Streaming TV Advertising

Redefining Television Advertising

In the past, if you wanted to advertise your business on TV, you had to spend a lot of money on a commercial that would air during prime time.

But now, with streaming TV advertising, you can target your audience more accurately and get your message out there for a fraction of the cost.

With over 250 streaming services in our arsenal, we can get your TV commercial in front of your ideal audience. Showcase your spots based on behavior, interest, location, or demo and start reaching those binge watchers, cord cutters, and on-demand streamers.

What is OTT advertising?

OTT stands for “over the top” and refers to the delivery of content via the internet, without the need for a traditional cable or satellite TV subscription. Some of the most popular streaming platforms include Netflix, Hulu, and Amazon Prime Video. With OTT advertising, you can place your ad on any of these streaming platforms and reach a wider audience than you would with traditional TV advertising.

Why use OTT advertising?

There are many benefits of using OTT advertising to reach your target audience. OTT advertising is more affordable than traditional TV advertising. You only need to pay for the ads that are actually seen by your target audience, rather than paying for airtime on a specific channel.

OTT advertising is also more effective than traditional TV advertising. You can use data from streaming platforms to target your ads to specific demographics, interests, and even zip codes. This ensures that your ad reaches the people who are most likely to be interested in your product or service.

OTT advertising is more flexible than traditional TV advertising. You can run your ad for a specific amount of time, or you can choose to have it play only during certain days or times. This allows you to control your budget and make sure that your ad reaches your target audience when they are most likely to be watching streaming content. Plus, with streaming TV, you can track how many people are watching your ad and where they’re watching it from. That way, you can see what’s working and adjust your campaign accordingly.

The difference between CTV and OTT

There is a lot of confusion out there about connected TV (CTV) and over-the-top (OTT) advertising. So let’s clear things up. CTV refers to any TV that is connected to the internet, whether it’s through a set-top box, game console, smart TV, or streaming device. OTT, on the other hand, is a type of video content that is streamed directly over the internet, without going through a traditional cable or satellite provider. Simply put, OTT refers to content, CTV refers to a specific device. Another thing to note is that although CTVs are among the most common ways of consuming OTT content; laptops, desktops, and mobiles also support OTT streaming but don’t fall under the CTV category.

AVOD vs. SVOD

There are two main types of OTT content: ad-supported video on demand (AVOD) and subscription video on demand (SVOD). AVOD platforms like YouTube and Pluto TV offer free, ad-supported content. SVOD platforms like Netflix and Amazon Prime Video require a monthly subscription fee but don’t include ads.

If you’re looking to place your ad on an OTT platform, it’s important to know the difference between AVOD and SVOD. With AVOD, you only need to pay for the ads that are actually seen by viewers. With SVOD, you pay a monthly fee regardless of how many people watch your ad.
