Programmatic Advertising

What is Programmatic Advertising?

It is the buying and selling of advertising in real-life using AI and machine learning. Before programmatic advertising, the ordering, setting up, and reporting on ads had to be done manually which was expensive and unreliable. Now with the help of algorithmic software, the process has become much more efficient.

How It Works

Programmatic advertising connects the publishers and advertisers. The publisher puts ad impressions up for auction through a supply-side platform (SSP). When an advertiser wants to buy an ad space to promote their brand, they get in contact with their programmatic ad agency. The agency would then use a demand-side platform (DSP) to automate the purchase of ad impressions. DSP is a type of software and a powerful marketing automation tool that allows an advertiser to buy advertising with the help of automation. The software also allows advertisers to target certain audiences taking a variety of factors into account, such as demographics, location, user behavior and more. Through the DSP, the advertiser enters bids for ad space and automatically allocates ad impressions based on the bid price and audience targeting preferences. The process takes just 100 milliseconds to complete the bidding process.
