Vad är Programmatic Advertising RTB

Programmatic Advertising with Real-Time Bidding (RTB) is the automated, algorithmic buying and selling of digital ad impressions through real-time auctions. When a user visits a webpage, an ad exchange sends a bid request to multiple DSPs (Demand-Side Platforms) in <100ms. Each DSP evaluates the opportunity (user, context, placement) and submits a bid price. The highest bidder's ad is served. The entire system relies on machine learning (predicting which impressions are valuable), distributed systems (handling millions of auctions per second), and protocol standards (OpenRTB).

❓ Vanliga frågor

What exactly is Real-Time Bidding?
RTB is an auction that happens in <100ms when someone visits a webpage. Ad exchanges receive bid requests, DSPs compete for the impression, and the highest bid wins, all in real-time.
How do DSPs decide what to bid?
Using predictive models trained on historical data. The model estimates the value (click-through rate, conversion rate, user lifetime value) and bids accordingly.
What's the OpenRTB protocol?
Standardized protocol for bid requests and responses. Ad exchanges send OpenRTB bid requests; DSPs respond with bid prices and creatives. Ensures interoperability.
What are viewability rates and why do they matter?
Viewability = was the ad actually seen by a human on screen? Low viewability = wasted spend. Modern RTB systems optimize for viewable impressions.
How do you prevent bid fraud?
Detect non-human traffic (bots), invalid placements, and suspicious patterns. Tools like Integral Ad Science and Moat help identify fraud.
