-
Assistance with introducing Header Bidding (HB):
Header bidding is a mechanism that boosts ad revenue by simultaneously running auctions with multiple SSPs/DSPs (bidders) and ad servers. We support both open-source Prebid and Google’s Open Bidding and assist with the optimal introduction of HB tailored to each media company’s situation. -
Use of private marketplaces (PMPs):
PMPs address the challenges of low prices and the inability to specify advertisers in programmatic advertising by allowing specific ad slots to be purchased by specific advertisers through prioritized real-time bidding (RTB). PMPs can boost profitability while avoiding brand damage.
-
Promotion of universal ID solutions:
We recommend adoption of universal ID solutions such as LiveRamp and ID5. Even in the cookie-less era, we help ensure continued revenue generation from targeted advertising into the future.
