Why do top publishers such as Forbes, CNN, Reuters, and USA Today run Media.net ads on their sites? Their cutting-edge technology, a wide array of innovative solutions, coupled with superior customer support, draw leading publishers towards this contextual advertising network. You too can monetize your inventory with the digital industry’s second-largest player in contextual advertising. Here’s a rundown on Media.net’s offerings that benefit small, independent, and established publishers alike.
1. Access to extensive and exclusive advertising budgets
The Media.net Marketplace combines the expansive Yahoo! Bing ads network with direct, keyword-targeted demand from leading advertisers and agencies. Adding RTB-enabled Demand Side Partners (DSPs) into the mix, the platform introduces stiff competition in a first-price auction, and offers publishers exclusive access to search advertising budgets worth $6 billion from the Yahoo! Bing contextual ads network. This rich bid-density ensures the highest possible revenue for your inventory. Regardless of whether your website is in a popular or niche vertical, this extensive demand fuels consistent fill-rates, making Media.net one of the most preferred ad platforms in the ecosystem.
Media.net runs ads that are not dependent on information tracked by cookies, an important fact in the wake of stringent user privacy regulations that have been passed, especially GDPR and CCPA. This platform powers ad units through the context of your content, independent of audience data. Their proprietary contextual tech runs a complete keyword and content analysis of your website to determine the kinds of ads that suit your audience the most.
3. Multiple ad types that balance UX and revenue
Media.net’s algorithms automatically match relevant ads to every page on your website with a single ad tag or code on your website. Apart from traditional display ads, publishers can also unlock other high-engagement formats including:
- Contextual ads: This format, using relevant keywords, allows refined and focused targeting based on user intent. These ads are also called Display to Search ads. Designed by Media.net, this ad format brings search budgets to your display placements by identifying consumer search intent. For example, if your website deals in travel stories, the platform will serve ads displaying package-tours to your audience. Advertisers offer higher prices for such intent-driven marketing. Thus, this model draws higher revenues.
- Native ads: Native ads blend in with the layout and design of your webpage and are, hence, non-intrusive. AI-driven optimal placements capture user interest at the right moment. Media.net’s native ads have especially shown great results when it comes to audience engagement.
- Mobile responsive ads: Mobile devices accounted for 51.3% of global internet traffic in the second quarter of 2020. With Media.net, you can insert responsive and customizable ad creatives that resize according to the device’s screen resolution. This feature helps publishers monetize voluminous mobile traffic with ease.
4. Ease of integration and multiple ways of collaboration
