It&#8217;s a simple matter of supply and demand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With increased competition, auction pressure affects:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol><li><strong>Bid value\/CPM:<\/strong> Buyers are likely to bid higher when there are many other bidders trying to claim the inventory, resulting in higher CPM.<\/li><li><strong>Fill rate:<\/strong> More participation in an auction leads to more bids. It reduces the chances of unsold inventory and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.adpushup.com\/blog\/ad-fill-rate\/\">increases the fill rate<\/a>.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_to_Increase_Auction_Pressure_in_AdX\"><\/span>How to Increase Auction Pressure in AdX<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Getting more competition within the auction is the first step to increasing auction pressure. For that, publishers must limit the restrictions placed on buyers that are eligible for bidding on their inventory.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here are some ways that can be performed in AdX on a site level:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"1_Limit_Category_Blocking\"><\/span>1. Limit Category Blocking<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Publishers block certain ad\/advertiser categories to prevent ads belonging to that source. They do this to protect their website from low quality or irrelevant ads. However, excessive category blocking reduces the number of ads from the auction. This, in turn, reduces the final bid values.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Allowing blocked categories can enable publishers to increase competition in Ad Exchange and build auction pressure. Although, it still makes sense to reconsider all the blocked categories before unblocking them all.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The steps:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol><li>Go to <strong>Rules<\/strong> Tab and select <strong>Blocking<\/strong> on the menu. Here you\u2019ll see a summary of each category blocked for each rule.<\/li><li>Click on the rule to <strong>Unblock Category<\/strong>. Next, hit <strong>X<\/strong> present next to the category name.&nbsp;<\/li><li>Consider moving the block from Everything to specific rules to be able to show inventory to less restricted sites.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"2_Eliminate_Advertiser_URL_Blocks\"><\/span>2. Eliminate Advertiser URL Blocks<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Similar to category blocking, publishers often block entire advertiser URLs to debar ads from those particular advertisers; with an intent to prevent unwanted, poor quality ads. Blocking too many advertiser URLs, just like category blocking, reduces competition. Consider removing a few, if not all advertiser URLs, to allow more advertisers to participate in the auction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The steps:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol><li>Go to <strong>Rules<\/strong> Tab and select <strong>Blocking<\/strong> in the menu. Here you\u2019ll see the summary of each URL blocked for each rule.<\/li><li>Click on the rule and <strong>delete<\/strong> to rule to <strong>unblock the advertiser<\/strong>.<\/li><li>Consider moving the block from <strong>Everything<\/strong> to specific rules to be able to show inventory to less restricted sites.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"3_Allow_Branding\"><\/span>3. Allow Branding<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Buyers are often interested in branded inventory because it is considered premium; hence they are also open to making higher bids to secure impressions. By enabling branded inventory in AdX, publishers are more likely to fetch higher CPMs. The Reporting section in AdX keeps publishers updated on how the ads are performing after being converted to branded.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The steps:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol><li>Go to <strong>Rules<\/strong> tab.<\/li><li>Select a rule and click <strong>Edit<\/strong>.&nbsp;<\/li><li>Scroll down to find <strong>Branded<\/strong>.<\/li><li>Set a minimum price.<\/li><li>Hit <strong>Save<\/strong> to activate branded for the rule.&nbsp;<\/li><li>Perform the same steps for each rule.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"4_Ad_Technology_Opt-in\"><\/span>4. Ad Technology Opt-in<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Ad Exchange buyers are allowed to use many ad technology vendors that use tools such as ad servers, research technologies, and remarketing. Partners certified by Google are opted-in by default. By opting in to try other third-party ad tech companies, publishers can explore the opportunities for revenue growth being offered by these independent tech providers that support AdX.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The steps:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol><li>Go to <strong>Rules<\/strong> tab and select <strong>Opt In<\/strong>.&nbsp;<\/li><li>Locate the Everyone rule to allow the technologies you want to run in your account.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"5_Use_Multiple_Ad_TypesFormats\"><\/span>5. Use Multiple Ad Types\/Formats<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Enabling both text and image ad formats at the same time makes them compete for the ad inventory and also improves the match rate. The ad slot, not confined to just one ad format, has more ad format options to compete and fill the slot. This, in turn, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.adpushup.com\/blog\/what-is-ecpm\/\">increases the eCPM<\/a>, thereby increasing the auction pressure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Moreover, when <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/support.google.com\/admanager\/answer\/82236?hl=en\" target=\"_blank\">creating a line item<\/a>, creating a multi-size creative also helps improve ad yield. Why? A multi-size creative in intended for line items with <a href=\"https:\/\/support.google.com\/admanager\/answer\/6246868?hl=en\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\">multi-size pricing in Ad Exchange<\/a>. It enables bid requests for all specified ad sizes that compete against each other.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The steps:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol><li>Go to <strong>Rules<\/strong> tab and select <strong>Ad Styles and Backup Ads<\/strong> to see the current ads allowed under <strong>Ad Styles<\/strong>.<\/li><li>Click <strong>Edit<\/strong> and select <strong>Image\/Rich Media Ads and Text Ads<\/strong> under <strong>Ad Types<\/strong> to enable both text and display ads.&nbsp;<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Conclusion\"><\/span>Conclusion<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Apart from methods specific to Ad Exchange, there are some universal ways which enable publishers to increase auction pressure:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol><li>Google AdWords is probably the largest buyer of inventory. Therefore, publishers should leverage AdWords as a buyer to make sure their inventory is targeted through them.<\/li><li>Publishers using ad servers can deploy more demand sources using <a href=\"https:\/\/www.adpushup.com\/header-bidding-guide\/\">header bidding<\/a>. In case there\u2019s no ad server being used, you can consider DFP.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>The steps explained here enable publishers to expand their advertiser-base. The end goal is to increase demand, improve CPM, and increase ad revenue. <\/p>\n","protected":false,"gt_translate_keys":[{"key":"rendered","format":"html"}]},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In real-life auctions, the seller sets a starting bid on the item that is being auctioned.
