id=\"h-what-is-video-header-bidding\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_is_Video_Header_Bidding\"><\/span>What is Video Header Bidding?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>It&#8217;s an automated process of making a publisher&#8217;s video <a href=\"https:\/\/www.adpushup.com\/blog\/ad-inventory-management-tips\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">ad inventory<\/a> available to multiple demand sources so that their ad inventory gets the highest bid.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The process is designed as a solution to the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.adpushup.com\/blog\/header-bidding-vs-waterfall-comparison\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">traditional waterfall process<\/a>, which was earlier used to sell video ad inventory. In waterfall technique, a publisher\u2019s video ad server is required to make ad calls to demand partners one after another, causing latency and reduced yield.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To understand how it works, let\u2019s first understand the technologies used in it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Technologies_Used_in_Header_Bidding_for_Video_Ads\"><\/span><strong>Technologies Used<\/strong> in Header Bidding for Video Ads<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The complex mechanism of video bidding happens in a snap. Thanks to several modern technologies and advanced algorithms, publishing websites like yours can display ads in seconds.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Following is the list of video bidding solutions:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3><strong>Video SSPs\/Ad exchanges<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Video SSP (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.adpushup.com\/blog\/what-is-supply-side-platform\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Supply-side platform<\/a>) is no different from any other SSP. At its core, it helps you sell your ad inventories in exchange for ad revenue. However, the \u201cvideo\u201d in video SSP attracts more video ad demands.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3><strong>Video Player<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The video player&#8217;s role is to receive the ad creatives from the advertiser and display the result to the viewer. However, in some cases, if you are unable to get an in-house JS video player, you can always use third-party video player alternatives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3><strong>Video Ad Server<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The video <a href=\"https:\/\/www.adpushup.com\/blog\/the-ultimate-guide-to-ad-servers\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">ad server<\/a> generates video tags, which can be further divided into two parts: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.adpushup.com\/blog\/what-are-vast-tags-and-how-to-create-them\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">VAST<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.adpushup.com\/blog\/vast-vs-vpaid\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">VPAID<\/a>. It also monitors video <a href=\"https:\/\/www.adpushup.com\/blog\/ad-impressions\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">ad impressions<\/a> and creates video ad inventories.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3><strong>Header Bidding Wrapper<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>A header bidding wrapper contains the framework needed to conduct the bidding process. It wraps the whole process by running the bidding, picking the winner, and passing the bid responses to the server.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These major video header bidding solutions help make the whole process as smooth as butter.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_Does_Video_Header_Bidding_Work\"><\/span><strong>How Does Video Header Bidding Work?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Let\u2019s understand it\u2019s working through a video header bidding example. You run <a href=\"https:\/\/www.adpushup.com\/blog\/types-of-video-ads\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">video ads<\/a> on your website. The incoming visitor triggers the prebid.js code in the website, which further signals the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.adpushup.com\/blog\/top-dsps\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">DSPs<\/a> and&nbsp; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.adpushup.com\/blog\/what-is-an-ad-exchange\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">ad exchanges<\/a>&nbsp; to place their bids simultaneously. The publisher-side server would then select the highest bid for displaying the ad.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Video header bidding sounds a lot like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.adpushup.com\/blog\/a-simpler-guide-to-header-bidding-technology\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">header bidding<\/a> in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.adpushup.com\/blog\/web-banner-stats\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">display advertising<\/a>. However, the working process is quite different.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Implementation\"><\/span>Implementation<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>As discussed, video header bidding is conducted using two methods: client-side and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.adpushup.com\/blog\/server-to-server-header-bidding-everything-you-need-to-know\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">server-side<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3><strong>Client-Side<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>On the client side, the header bidding wrapper is placed inside the website\u2019s source code page. When the visiting user triggers the prebid.js code, the header bidding wrapper calls upon ad exchanges to bid on the impression. Upon selecting the bid, it\u2019s sent to the ad server, which delivers it to the video player to display the ad.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3><strong>Server-Side<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Despite sharing the same objectives, both methods differ in where the bidding process occurs and how it is managed. Unlike the previous method, this time, the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.adpushup.com\/blog\/what-is-bid-request\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">bid request<\/a> is sent to an external server or technology platform. The server sends the bids to the advertisers. Then, advertisers place their bids, and the server selects the highest bid, and the video ad is served to the user.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There\u2019s another way advertisers pay for their ads to publishers. It\u2019s called No Header in <font color=\"#000000\"><span style=\"background-color: rgb(225, 190, 231);\">h<\/span><\/font>eader bidding for video advertising.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3><strong>No Header in Video Heading Bidding<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>As the name suggests, \u201cno header\u201d in video bidding is when the bidding process surpasses or avoids the header section of the webpage altogether.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>How are the ads placed, then?<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Well, the auction and ad serving processes are managed entirely on the server side or through other mechanisms, without the need for a script in the webpage header.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The process is the same as the previous ones, except for two stages: the video player\/ad server directly initiates the ad request, and the bid is sent to the external server.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Top_5_Benefits_of_Video_Header_Bidding\"><\/span><strong>Top 5 Benefits of Video Header Bidding<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Video bidding is an essential tool for publishers to increase revenue, improve ad quality, and enhance user experience. Here\u2019s how <font color=\"#000000\"><span style=\"background-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.2);\">i<\/span><\/font>t can benefit your business.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Increased Ad Revenue: <\/strong>The simultaneous bidding by multiple ad exchanges increases the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.adpushup.com\/blog\/how-to-increase-auction-pressure-and-improve-ad-yield-in-google-adx\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">bid pressure<\/a>, increasing the publishers&#8217; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.adpushup.com\/ecpm-calculator\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">eCPMs<\/a>. The highest bid that meets or exceeds the floor price wins, maximizing revenue through real-time competition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>User Experience:<\/strong> It increases the rendering speed of a video as the auctions run parallel to the loading video player. This reduced page latency, improving <a href=\"https:\/\/www.adpushup.com\/blog\/find-the-balance-between-user-experience-and-ads\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">user experience<\/a>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Better Ad Fill Rate: <\/strong>The more publishers use header bidding in video ads, the more demand partners it will attract for publishers. Ultimately, more demand partners will help you have a better <a href=\"https:\/\/www.adpushup.com\/blog\/ad-fill-rate\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">ad fill rate<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Transparency:<\/strong> Header bidding analytics allows you to analyze the demand partners based on metrics like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.adpushup.com\/blog\/ecpm-vs-cpm\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">eCPM<\/a>, win rate, bid load times, etc. You can also polish your content strategy by connecting it with Google Analytics\/Google Ads Manager. Through this, you can identify the revenue and engagement-generating pages and work on them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Better Ad Quality:<\/strong> It also helps to improve ad quality. Header bidding for videos allows for more precise <a href=\"https:\/\/www.adpushup.com\/blog\/types-of-ad-targeting\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">ad targeting<\/a>, ensuring the ad displayed is more relevant to the user.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"3_Downsides_of_Video_Header_Bidding\"><\/span><strong>3 Downsides of Video Header Bidding<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Increased Complexity:<\/strong> It can be more complex than traditional <a href=\"https:\/\/www.adpushup.com\/blog\/top-programmatic-advertising-platforms\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">programmatic advertising<\/a> methods, requiring additional setup and technical knowledge. This may result in higher implementation costs, longer setup times, and a steeper learning curve for publishers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Increased Page Load Times:<\/strong> It requires additional scripts to be loaded on the page, which can increase page load times. This can result in slower load times for users, potentially leading to a negative user experience and increased bounce rates.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Limited Demand Sources:<\/strong> While <font color=\"#000000\"><span style=\"background-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.2);\">i<\/span><\/font>t allows publishers to work with multiple demand sources simultaneously, not all demand sources may be compatible with the technology. This can limit the number of potential buyers and result in missed revenue opportunities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"6_Data-Driven_Practices_for_Video_Header_Bidding\"><\/span><strong>6 Data-Driven Practices for Video Header Bidding<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3><strong>Test &amp; Optimize<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>First, regularly test and optimize your bidding setup to maximize revenue and deliver the best user experience. Test different demand partners, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.adpushup.com\/blog\/what-is-floor-price\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">floor prices<\/a>, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.adpushup.com\/innovative-ad-formats\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">ad formats<\/a> to see what works best for your audience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3><strong>Set Realistic Floor Prices<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Second, aim high with your floor prices, but setting realistic prices is also important. Setting prices too high may result in fewer bids, while setting too low may leave money on the table. Finding the right balance is key.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3><strong>Use a Reliable Header Bidding Wrapper<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Choosing a reliable header bidding wrapper ensures your bidding setup works efficiently. A suitable wrapper should be easy to implement, provide accurate reporting, and integrate well with your existing ad server.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3><strong>Choose Your Demand Partners Carefully<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Before you select a demand partner, it is recommended that you research and choose partners with a good reputation for delivering quality ads and a high fill rate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3><strong>Focus on User Experience<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>While maximizing revenue is essential, it\u2019s also important to prioritize the user experience. Monitor ad load times, frequency, and relevance to ensure that users are not bombarded with too many or irrelevant ads.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3><strong>Monitor Ad Quality<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s important to monitor the quality of the ads served to your users to ensure they are not offensive or misleading. Use ad quality tools to help filter out low-quality ads and maintain a high standard of ad quality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Video_Advertising_Header_Bidding_Statistics\"><\/span><strong>Video <\/strong>Advertising <strong>Header Bidding Statistics<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>According to a <a href=\"https:\/\/pubmatic.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Video_Advertising_Requires_New_Monetization_Strategies_TLP.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">PubMatic report on video advertising<\/a>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>64.2% of publishers struggle with a lack of technology\/tools to optimize their ad inventory.
