Many of a company’s potential customers visit blogs, forums and other websites that they find interesting or useful. Display advertising refers to advertisements which are displayed on a third-party site, or a site that is not the site of the company. Display advertising refers to banners, boxes, interactive adverts, video adverts, overlays and other similar adverts that are linked to the landing page or website.
Display advertising creates a greater awareness of the companies brand as well as generating a highly targeted traffic that may lead to further leads or sales. Payment for digital advertising is usually based on cost per impression (CPM), which is usually more cost effective compared to cost per click (CPC) which is used in Pay per click advertising.
