MEDIA KUNDLI #5- YOUTUBE

Posted on March 9, 2022March 9, 2022Author Vaishali Tripathi 0

YouTube advertising is every brand’s first choice. But is it a step in the right
direction for your brand?


TOP 3 YOUTUBE ADVERTISING FACTS

 * Currently, YouTube has 2 billion global users. It has more than 2 Billion
   monthly active users, these also include more than 30 Million paid
   subscribers including YouTube premium and music services.
 * (Source- Backlinko.com)



 * India has the most YouTube users, with 225 Million users. The number of
   YouTube users in India is estimated to reach almost 833.03 Million by 2025.
   (Source- www.statista.com)





 * Globally, 81% of total active Youtube users are between the age group of
   18-35, with 53.9% male and 46.1% female users. (Source- blog.hootsuite.com)


TOP ADVERTISING OPTIONS ON YOUTUBE

 1. Skippable in-stream video ads

These ads can be put either before (pre roll) a video or during it (mid roll).
These ads play for a duration of minimum 5 seconds and then the viewer has the
choice to skip them. In general, the entire video ad needs to be a minimum of 12
seconds, but under 3 minutes.

One of the perks of this type of YouTube ad is that you’ll only get charged when
someone watches at least 30 seconds, the entire ad (for any ad under 30
seconds), or if they click on it, whichever comes first. These ads are
accompanied by a banner ad at the top right of the screen that remains in place
even if even if a user skips the video ad. (See image below)

2. Non-skippable in-stream video as

These ads can also play right before a video or during it. The only difference
is that there is no skip button. Considering that a high percentage- some 76% of
people, skip the ads, the non-skippable ads work best when your brand really
needs to raise awareness and doesn’t want to risk getting hundreds and thousands
of ad skips. The way that these ads charge advertisers is that charges are
incurred per impression, more specifically, per 1000 views (CPM). 

3. Bumper ads

Bumper ads are six-second long, non-skippable video ads that play before the
actual video. These ads are perfect for anyone who has a simple message to get
across and doesn’t need the full production of a minutes-long video. Again,
these ads work great for any awareness or reach related objective like promoting
an event, or driving brand reach and frequency (Google actually analyzed 300
bumper ads and found that 90% created a big lift in ad recall)  (See image
below)

4. Discovery ads

Similar to Google search ads, Discovery ads show up alongside organic search
results. These ads help us view YouTube as a search engine. Like Google text
ads, YouTube’s Discovery Ads also say “Ad” in a box to let users know they are
paid for results.

Discovery ads are composed of a thumbnail image and three lines of text. When
interested people click on the ad, they’re sent through to your video page or
YouTube channel. These ads can show on the search results page, video watch
page, and YouTube homepage which gives them quite a bit of visibility. These ads
are more akin to the ads you see on Google’s search results page. (see image
below)



5. Non-video ads

YouTube also offers non-video ads for advertisers without a budget for video.
One can choose to serve a display ad on the right hand side of results while a
video is playing. This ad features an image, some text to the right of the
image, and a button to click to your website. (See the image below)

Also, one can serve a banner ad overlay that pops up during a video from a
channel that’s decided to monetize. These non-video ads charge money on a
cost-per-click basis. Non video ads are of two types:

 * Display ads: The appear on the right-hand sidebar, and include an image and
   text, alongside a CTA with a link to your website.
 * In-video overlay ads: The appear floating on top of video content from
   monetized YouTube channels.

6. Sponsored card

Sponsored cards display content that may be relevant to your video such as
products featured in the video. Viewers will see a teaser for the card for a few
seconds. (See image below) They can also click on the icon in the top right hand
corner of the video to browse the cards. These ads are available on desktops and
mobile devices. The size of the card vary and are used for brand awareness,
increased engagement, product and brand recognition. 

6. Masthead ads

A YouTube masthead is a digital billboard placed on YouTube’s homepage for 24
hours. It generally reached roughly 60 million people and comes in three
different as formats- Standard, Expandable and Tandem. They are available on
desktop, mobile and TV. (See image below)

Masthead ads are only available on a reservation basis, you are charged on a
cost per day (CPD) or cost per thousand impressions basis. You can work with the
Google advertising team to get a rate estimate and campaign impression goals.
Use this format when you want to drive awareness for a new product or service or
reach a massive audience in a short period of time for example a sales event. 




TOP TARGETING OPTIONS ON YOUTUBE

1. Keyword targeting– Depending on your video ad format, you can show your video
ads based on words or phrases (keywords) related to a YouTube video, YouTube
channel, or type of website that your audience is interested in or searching
for.

2. Demographic targeting: Choose the age, gender, parental status, or household
income of the audience you want to reach. Detailed demographics includes shared
traits, such as college students, homeowners, or new parents.

3. Interest based targeting: Pick from available audience categories to reach
people interested in certain topics, even when they may be visiting pages about
other topics. 

4. Affinity segment targeting: Targeting people who already have a strong
interest in relevant topics.

5. Life event targeting: Reach potential customers on YouTube when purchase
behavior shifts and brand preferences change during life milestones like moving,
graduating from college, or getting married.

6. In-market segment targeting: Select from these audiences to find customers
who are researching products and actively considering buying a service or
product similar to those offered by you.

7. Your data segment targeting: targeting based on people’s past interactions
with your videos, video ads, or YouTube channel. You can also show ads to people
who’ve interacted with your website or mobile app.

8. Placement targeting: Target channels, videos, apps, websites, or placements
within websites. For example, you can target an entire high traffic blog or just
the homepage of a popular news site. Placements can include: YouTube channels,
YouTube videos, Websites on the Google Display Network, Apps on the Google
Display Network.

9. Topic targeting: Target your video ads to specific topics on YouTube and the
Google Display Network. Topic targeting lets you reach a broad range of videos,
channels, and websites related to the topics you select. For example, if you
target the “Automotive” topic, then your ad will show on YouTube to people
watching videos about cars.

10. Device targeting: Target users using computers, smart phones, mobile
devices, and TV screen devices like Chromecast.




TOP REASONS TO GO FOR YOUTUBE ADVERTISING

1. Incredible audience Reach: It’s no secret that YouTube is an advertiser
goldmine. It cates to a wide variety of audience- which coupled with the
in-depth targeting options ends up providing an incredible audience reach.

2. Detailed Targeting: YouTube offers a range of targeting options based on age,
geography, employment type, work experience, etc. Brands and advertisers looking
to target specific audience can hence, benefit greatly from the myriad targeting
options made available by the platform.

3. Influence On Purchasing Behavior: Studies have shown that YouTube has a major
impact on purchasing behavior. According to the YouTube insight report, 72% of
auto-vehicle purchasers, 62% of smartphone purchasers, and 66% of beauty product
purchasers revealed that YouTube influenced their purchases. 

The best thing about the platform is that it helps consumers visualize how a
product could fit into their lifestyle. Your content can directly influence the
purchasing decisions of your customers.  (Source: DigitalMarketing.org)

4. Real time reporting: YouTube provides accurate measurement on every aspect of
the ad campaign. Real-time reporting is key to evaluating your advertising
strategy to ensure you’re getting the most from your budget. You can also track
video viewership which shows how often an ad is watched and to what length.
These metrics make it simple to evaluate how well your ad is performing and
where improvements need to be made.
