Video Ad Serving & Insertion Explained for Advertisers – How It Works
SpotXchange advertisers can launch their video ad insertion campaigns within minutes of signing up. The system's administration and reporting tools are familiar to anyone experienced with PPC search engine marketing. As an advertiser, you specify in advance where, when and to whom you want to show your online video commercial based on contextual, geographic or demographic targets. Then you specify how much you are willing to pay for that impression. That value is your bid. Each time a SpotXchange publisher queries our platform for an ad your video ad serving bid amount is compared to all other bid amounts for the same publisher target. Higher bids are given priority placement over lower bids.
