Majestic Marketing Group is an Expert in OTT

OTT (Over-The-Top) video advertising refers to the practice of delivering video ads to viewers through internet-connected devices and platforms that bypass traditional cable or satellite TV services. OTT platforms include streaming services like Netflix, Hulu, Amazon Prime Video, Disney+, and many others. These platforms provide content over the internet, allowing viewers to watch on-demand content on various devices such as smart TVs, streaming media players, smartphones, tablets, and computers. 

• Targeted Advertising: OTT advertising enables highly targeted campaigns. Advertisers can leverage data and user profiles to deliver ads to specific demographics, interests, behaviors, and even geographic locations. This precision targeting increases the relevance of ads to viewers.

• Ad Formats: OTT platforms offer various ad formats, including pre-roll (before the content starts), mid-roll (during the content), and post-roll (after the content). Additionally, interactive and clickable ads are often used to engage viewers more effectively.

• Programmatic Advertising: Many OTT advertising transactions are done programmatically, using automated systems to buy and place ads. This allows for real-time bidding and optimization based on data insights.

• Creative Opportunities: OTT advertising provides creative opportunities for brands to tell engaging stories through video content. It often allows for longer ad durations compared to traditional TV, which can be beneficial for storytelling.

• Measurement and Analytics: OTT platforms offer robust measurement and analytics tools. Advertisers can track metrics such as viewability, completion rates, click-through rates, and conversion data, providing valuable insights into ad performance.

• Ad Skipping and Viewability: While some OTT platforms offer non-skippable ads, others allow viewers to skip ads after a few seconds. This dynamic can impact ad viewability and engagement, so advertisers must create compelling content to capture attention quickly. We only place on NON-SKIPPABLE inventory!

• Content Integration: Some OTT advertising is seamlessly integrated into the content, making it difficult for viewers to distinguish between ads and the main content. This integration can enhance the viewing experience but must be clearly disclosed to users.

• Frequency Capping: Advertisers can control how often the same viewer sees their ads to prevent overexposure, which can lead to ad fatigue and a negative user experience.

• OTT Device Diversity: OTT advertising reaches viewers on a wide range of devices, including smart TVs, gaming consoles, streaming media players, and mobile devices. Advertisers must consider device-specific requirements for creating and delivering ads.
