5. What is Display Advertising?
Display advertising, or “display“ refers to the use
of graphical information beyond text on the
World Wide Web that appears next to content
on web pages, IM applications, email, etc. This
includes most of the standard “banner“ ads,rich
media,video ads & sponsorship.
7. Main Categories of Display Advertising
• Traditional display (Banner Placements on
websites)
• Remarketing (Targeting banners to users who
have previously visited your website)
• Social Advertising (e.g. Facebook Ads, Ads on
LinkedIn)
• Mobile Display (Graphical advertising on
mobile sites or in-apps)

9. Common Types of Display Ads
9
HTML or Static Banners
Graphical ads Display ads are often available in many standard shapes and sizes,
including: banners, leader boards, skyscrapers, large boxes.
Rich Media Ads
Rich media ads are essentially image ads that have interactive elements, animations, or
other aspects that can change depending on who is looking at the ad and how they
interact with the ad.
Interstitials
An interstitial ad is a full-page ad that appears before the actual webpage.
Flash/DHTML Ads
These kinds of ads incorporate Flash animation or other motion graphics. Ads may be
animated display ads in more traditional shapes and sizes, or, as of late, they can be
sophisticated ads that function similarly to pop-up ads but with much deeper integration
into the overall design of the site.
11. How Ads Are Bought
Direct Sales:
Advertisers work closely with publishers to define everything from the
creative look and feel to the size and placement on the page.
Run-of-Site / Remnant:
Advertisers purchase any available inventory on a publisher’s site that
hasn’t already been sold.
Ad Exchanges:
Ad exchanges are companies that broker online advertising by bringing
advertising buyers and website publishers together to participate in
auctions for ad space
Ad Networks:
Ad networks ultimately serve as the sales representatives for the
websites that are part of the network

programs to each client’s individual needs and objectives.
14. Defining Paid Search
• Paid Search is the process of gaining traffic by
purchasing ads on the search engines.
– Advertising is traditionally sold on a cost-per-click
(CPC) basis, in an auction setting
– Paid search is also often referred to as PPC, CPC, or
SEM
17. Distribution of Paid Listings vs. Clicks
Positioning does have importance in paid search. Often, advertisers are
faced with the dilemma of cost efficiency vs. volume.
18. The Features of Paid Search
• Keyword based advertising
• Auction-based, Cost per Click (CPC) pricing
model.
• Ad Positioning is determined by Quality Score
and Maximum Bids
• Text based ad copy
• Geographic targeting
• Day parting
19. Keyword Selection: Long Tail vs. Head
Terms

20. Quality Score
A relevancy score between 1-10 is the search engine’s estimate of your advertising’s relevancy to
the user. Quality score is impacted by multiple factors:

In digital media, CPM refers to ad impressions– every time an ad unit is displayed in a browser..CPC:Cost per Click typically used for DIRECT RESPONSE Price paid by an advertiser to a publisher only when a user clicks on an ad. Similar to search an advertiser does not pay on impression basis.CPA:Cost per Action / Acquisition DIRECT RESPONSE Price paid by an advertiser to a publisher when a user completed a desired, pre-defined activity. Usually captured via cookies.Sponsorship / CPD:Publishers work closely with advertisers to create ad content suited for a specific placement. Unique opportunities for a single advertiser to obtain a large “share of voice” on a publisher’s site.

Explain direct sales. Explain concept of selling remnant inventory.This type of selling ad inventory is very similar to what a newspaper would do. When you want to advertise in a newspaper you can ring them up and tell them that in the next issue you would like to have an ad of a certain size on the first page. Or you you say you want to run in the sports section. That‘s direct sales. Or you say you don‘t mind where the ad appears as long as it‘s in the next issue of that particular newspaper.If you buy simple banner ads you usually pay on a CPM basis. And you get a guarantee of a certain amount of impressions. So, in the end you might agree on getting 2M impressions over the time of one week for a CPM of $35. Deciding exactly where you want to appear is, of course, more expensive than running on remnant inventory.“
