Native Advertising with plista

What is native advertising?

Native advertising is an innovative online marketing tool. Many internet users find conventional online advertising annoying due to the excessive use of intrusive advertisements. Pop-up ads have to be actively clicked away, while advertising banners ruin the uniform design of a website and interrupt reading flow. As a consequence, users no longer discern the actual content of advertising (“banner blindness”) or even perceive brands negatively because of their chosen advertising format. This is where native advertising comes in. Native advertising is a form of online advertising that matches the form and function of the platform upon which it appears. The advertisements are incorporated into the website’s editorial content, ensuring that a user’s experience of the websites in question remains undisturbed and natural (“native”). This greatly increases user acceptance of and willingness to engage with advertising. Native advertising is distinguished by the following features:
