Delivery methods:
Measurability
Online advertisers can collect data on their ads' effectiveness, such as the size of
the potential audience or actual audience response, how a visitor reached their
advertisement, whether the advertisement resulted in a sale, and whether an ad actually
loaded within a visitor's view. This helps online advertisers improve their ad campaigns
over time.
Formatting
Advertisers have a wide variety of ways of presenting their promotional
messages, including the ability to convey images, video, audio, and links. Unlike many
offline ads, online ads also can be interactive. For example, some ads let users input
queries or let users follow the advertiser on social media. Online ads can even
incorporate games.
Targeting
Publishers can offer advertisers the ability to reach customizable and narrow
market segments for targeted advertising. Online advertising may use geo-targeting to
display relevant advertisements to the user's geography. Advertisers can customize
each individual ad to a particular user based on the user's previous
preferences. Advertisers can also track whether a visitor has already seen a particular
ad in order to reduce unwanted repetitious exposures and provide adequate time gaps
between exposures.
Coverage
Online advertising can reach nearly every global market, and online advertising
influences offline sales.
Speed
Once ad design is complete, online ads can be deployed immediately. The
delivery of online ads does not need to be linked to the publisher's publication schedule.
Furthermore, online advertisers can modify or replace ad copy more rapidly than their
offline counterparts.
Concerns
Banner blindness
Eye-tracking studies have shown that Internet users often ignore web page
zones likely to contain display ads (sometimes called "banner blindness"), and this
problem is worse online than in offline media. On the other hand, studies suggest that
even those ads "ignored" by the users may influence the user subconsciously.
There are numerous ways that advertisers can be overcharged for their
advertising. For example, click fraud occurs when a publisher or third parties click
(manually or through automated means) on a CPC ad with no legitimate buying intent.
For example, click fraud can occur when a competitor clicks on ads to deplete its rival's
advertising budget, or when publishers attempt to manufacture revenue.
Click fraud is especially associated with pornography sites. In 2011, certain
scamming porn websites launched dozens of hidden pages on each visitor's computer,
forcing the visitor's computer to click on hundreds of paid links without the visitor's
knowledge.
As with offline publications, online impression fraud can occur when publishers
overstate the number of ad impressions they have delivered to their advertisers. To
combat impression fraud, several publishing and advertising industry associations are
developing ways to count online impressions credibly.
Anti-targeting technologies
Some web browsers offer privacy modes where users can hide information about
themselves from publishers and advertisers. Among other consequences, advertisers
can't use cookies to serve targeted ads to private browsers. Most major browsers have
incorporated Do Not Track options into their browser headers, but the regulations
currently are only enforced by the honor system.
