Why brands use native advertising
Native advertising has evolved to become a core strategy in digital marketing. By blending seamlessly with the content and format of the platform, advertisers can benefit from being perceived as part of the site’s trusted environment.
For example, when a native ad appears on a respected news site, readers are more likely to associate the advertiser with the same level of credibility and authority as the publication itself.
Banner blindness
When people scroll through their preferred news sites they eventually develop something called banner blindness. What happens is that people subconsciously focus on a page’s content and block out ads that tries to divert attention away from what they came to the site to see. This is a common phenomenon, but is avoided when using the native format.
Blend in like a super hero
Readpeak, unlike most other platforms, has a unique template for each publisher. That means your ad will transform into the correct fonts, the pictures will scale so that there is no unnecessary “air” around the ad and the the look & feel is matched with the content surrounding the ad.
Native advertising delivers results across the funnel
Native advertising has traditionally excelled in mid-funnel strategies, especially during exploration and consideration phases. However, advertisers are increasingly recognizing its broader potential. Studies show native can outperform display ads by up to 30% in raising top-of-mind awareness. Additionally, many clients now use native as a primary driver for conversions, highlighting its versatility beyond awareness and consideration.
We all have different goals

What data should you look for?
When analyzing native advertising, focus on key metrics like Cost Per Click (CPC), Click-Through Rate (CTR), and Time Spent on your landing page. Analyzing these at a granular level, ideally down to the site level, helps identify top-performing placements and allows for better optimization.
