Ad Verification Definition
Ad verification involves using technology to confirm that ads are delivered as intended, preventing issues like fraud, inappropriate placements, non-viewable impressions, or brand safety violations. Verification enhances transparency, trust, and campaign performance.
How Ad Verification Works
- Third-party tools monitor ad placements across platforms.
- They detect fraud, invalid traffic (IVT), and viewability issues.
- Reports highlight violations such as ads appearing on unsuitable content.
- Advertisers adjust campaigns to maintain compliance and effectiveness.
