Video ad placements continue to evolve
Our appetite for video isn’t slowing down any time soon.
Video is ubiquitous to the online experience and for marketers, this makes it an incredibly powerful tool.
Why is it so powerful?
Because, people love video.
And engagement is much higher with the click through rate for video ads being a massive 27.4 times higher than banner ads.
With this in mind, there are continuous updates in ad placements and formats for ads as we look for new ways to reach customers.
Let’s take a look at a few of them.

Virtual product placement is here
Imagine if you could insert your product into a show in post production.
Enter virtual product placement (VPP).
Earlier this year, Amazon and NBC Universal announced VPP as part of their advertising offer.
So, moving forward, product placement does not need to be negotiated and dealt with before a movie or TV series goes into production.
What to keep an eye out for – Amazon Ads unBoxed 2022
Amazon also has its eyes firmly on the video advertising space as clearly indicated by a number of announcements at its recent ‘unBoxed’ advertising event.
