Video Ad Formats for effective monetization with Clickaine
It is common knowledge that 60% of users will watch a video before reading the texts on a web page. As a result, Video Ads are regarded as one of the most profitable revenue streams.
This fact led us to prepare a tutorial that will help you to set up a zone for Video ads on your website that will increase your revenue.
The main reason to use Video Ad on your website are:
• it is the most profitable ad format;
• Video ad is compatible with all browsers;
• each campaign are checked by our internal security tools, to avoid suspicious activities;
• safe and relevant for users;
• not annoying to users, because users are familiar with such type of ad and can easily skip it.
Clickaine offer full set and the best performing Video Ads formats:
In-stream: video ads that play before, during, or after a video you want to watch.
- In-stream video ads divided by 3 types:
‣ a pre-roll — is a video that appears before the video that the user has selected to play;
‣ a midroll – It is usually a short ad in the middle of a video. It is a more aggressive format, so we recommend using pre-roll at the beginning;
‣ a post-roll — is a promotional video that appears after the video has finished and therefore is less intrusive.
Out-stream (Video slider): video ads that appear in non-video based editorial content, play on-page, and full-width after a user has read or scrolled to a certain point down the page.
In-banner Video: it looks like a traditional display ad unit, but instead of media, a video is shown.
To create a Video Ad zone you should complete these simple steps:
Please note that the following example is how to create a zone for Video slider, the same flow is valid for In-stream video, but instead of generating code for the website, you will generate code for the video player.
