25、AL,PROGRAMMATIC,MOBILE,LOCAL,PARTNER,NATIVE,AND FEED MARKETINGA Brief Historyof Digital AdvertisingGoogle introduced AdWords with 350 advertisers in 2000.They werent the first web network to ofer advertising inventory to advertisers(that would be banner ads which appeared six years earlier on HotWir
26、ed,a precursor to todays Wired Magazine),and AdWords wasnt even Googles first advertising platform,with Premium Sponsorships launching just two months prior.But AdWords was the network that would change the game,because it had a feature that no other digital advertising channel had thought to add to
27、 that point:self-service.By the time AdWords launched,banner ads were already ubiquitous,but none of them could be managed by the advertiser,and the ability to serve ads to users based upon their search interests rather than simply what site they were on created a demand for similar abilities across
28、 other channels.As it would turn out,those channels didnt quite exist yet.While Google spent a significant amount of time and resources revamping their Display Network targeting,the next systemic change wasnt to come from Google,it was from arguably their two biggest competitors.Facebook first intro
29、duced social advertising in 2005(when it was still restricted to users with a.edu email)as a way to promote JPMorgan/Chase credit cards,and it was at that point little more than an in-app(before there were apps as we know them)display channel.Two years later,Facebook Ads opened to advertisers,and in
30、 a move that represented the dawn of a new era and a signal change for how internet users would behave forever,Apple released the iPhone,and mobile advertising begun.Its been fast and furious from there.In 2008,Google answered the competition by rolling out pre-roll video inventory in YouTube.In 200
31、9,True introduced native advertising.In 2010,Twitter entered the game with Promoted Tweets.Giving into demand by marketers to automate some of their ad buying,programmatic advertising began to take hold in 2012,and Pinterest launched ads in 2014,Instagram followed in 2015,as did Snapchat.Search Adve
32、rtisingTraditionally,search advertising is referred to(incorrectly)as“PPC”,“CPC”or“paid advertising”(all advertising is paid,after all!).Our traditional conventions for search advertising are quickly changing,however,as both Google and Bing have introduced a number of extensions that make search ads
33、 look less and less traditional.In the past few years alone,extensions for phone calls,SMS text messages,and maps have become prevalent,in addition to more traditional extensions such as sitelinks and callouts.Product listing ads,too,allow users to shop right on the search results page,and remarketi
34、ng campaigns have allowed brands to re-target users that are already familiar with their brand and website,increasing click-through and conversion rates.Product Listing AdsDesktop Search AdsMobile Search AdDisplay Advertising&Rich MediaWeve come a long way from this ad,which appeared on HotW in 1994

41、a buying process to save on labor,and by definition is the algorithmic buying and selling of advertising inventory in real time.Because the process is completely algorithmic and happens in real time,programmatic campaigns over time evolve to serve ads to only the most relevant audiences,which genera
42、lly leads to improvements in campaign efectiveness.Mobile AdvertisingSure,mobile advertising could mean serving search or display ads to users on their phones.But in this case,were talking about serving ads to users based on where their mobile device is at a given time(which is hopefully where they
43、are as well).Technology that targets users based upon their current location allows brands to serve ads to users who may be leaving the store of their competitor,might be near a store when a sale is ongoing,or may be traveling nearby.A more sophisticated form of this tactic is beacon-based marketing
44、,which allows stores to place sensors(beacons)throughout their stores to target ads to users based upon the department that theyre actually in,although this has not yet caught on as it requires users to constantly be checking their phones while shopping,which is a user behavior that hasnt been widel
45、y learned or adopted yet.Directory AdvertisingYou know about directory advertising,because every time you check out a local restaurant on Yelp or research a hotel for your next vacation on TripAdvisor,the first thing(and usually things)that you see is a sponsored review.Advertising with directories
46、has multiple benefits in addition to the sponsored reviews.Advertisers who partner with directories traditionally see more positive reviews show up on their pages,can select which images to feature on their pages and will often have added abilities to respond to reviewers both on-and of-page.Local A
47、dvertisingIf you think that mobile advertising and local advertising are the same things,you wouldnt be alone.While mobile ads depend upon the user and the device,local marketing relies on establishing partnerships with local sites,chambers of commerce,or media outlets to secure featured positions o
48、n their sites(these may not necessarily be inventory-based positions;they could be links or featured articles,etc.).While these spots may not be as valuable as they once were,they still represent opportunities to get significant exposure among a local audience,the value of which shouldnt be discount
49、ed.Product FeedAdvertisingWhile standard retargeting allows brands to promote themselves to users who are already familiar with their site,name,and maybe products or services;product feed remarketing allows brands to promote their products to users who have already seen them.This not only increases
50、product familiarity,it also increases the likelihood that users will make a purchase that they may otherwise have stopped considering.Native AdvertisingNative is simply inventory bought on articles hosted by other publishers.Anytime youve read an article on or any other similar site thats had links
51、to other content in or following the body copy,youve seen native advertising.In an ideal world,the headline of the promoted content would bear a close relevance to the article itself,but this isnt always the case.IoT MarketingAs our homes,ofces and lives become increasingly connected,the Internet of

56、 be a dangerous approach;one of the biggest mistakes that digital advertisers can make is to not have a strategy in place before launching their ads.This not only can result in confusion and frustration,but also more notable issues such as reporting errors,overspending or under-serving,and possibly
