A Sharethrough and IPG study found that

native ads performed better than display

Consumers looked at native ads 53% more frequently than display ads.

25% more consumers were measured to look at

in-feed native ad placements (the most common editorial native ad format) than display ad units.

Native ads registered 18% higher lift in purchase intent

and 9% higher lift for brand affinity responses than banner ads.

32% of respondents said the native ad “is an ad I would

share with a friend of family member” vs. just 19% for display ads.

Editorial content related to the advertiser or its

brand values and presented in the editorial

flow, the content is relevant and has a value

for both the consumer and the publisher. Quebecor

Native Advertising refers to advertising

placements that reside outside of traditional ad

units and fit in within the media outlet's natural

user experience. Native Advertising only

makes sense within the context of a marketer

and a media partner: the marketer and media

partner work together to design promotional

integrations that fit brand objectives and at the

same time fit into the editorial design and

experiences of the media vehicle. IAB Canada

A brand or marketer funds a segment of

editorial content, and is in exchange called out

for doing so (via an immediately preceding

announcement, banner advertising or logo

placement). The brand gains adjacency with

the editorial content but it is not fully integrated

in the content, as would be the case with

Product Placements or Branded Content. IAB Canada
