Twitter introduces new ad bids for advertisers

To ease advertisers from the problem of spending too much money on advertisements but not getting enough leads, Twitter introduces a new policy. Now any brand that wants to advertise will only be charged for advertisements only if their video ad is viewed for at least six seconds.

Advertisers use a variety of strategies to create unique ads but sometimes it’s just not enough. Therefore, Twitter is rolling out a new video bidding option. This bidding option will enable advertisers to easily run 15-seconds or fewer video ads but the advertisers will only be charged in case the ad is viewed for at least six seconds with pixels at 50% in-view.


According to Twitter, this is a new Flexible option for advertisers who care about the viewers who view their ads. So, this new bidding option is helpful for advertisers who are looking to engage more leads into the mobile-first paradigm and to generate an optimized in-feed viewing through its short-videos.

How is this new option any good?

This new bidding ad option helps brands who are more focused to get views rather than leads. The new six-second video ad bidding option select’s a page from the 6-second bumper ads of YouTube and offers brands the flexibility to run it longer.

According to the source, if you use a six-second video ad and combine it with creativity and uniqueness the chances of view rate will be increased by 22%.

Short-videos with no sounds but the clear perspective of the brands deliver it better to viewers on the mobile styled format as compared to TV-styled videos.
