What is display advertising?
Display ads are placed on relevant third-party websites in the form of a banner, image, and text ads. Display advertising is pretty much a blanket term that includes every visual ad placed on a website, however, it can be divided into three basic categories:
- Site placement advertising: In this type of display advertising, the advertiser/marketer chooses the website they would like to run their display ads on.
- Contextual advertising: In this type of display advertising, networks place ads on relevant websites, for example showing an ad for dog food on a pet adoption website.
- Remarketing: Remarketing display ads appear in front of users who have been on your website or post-click landing page but have left without completing the relevant conversion goal.
