Simply put, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.adpushup.com\/blog\/ctv-vs-ott\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">CTV<\/a> ad networks act as intermediaries by connecting brands with OTT platforms to display their ads.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, there\u2019s a slight difference between OTT advertising and CTV advertising. The former encompasses advertising on all streaming platforms, regardless of the device used (mobile\/desktop\/CTV). The latter is a subset of OTT marketing that involves advertising on connected TV devices like smart TVs, gaming consoles, or streaming sticks (or CTV campaigns).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Connected TV vs. OTT: <\/strong>A Connected TV is a device that streams OTT content. On the other hand, OTT (over-the-top) is a means of distributing content without cables or satellite.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Connected TV vs. Linear TV:<\/strong> CTV is a subset of OTT streaming devices where users can watch content on-demand. On the other hand, traditional linear TV is cable TV with a fixed schedule for broadcasting programs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-how-does-ctv-advertising-work\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_Does_CTV_Advertising_Work\"><\/span>How Does CTV Advertising Work?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>As mentioned above, CTV campaigns are designed to serve ads exclusively on connected TVs. However, with OTT campaigns, the ads are displayed on all available channels that can stream the OTT content. This can include tablets, mobiles, laptops, etc. CTV advertising campaigns work the same way as any other programmatic ad campaign.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.adpushup.com\/blog\/ad-inventory-management-tips\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">inventory<\/a> is aggregated from top CTV providers that offer ad-supported content, like Disney, Netflix, Discovery+, Hulu, etc. Companies like Roku and Amazon make <a href=\"https:\/\/www.adpushup.com\/blog\/sell-ad-space\/\">ad space<\/a> directly available through the CTV manufacturers. Then, the user data is compiled to set the targeting parameters, an auction takes place, and the ad is served.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Let\u2019s understand this through a connected TV advertising example &#8211; Pluto TV. When there is a commercial break, the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.adpushup.com\/blog\/the-ultimate-guide-to-ad-servers\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">ad server<\/a> sends an ad <a href=\"https:\/\/www.adpushup.com\/blog\/what-is-bid-request\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">request<\/a> to the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.adpushup.com\/blog\/what-is-supply-side-platform\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">supply-side platforms<\/a> CTVs work with. The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.adpushup.com\/blog\/top-supply-side-platforms\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">SSPs<\/a> then send the automated signals to the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.adpushup.com\/blog\/what-is-demand-side-platform\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">demand-side platforms<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Each <a href=\"https:\/\/www.adpushup.com\/blog\/top-dsps\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">DSP<\/a> decides the best, relevant ad that fits the user\u2019s profile. The bids are then forwarded to the SSP, which determines the winning bid and sends the corresponding ad to Pluto TV.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-list-of-5-best-connected-tv-ad-networks\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"List_of_5_Best_Connected_TV_Ad_Networks\"><\/span>List of 5 Best Connected TV Ad Networks<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"h-1-amazon-ads-sponsored-tv\">1.

Some of them are:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"h-1-expanded-reach\">1. Expanded Reach<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>With Smart TVs dominating households, it\u2019s natural for brands to shift from linear TV marketing to CTV marketing. Moreover, CTV advertising allows brands to <strong>reach millennials, Gen-Z, and Gen-Alpha<\/strong>, who are more likely to consume content via OTT. Advertisers can also benefit from co-viewing, where multiple people may see the ad simultaneously, increasing ad exposure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"h-2-next-to-nil-fraud\">2. Next-to-nil Fraud<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Connected TV advertising is still a budding programmatic advertising branch, making it <strong>ad-fraud-resistant<\/strong>. This makes it difficult to tamper with, ensuring <strong>heightened <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/resources.adpushup.com\/inside-the-brand-safety-playbook\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>brand safety<\/strong><\/a>. Adding to the point, many CTV ad networks use SmartTech, like AI and Blockchain, to prevent <a href=\"https:\/\/www.adpushup.com\/blog\/types-of-ad-fraud\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">ad fraud<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"h-3-advanced-targeting-capabilities-and-personalization\">3. Advanced Targeting Capabilities and Personalization<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Unlike traditional TV setups, CTV advertising platforms use first-party and third-party data to create <strong>sophisticated targeting options<\/strong> for ads to reach the right audience. Apart from demographics, the targeting options include geolocation using IP address, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.adpushup.com\/blog\/contextual-ad-networks\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">contextual<\/a> targeting, behavioral targeting, and time-of-the-day targeting.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"h-4-no-bot-traffic\">4. No Bot Traffic<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Advertisers have to deal with problems like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.adpushup.com\/blog\/identify-bot-traffic\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">bot traffic<\/a> or MFA (made-for-advertising) websites that can lead to diminished returns. However, with CTV advertising, advertisers get an <strong>engaged audience<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"h-5-precise-measurement-and-actionable-insights\">5. Precise Measurement and Actionable Insights<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>CTV ad platforms often provide <strong>unified insights<\/strong> like impressions, VTR (view-through rate), VCR (video completion rate), conversion rate, CPCV (cost-per-completed-view), and ROAS. These <strong>real-time reports<\/strong> can assist advertisers in making data-driven decisions and optimizing for enhanced results.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-how-to-choose-a-top-connected-tv-ad-network\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_to_choose_a_Top_Connected_TV_Ad_Network\"><\/span>How to choose a Top Connected TV Ad Network?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>With the advertising market filled with options, it can be troubling for brands to choose the best CTV ad network for their CTV advertising campaigns. But fret not\u2014below are some criteria for selecting the top CTV ad network for your business needs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"h-targeting-capabilities\"><strong>Targeting Capabilities<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The first thing to look for in a connected TV ad network is its targeting capabilities. Ask yourself these questions before zeroing in on one:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Does it cater to my <strong>targeted locations<\/strong> (Americas, Europe, Asia, Africa, and Oceania)?<\/li><li>What <strong>target segmentation<\/strong> (behavioral, demographic, interest-based, local, contextual, device-based, etc.) does it follow?<\/li><li>How <strong>granular<\/strong> is their targeting (zip-code level, purchase history, time-of-day)?<\/li><li>Does the ad network offer <strong>partnerships with top CTV publishers<\/strong> like Roku or Hulu?<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"h-inventory-depth\"><strong>Inventory Depth<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The next point to consider is whether a connected TV ad network offers sufficient scaling capacity and access to specific platforms that fit its user base. Ask yourself:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Will the CTV ad network be able to <strong>target specific genres <\/strong>(sports, horror, lifestyle)<strong> or streaming apps<\/strong> (Netflix or Pluto TV)?<\/li><li>What kind of <strong>CTV inventory<\/strong> is available with the ad network (premium vs non-premium, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.adpushup.com\/blog\/explainer-the-four-types-of-programmatic-deals\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">programmatic<\/a> vs direct)?<\/li><li>Does it have inventory only from <strong>well-known platforms or emerging ones<\/strong> as well?<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"h-ad-formats\"><strong>Ad Formats<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Every advertiser has a specific campaign goal, which requires deploying a particular set of ad formats. The goal can range from brand awareness to in-store visits. Check with your connected TV ad network whether they have the required formats.
