It was only after <a href=\"https:\/\/www.adpushup.com\/blog\/what-are-iab-standard-ads-why-are-they-important\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">IAB<\/a> developed the <a href=\"https:\/\/iabtechlab.com\/standards\/digital-audio-ad-serving-template-daast\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Digital Audio Ad Serving template<\/a> that the majority of the audio partners have now started using it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Some years back, IAB also updated its VAST protocol, successfully bridging the gaps between the creative renderings.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The function of the VAST protocol is to define the placement procedure for the linear audio ads. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These are those ads that appear after, before, or in the middle of any audio content. By rule, they accompany these formats:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3><strong>Companion Ads<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>These are static banners containing Call-to-Action or CTA and logo appearing while streaming music. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3><strong>Podcast Ads<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>These are commercial audio ads that can be placed within the podcasts.

You will also get a chance to create long-term relationships with this audience, which will gradually take fruition of a higher Customer Lifetime Value or CLV over a period of time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3>Better Targeting  Options for Marketers <\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Following the trend of digital marketing in general, audio programmatic ads also help marketers optimize their targeting. Data procured from several audio partners can be used as leverage for targeting playlists, moments, moods, genres, etc. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These pieces of information can be used for targeting your audience, which will be based on demographics like online behavior, household income, and locations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3>Improves Brand Awareness <\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Nielson Media lab reports that audio ads are supposed to have a 24% higher recall rate compared to other traditional ads. The specialty of audio is that it usually demands the full attention of the listeners. As a result, they tend to feel an intimate connection to whatever they are hearing. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So as far as listeners and brands are concerned, the receptiveness and the connections become quite better. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3>Seamless User Experience <\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Here ads are delivered one after another, and that means that the interaction between the audience and the user ads is guaranteed. This way, the listeners will be listening and concentrating on your ad only and will not be facing any distractions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3>No Risk of Ad Blockers<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Ad-blocking tools have not yet invaded the digital audio space. In fact, on the contrary, music streaming services offer special subscriptions, which are ad-free. The point to remember here is that most listeners, be it for music or podcasts, stream content that is ad-enabled. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This way, media buyers will be able to reach a valuable audience and grow ad revenues.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-background\" style=\"background-color:#fff1f5;font-size:20px\"><strong>Take a Look at: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.adpushup.com\/blog\/the-best-ad-networks-for-publishers\/\">22 Best Ad Networks for Publishers [in 2023]<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-5-top-audio-ad-networks-for-publishers-in-2023\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"5_Top_Audio_Ad_Networks_for_Publishers_in_2023\"><\/span>5 Top Audio Ad Networks for Publishers in 2023<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Below, we have provided the details of the 5 best Audio Ad Networks for publishers in 2023:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3>Instreamatic &#8211; Voice Marketing Platform<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/instreamatic.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">Instreamatic<\/a> is a voice AI platform which is designed to serve intelligent ads that people will be able to engage with.

Here are some of the trends that you should be aware of:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3>Growing Digital Audio Listenership<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>In the year 2020, more than a good <a href=\"https:\/\/www.insiderintelligence.com\/content\/impressive-resilience-of-digital-audio\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">70% of adults in the US<\/a> have been reported to have listened to audio content at least once in one month. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In 2022, around <a href=\"https:\/\/www.insiderintelligence.com\/content\/us-population-listens-digital-audio\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">66% of the population of the US<\/a> of age 12 and older have listened to audio content at least once in one week. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There has been an increase of 5% in this category compared to 2021. This evidently proves the growing adoption of this channel.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3>Smart Speakers are Becoming Common<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Voice assistants and smart speakers are nowadays filling our houses, and the trend is only growing. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In fact, by the end of 2022, as much as 1\/3rd of US households will have smart speakers, and around <a href=\"https:\/\/www.insiderintelligence.com\/content\/us-voice-assistants-smart-speakers-forecast-2022\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">44% of the adults<\/a> in the US will resort to voice assistants. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is a clear indication of the fact that smart speakers are becoming more and more common every day.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3>Marketers are Using Programmatic Audio Ads as a Leverage<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>As far as B2B marketers are concerned, the audio ads format, in combination with the listening habits of the users, make this version of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.adpushup.com\/blog\/programmatic-advertising\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">programmatic ads <\/a>a perfect option for targeting the interests, needs, and challenges of an enterprise.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is being leveraged more by B2B marketers because, with this channel, they can increase brand awareness, target niche audiences, retarget qualified B2B users as well as educate the target audience.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-our-take-on-programmatic-audio-ads\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Our_Take_on_Programmatic_Audio_Ads\"><\/span>Our Take on Programmatic Audio Ads<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>It is true that programmatic audio ads function better as a standalone campaign. But, they can also sufficiently complement your other programmatic channels quite successfully.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Considering audio is devoid of the need for screens and is emotionally engaging too, it attracts the listeners in undistracted moments. It automatically becomes ideal for adding to the multi-channel strategy that you have already adopted. Use the audio to work on brand awareness and convey brand personality. It would generate revenues better than you could fathom.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"FAQ_%E2%80%93_Programmatic_Audio_Ads_for_Publishers\"><\/span>FAQ &#8211; Programmatic Audio Ads for Publishers<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"schema-faq wp-block-yoast-faq-block\"><div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1676125033940\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">1) <strong>What is Programmatic Audio Advertising?<\/strong><br\/><\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">Programmatic audio advertising refers to the automated buying and selling of audio advertising spots through a software platform.
