Brand safety suitability

No matter your industry, reputation matters, especially regarding the sites you choose for digital advertising without relying on users’ personal data. Organizations are (or, at least, should be) increasingly concerned about brand safety; consumers and clients have more choices than ever when it comes to purchases and services. One poorly placed ad could mean the difference between landing a new client and attracting the scorn of the Twitterverse to tarnish your brand’s reputation—and send sales spiraling. Conversely, an audience viewing a resonating ad at the right time on a reputable media outlet could spark fierce brand loyalty. Building and protecting your brand’s reputation across the advertising ecosystem isn’t always an easy balance to strike. We’ll go over how you can advertise to ...

Connected TV is the fastest-growing digital advertising channel, now surpassing linear TV, and with good reason. While COVID-19 helped accelerate CTV adoption, the trend shows no signs of tapering off for the digital advertising ecosystem in 2022 and beyond: Leichtman Research Group said over 80% of TV households have at least one CTV device, a penetration higher than cable TV. eMarketer projects that CTV households will increase to 115.2 million by 2025, from 106.4 million in 2021.

There are a number of methods brands use to ensure brand suitability – most involve measuring publisher quality using reports from Invalid Traffic (IVT) vendors. These reports, generally speaking, are based on aggregated impression data about the quality of the visitor, not necessarily the quality of the publisher itself. They only scratch the surface when it comes to determining if a specific publisher is truly a valuable place for brands to put ad dollars.

But it’s not the only reason you have to be vigilant about brand suitability; bad-actors can “bamboozle” things like hidden ad placements and other elements like a terrible user experience. ...

Programmatic media is efficient at maximizing reach and achieving cost-efficient outcomes, but without contextual layers, it may neglect brand suitability. Prioritizing targeted contexts can greatly improve personalization, ad effectiveness, and resonance. Keyword and category-based targeting are effective, but we wanted to challenge ourselves and create a solution that was better suited for fueling brand growth and development. ...

“The internet has dramatically expanded the modern marketer’s tool kit, in large part because of one simple but transformative development: digital data” (HBR) This evolution of marketing has happened at great speed, and cost—primarily to consumers. The too-often unchecked use of data has resulted in significant changes to browser controls, and privacy regulations that protect the consumer. Of course, marketers have gotten accustomed to the data, so the consumer-driven push for privacy presents challenges for marketers who rely on user data to connect with their audience. The flip side of these challenges is the opportunity they bring. Internet transparency and privacy regulations, along with web browsers blocking cookies ensure legacy audience-based targeting strategies eventually won’t ...
