Video Ads outperform Banner Ads by atleast 7X factor.
Here are few of the things we have noticed as well,
Clean User Experience: quite to the contrary, game players are happier with a clean game experience that doesn’t involve annoying banner ads. Video ads on the other hand only show right after a game session ends – considered a break time – and right before the new game session starts.
Revenue – the major difference between banner and video ads is on the CPM and revenue potential. Although fill rates still pose an issue in video ads,, most games will see a 5-7x lift on revenue over banner ads.
Freedom for gamers – Giving gamers a complete control of the video viewing experience matter a LOT! Game players can watch video ads or close at any point in the process. Giving that full control of the video watching experience has significantly impacted video completion rates. As a result, we have a much higher video completion rate.
Video ads do perform exceptionally well compared to other monetization alternatives and will grow in significance as the months roll by — AppLixr works on fixed CPMs and guaranteed fill rates.
