In-App Bidding Gathers Steam, But Adoption Looks Nothing Like Header Bidding On The Web

Mobile app advertisers have been slower than their web counterparts to embrace programmatic-style RTB auctions. That’s starting to change as more app publishers test in-app bidding and see significant lifts in ARPDAU (average revenue per daily user). “Publishers are pushing their ad networks to get into bidding, and we’re beginning to see a snowball effect,”...

The Big Story: Dream A Little (Bid) Stream

Programmatic auction dynamics can be arcane, even for the most technical among us. Google has Open Bidding (nee Exchange Bidding), Amazon’s got Transparent Ad Marketplace (TAM) and Prebid predates them both, not to mention a host of other wrappers on the scene.

Wise Publishing Gets Wise To Latency Reduction

Slow-loading ads are still a perennial problem for publishers. Wise Publishing, a Toronto-based publisher of personal finance content with around 5 million monthly unique visitors, acquires a significant portion of its traffic through paid channels. But if an ad loads slowly and a visitor leaves, so does that monetization opportunity. “Dealing with latency is incredibly... Continue reading »

Rubicon Project Built Demand Manager To Give Publishers More Control Over Open Web

Publishers want to control their header bidding – especially in light of Google Ad Manager’s changing rules and proprietary header bidding wrappers giving preference to their own demand.

This article is sponsored by Prebid.org. 2018 wasn’t the year header bidding first began disrupting how exchanges and publishers thought about monetizing their inventory, but it may be remembered as the year it reached an inflection point. According to the ServerBid Header Bidding Industry Index, nearly 75% of the U.S.’s top 1,000 websites had adopted header... Continue reading »
