Maximize your ad revenue

Maximizing Your Ad Revenue

Making money from display advertising: what matters?

Advertisers pay most to
- Display adverts that lead to a sale
- Target particular, relevant audience

Publishers need to
- Show ad campaigns that their visitors are likely to be interested in
- Display different ads to different visitors, depending on which target group they "fit in"

To maximize revenue, publishers need to match advertisers to particular website visitors

In order to maximize revenue, publishers have to meet two fundamental challenges

1. Sell space to multiple advertisers
2. Match individual advertisers with individual website visitors

Publishers can sell advertising space to different types of organisation

Direct advertisers
- Advertisers that buy space directly from individual web publishers

Ad networks
- Sell space (inventory) on behalf of multiple websites to multiple websites
- Generally take a "revenue share"
- Examples: Google Adsense, Commission Junction, Tradedoubler

Ad exchanges
- Auction inventory to the highest paying advertiser / ad network
- Different models
- Examples: Right Media, Traffiq, ADSDAQ

Advertisers that buy space directly from individual web publishers
