You have quality content and a highly engaged audience on your site. You are a line item on every Fortune 100’s marketing plan. You opened up your site to programmatic demand because of what the technology promised to offer: “target the right user, at the right time, for the right price.” And it has delivered on that promise for both you and your advertisers.

The advertising landscape has always been fast-moving and responsive to changing trends but never has it been more competitive. Despite more channels to advertise on than ever before, consumers’ tolerance for advertising is at an all-time low. In fact, 89% said they either disliked ads or did not engage with them. This decline in ads tolerance has been driven by a combination of factors. From sheer saturation of adverts – it’s estimated that we are exposed to 6,000 to 10,000 ads a day – to platforms that give us a choice to pay for a subscription in return for no ads.

IDC’s survey of senior advertising decision makers in large companies in the United States, the United Kingdom, and Germany found that digital measurement has become table stakes for anyone who wants to run mobile marketing campaigns. There is little wonder why: measurement has proven to significantly increase return on advertising spend (ROAS) and the ability to retain advertisers’ competitiveness. While advertisers in all three countries reported that vendors delivered well on the measurement features they desired, they also felt there was room for improvement in terms of delivering on most privacy protection and compliance features. This likely was not due to vendors falling short but simply because privacy and compliance have become such top-of-mind issues.
