A Guide to Advertising on YouTube

YouTube is the preferred platform for viewers, being four times more likely to be used when searching for information about a brand, product or service than other platforms.
Here’s everything you need to know about YouTube video advertising:

What Are YouTube Ads?

YouTube ads are promotional videos that run before, during or after other videos on the platform. They are managed through Google Ads, which means advertisers can access the same data and targeting options as Google Ads.

YouTube advertising targets viewers based on their Google search histories and YouTube viewing habits. This allows brands to showcase video promotions alongside relevant content that millions of users actively engage with for entertainment or education.

Some YouTube ads are pay-per-view (PPV), charged when a viewer watches a few seconds of the ad or interacts with it, while others are pay-per-click (PPC) charged when a viewer clicks on the ad.

Types of YouTube Video Advertising

YouTube’s ad formats offer different positioning and length options to meet your business goals. See the types of YouTube video ads you can leverage based on your brand goals:

Skippable In-Stream Video Ads

These are pre-roll ads that appear before, during or after a video and can be skipped after 5 seconds. They appear on YouTube watch pages and the websites and apps of Google video partners.

Non-Skippable In-Stream Video Ads

These ads cannot be skipped and must be watched before the viewer can access the main video content. They run for 30 seconds or less and appear on YouTube watch pages and partner sites.

In-Feed Video Ads

In-feed video ads feature a thumbnail image and accompanying text. The size and appearance of the ad may vary depending on its placement, but they always encourage viewers to click and watch the video. Once clicked, the video plays on either the YouTube watch page or the channel homepage.

Bumper Ads

Bumper ads are short, memorable videos that cannot be skipped, lasting six seconds or less. They appear before, during or after other YouTube videos as well as on the websites and apps of Google video partners.

Overlay Ads

Overlay ads appear semi-transparently at the bottom of a video and can be closed by the viewer. They can include images, text or rich media content and are only accessible on desktop devices.

Masthead Ads

The Masthead ad on the desktop features a silent autoplay video at the top of the YouTube Home feed for up to 30 seconds. It can be in widescreen or 16:9 aspect ratio format, with an info panel on the right using assets from your channel.

What Targeting Options Are Available for YouTube Ads?

In addition to different ad formats, YouTube advertising offers various targeting capabilities for marketers.

Demographic Targeting

Target users based on demographics such as age, income, location, gender, parental status, job and more. With interest-based targeting, brands can reach users who have shown interest in specific topics, videos or channels.

Affinity Audiences

Target consumers who visit websites related to your product or service, engage with YouTube content related to your industry or watch specific types of videos.

Custom Intent Audiences

Reach YouTube audiences interested in your offerings by creating custom intent audiences based on search queries and keywords they use.

Lookalike Audiences

Use first-party data on YouTube Advertising to target individuals similar to those in your marketing or email lists. Share your list with a YouTube ads agency to reach similar audiences and showcase your ads effectively.

Website Retargeting

This targeting option allows marketers to show ads to users who have previously visited their website or taken a specific action. Using cookies, brands can track user behavior and target them with relevant ads.

YouTube Remarketing

Show ads to users who have previously interacted with your brand on YouTube. This could include viewers who have watched or engaged with your videos, subscribed to your channel or visited your page.

Customer Match/CRM Lists

Upload a list of email addresses or phone numbers and target those users on YouTube. This targeting option is also useful for retargeting customers based on their previous interactions with your brand.

TrueView for Shopping Ads

TrueView is an in-stream ad designed for eCommerce businesses. It allows marketers to showcase their products or services within the video ad and drive viewers directly to the product page for purchase.

Why Your Business Needs YouTube Ad Management

Over 5 billion videos are consumed on YouTube’s platform daily, making it a powerful tool for content distribution. The ease of sharing videos allows users to engage with their friends and family, creating opportunities for businesses to reach interested leads and grow their customer base.

Moreover, videos have proven to be an effective way of engaging audiences and delivering information. In fact, 81% of businesses use video as a marketing tool, with 69% claiming that video has boosted their sales.

YouTube marketing services also offer the following benefits:
