Online Food Publishers Bible

Posted on Wednesday 21 December 2011

Publishers and advertisers alike are always looking for new and exciting ways to advertise their products. When it comes to online food marketing, publishers and advertisers can both benefit from the up and coming phenomenon of Private Ad Exchange.

An ad exchange is the ideal tool for finding out different ways of reaching target demographics. Ad exchanges are mostly beneficial for the publisher, although buyers (advertisers) can also take advantage of this tool.
Ad Exchanges are basically Real-Time Bidding (RTB) platforms or marketplaces for publishers to sell inventory i.e. advertising space and data. It has proven to be an effective way of targeting specific buyers and increasing revenue sales by selling on unsold ad spaces on various web pages.

In the past, there have been issues raised about the types of adverts that are displayed in a publisher’s ad space. With ad exchanges, a publisher has a lot more control over who purchases the inventory and how much it goes for. With this type of bidding platform, publishers can have a lot more control and can place only safe and relevant commercials on their associate sites.

These platforms have particularly gained popularity in the world of food advertising, mainly due to the fact that recipe and food sites have so many linked sites that private exchanges are ideal for targeting food specialists. Publishers can then benefit from filling their ad spaces and increasing revenue, whilst the buyer can ensure the exposure of their brand or product through advertising in different places and to more specific audiences.

Not only is this a safe way of working, publishers can also arrange their own buying terms which also means they can benefit from the demographic targeting system too.
