Online video has become a dominant force in the world of advertising. Brands and marketers are constantly seeking ways to maximize their reach and engagement through video content – making it essential to optimize ad placements to ensure they are seen to completion.  A lot of money goes into creating these video ads for them not to be seen.

To address this challenge, Peer39 has OLV Completion Rate Categories, for targeting placements based on historical completion rates, paving the way for more effective targeting and improved ad performance.

The Power of Completion Rates

Completion rates, a vital metric in the world of online video advertising, reflect the percentage of viewers who watch an ad in its entirety. This KPI is a key indicator of ad engagement and the effectiveness of the content in capturing the audience's attention. Higher completion rates often translate to a better return on investment for advertisers, as that can mean the message is likely seen by the target audience.

Why Completion Rate Categories Matter

• Optimized Engagement: Advertisers can focus efforts on desirable placements, ensuring that their message is seen by an engaged audience maximizing efficiency.
• Budget Efficiency: Advertisers can allocate budgets more effectively by targeting placements with the right completion rates, ensuring resources are well spent. 
• Enhanced ROI: Higher completion rates lead to increased ad effectiveness, ultimately translating to a higher return on investment for advertisers.
