Youtube is the second most popular search engine after Google – perfect for video advertising!

YouTube was created as a place for free uploading and playback of videos, and its library includes music videos, video blogs, tutorials and guides, and many other types of videos. It is a service where we not only listen to music or relax while watching a video presenting amazing adventures of pets, but it’s also a treasury of knowledge with tips and videos showing how to make the perfect line on the eyelid, how to repair the battery, or how to trim a fruit tree.

YouTube, due to the huge and constantly growing popularity, is also a great advertising place. According to Google data, over 90% of consumers say that it was thanks to YouTube videos and ads that they discovered new products and brands, and in 2018 alone, the time of watching videos with purchase advice doubled compared to the results of 2017.

With the ability to present products or services in the form of videos, more than 52% of Internet users watching a video on YouTube have taken specific actions, e.g. made a purchase.

More and more advertisers are starting to use YouTube advertising in their promotional campaigns. They know that potential customers should be reached not only from the level of the Google search engine, and that short text ads or small-size graphic banners are just a drop in the ocean of promotion methods.

In the face of growing opportunities and the emergence of stronger competition, it is worth reaching internet users as widely as possible. However, not only the place, but also the way of presenting products or services is important – advertising on YouTube allows you to convey much more information than other types of advertising. Where to show, if not in the video, the best advantages of the product or its use?

YouTube ad formats

YouTube together with Google Ads currently offers several different formats of video ads, which most often take the form of short video presenting given products or services and are displayed to Internet users while watching the videos they choose on the website or on the YouTube mobile application.

TrueView in Stream

Youtube ads are displayed before, during or after YouTube videos, games and applications on the Display Network. Ads may be skipped after 5 seconds of display.

TrueView Discovery

Ads that appear above YouTube search results or at the top of the column containing suggested video ads to watch (related to the video you’re currently viewing). They are presented in the form of a banner – film frames along with the title and description, and clicking on the banner initiates the playback of the advertising film.

Bumper Ads

The so-called bumper ads – short, 6-second advertising teasers that cannot be omitted. They are displayed before, during or after the video, and most often are accompanied by other types of video advertisements to strengthen the advertising message.

Youtube video ad sequences

They make it possible to tell the story of the promoted product or brand, showing Internet users a series of videos in a specific order. After users see the first step in your sequence, they can see the second step, and so on until every sequence step in the campaign has been shown.

Overlay Ads

Interactive cards presenting products from the online store that Internet users have watched before or which are related to the film being watched. Clicking on the card redirects recipients to the product subpage to enable the purchase. In this case, it is required to be connected to a Google Merchant Center account and to have a product feed.

The most desired interaction with a video ad is clicking on the ad, on the companion banner, or on the overlay with a call to action, and visiting the advertiser’s channel or website. Video ads are billed in the CPV (cost per view) or CPM (pay per mile) system.

Advantages of Youtube Ads

Youtube video ads are a great way to reach Internet users who are at different stages of the so-called sales funnel. Thanks to very precise targeting options, they can be presented to users actively looking for selected products or services, but also to those who are at the very beginning of the purchasing path. Advertising on Youtube can be targeted both on the basis of selected groups of recipients (e.g. people interested in a healthy lifestyle or planning to buy an apartment) and contextually – e.g. displayed on automotive or business channels.

Ads on YouTube and the Google Ads admin panel provide advanced data measurement capabilities. Unlike TV advertising, they allow you to accurately check the number of clicks, views, impressions, conversions, etc., based on selected days, hours, devices or audience. Based on this data, video campaigns can be effectively optimized – a huge amount of data allows you to determine in which groups of recipients you should invest more budget, or on which days of the week it is worth increasing expenses.

YouTube video ads have very low unit costs. The average cost for watching an advertising film, depending on the industry, target group and campaign optimization, may vary from a few to a dozen cents. There are campaigns where the customer pays as much as 0.01 USD for a single view of the advertisement.

Online ads are definitely more effective than their TV versions also in terms of engagement and impact. Thanks to the possibility of making quick and direct interaction (e.g. clicking and landing on a website), ads generate more conversions than ads on screens.
They are also characterized by simple configuration – video campaigns are created in a very simple and intuitive way, and in case of any doubts, the extensive Google support is available 24/7.

Video ads give the opportunity to present the effects, advantages or ways of using the promoted products or services. Contrary to TV spots, YouTube ads can last up to several minutes, and it is the audience who decides whether to watch the entire ad, skip it or make a different interaction. In the case of online advertising, any video placed on the advertiser’s YouTube channel can be an advertising video.

Due to the constantly growing access to the Internet, the reach of video advertising campaigns is increasing every year. Already about 80% of internet users use YouTube, spending more and more time there.

Why is it worth investing in video advertising?
