Setupad’s cooperation with Ezgif
Our main goal while working with Ezgif was to increase their ad revenue. And for a service-based website like ezgif we had two solutions in mind:
- Header-Bidding implementation
With our Header-Bidding wrapper solution, we were able to connect ezgif to the top 15+ SSPs (including Google). - Viewable Bid optimization
Tracking the user engagement with advertising and delivering another ad if there is such an opportunity according to the effectiveness.
Client’s comment
After 6 years of great experience with Adsense and couple of fruitless attempts to use other ad networks, I was quite skeptical at first when Setupad reached out to me, but now I’m glad I agreed to give it a try. The revenue has increased significantly and the support has been a great help and quick at problem-solving.
Results
The combination of both of these solutions for ezgif.com resulted in earning twice as much in ad revenue than before.
It is worth mentioning that the biggest skill is to optimize. With optimization, we were able to drive up the amount of sold ad impressions and drastically improve ad revenues not only by adding multiple buyers (SSPs), but also optimizing the one that our client already had – Google.
