Native advertising is a way of distributing content specifically on media sites. Although they are clearly marked as ads, native ads blend in elegantly because they are integrated into the design, style and content of the website they appear in. This reduces the disturbance factor for readers to a minimum compared to classic banner ads.
Native ads are able to give content high visibility and reach. Because they are placed so near to the content of renowned media partners, they benefit from the native ad provider’s popularity and reputation and readers see them in a trusted environment.
Native ad providers guarantee that your media material gets placed with high-quality media partners. Where you would otherwise have to rely upon what an editorial office would favour, here the editorial use of your content is no longer essential. Native ads let your media releases appear on popular media sites.
Other advantages of native ads are good search engine visibility and a high ranking. They increase the visibility of your message because your content is published on established media sites rated as high quality by Google & Co. This guarantees fast and good discoverability and also higher click numbers due to recognisability by readers of the pages.
Native ads can also be a tool for generating good leads. Targeted placement of your content on topic-related portals raises awareness among qualified contacts of you and your products.
By specifically targeting media portals, native ad providers help you tap into new target groups. Your content is not only displayed on media pages to the target groups you have defined, but also to the page’s entire audience.
