  • Three strategies for ad targeting are demographic, behavioral, and contextual.

Demographic Targeting

  • Demographics are the characteristics of groups of people.
  • Includes age, location, language, income, etc.
  • Advertisers use demographic data to target specific audience groups with shared characteristics.

Behavioral Targeting

  • Based on user's online behavior.
  • Collects data like browsing history, search terms, time spent on pages, etc.
  • Used to personalize ads and target customers interested in specific products or services.
  • "Retargeting" is when ads are shown to people who have previously visited a website or expressed interest.
  • Two types of retargeting: pixel-based and list-based.
    • Pixel-based: real-time ad display based on website interactions; more common
    • List-based: uses email lists or other contact data for ad targeting; more customizable but less immediate

Contextual Targeting

  • Ads placed on websites based on the content of those pages.
  • Aims to show ads related to the topic of the webpage.
