaded, and installed by users.
- More likely to reach a particular, single user
- Usage is on the rise; typically 65% of the population or greater
- More targeting options are typically available on a mobile device since the geo-location of the user may be available
Desktop
Even though mobile is on the rise, desktop usage is consistent. Desktop typically provides better visibility for rich media content and long content ads. There is a lot more screen space to work with.
- ROI on desktop typically outperforms mobile
- Screen display capabilities are better on desktop
- If you are seeking to get the user to fill out a form, desktop can perform in a superior way
Mobile Browser
Native ads are placed within browsers on mobile devices.
Every mobile device has a mobile browser, so your audience size potential greatly increases when using mobile browsers to target native ads.
- Large audience available
- Mobile’s share of daily internet time is now about 53.5% of the time
- Only 7.5% of mobile time is spent in a browser, but it’s very intention-based and targetable
