Native advertising keeps proving that it’s here to stay. The format is a powerful tool in any professional marketer’s arsenal. The article below will give you a look into the best ad networks to pair with your offers.
Native Ads Keep Taking Over
Nowadays, native advertising should be a pivotal part of every successful marketing strategy. Native ads mimic the surroundings they appear in to be as undisruptive and discreet as possible to catch and hold a user’s attention.
This level of familiarity ensures high engagement and accurate brand positioning. It was pretty obvious that such an agile ad format that offers so many possibilities will become the most popular way of advertising in the modern digital world.
It was already predicted in 2019, that almost two-thirds of display ads spending will go toward native ads in 2020 – and it did. According to Publift 74% of total US display ad revenue was generated by native ads in 2021.
Increasing dependency on mobile devices worldwide creates another ongoing trend – both advertisers and publishers bet on programmatic buying and mobile. Generally speaking programmatic advertising has been growing at an impressive rate in recent years. It went from 65B in 2020 to 81B last year and according to Improvado 2022 will bring it closer to 100B which means that almost 90% of all ads in the US will be bought programmatically.
While Facebook and Google are unquestionably the biggest sharks in the pool of ad revenue generators, native advertising keeps bringing other fish to the sea that are just as effective and competitive. Top native ad networks have built their brands investing more and more in contextual targeting, brand safety, deep personalization, advanced targeting and retargeting options.
With all that being said, we thought giving you a detailed look into the best native advertising networks and first-class options out there may come in handy.

Traffic: 2000+premium publishers
Targeting options: audience targeting (lookalike audiences, dynamic audiences),
Top websites: Traveler, Delish, Vogue, The Wall Street Journal, New York Times, Washington Post, Conde Nast, Meredith, Cosmopolitan, Business Insider, Reader’s Digest, NBC Universal, Sports Illustrated, TechCrunch, Esquire
LiveIntent is an organic people-based SSP, solely operating within the sphere of email communication. The network has exclusive relations with 2000+ publishers and brands most of which use LiveIntent to monetize their native and display inventory via email newsletters. As email is a logged-in environment, Liveintent claims that all their inventory is 100% responsive and predestined.
LiveIntent oftenly defines itself as a provider of people-based marketing, serving solutions to allow marketers to be present where people are paying attention, no matter what they are engaging with. Email is believed to be one of the most engaged marketing channels, some may even say that it’s way more engaging than social. Familiarizing yourself with Liveintent’s background, it shows that the SSP works only with the publishers who meet high content quality standards. That usually translates into high performance rates no matter the vertical.
“We have seen marketers working in Finance, Travel, and Business services have extraordinary success, which makes sense given that Executives are twice as likely to get their news from email rather than social. We’ve also seen Direct to Consumer brands have extraordinary success as of late on our platform, which is a direct result of the fact that email sits at the center of a marketing plan where you are focused on people, not devices”. Nelson Montouchet, Director of programmatic partnerships at Liveintent
Ok, so how does the email traffic work exactly?
There are a few steps that need to occur before an ad is served on LiveIntent:
- A user needs to sign up to one of our publisher’s email newsletters (and confirm their email address)
- The user then has to log into their email provider
- Finally, the user has to open up the email and click on “download images” (if the email provider supports it).
Only then is the LiveIntent ad call made and an ad served. Such an ad serving process ensures that any fraud can be eliminated easily, it assures satisfactory engagement rates and what seems to be the most important for you the advertiser, there are no wasted impressions (As mentioned before, an ad is only served when a user opens the email). Sounds awesome, right?
From the advertiser’s perspective, we’d definitely name 3 main advantages of exploring native email traffic: it’s entirely incremental to any inventory you can currently buy on the Web, it’s entirely fraud-free and through it you’re able to reach publisher’s best users (people who have raised their hands to receive their trusted publisher’s content).
Where would you position programmatic buying of email traffic on the palette of digital advertising? (top markets, main challenges, etc.)
Top market is the US, where the majority of our 250M unique people reside.
Inventory is about 65% Mobile, which makes sense when you think about it since email works across every device, channel, and platform.
Because email is a different, cookieless environment, it requires a different way of thinking about attribution. Successful marketers can’t rely on third-party ad servers like DCM for accurate reporting. They need to go back and examine post-impression conversions in their DSP. Post click conversions activity will work as expected in both the DSP & Ad server.
Additional perks: extensive knowledge base for both publishers and advertisers available online.
