Amplify Your Brand With Native Advertising
Build deeper connections with your customers through the power of native advertising campaigns and sponsored content.
Why Native Advertising?
Unlike traditional forms of advertising, native ads are often consumed in the same way as editorial content. This allows advertisers and publishers to seamlessly integrate branded content into the user experience. As a result, native ads help maintain click-through rates similar to those of editorial content, improving cost-per-click metrics and overall campaign performance.
4 Benefits of Native Advertising
- Blend your ads naturally into surrounding content, so they feel less intrusive and more engaging.
- Showcase your brand’s creativity across a variety of visually-appealing ad formats to help with brand perception.
- Leverage advanced targeting capabilities, so your ad reaches the right audience wherever they consume content.
- Retarget users who have shown interest in your brand with new creatives, to further optimize your campaign results.

Native Advertising FAQs
Native advertising is a form of advertising that seamlessly merges high-quality content into a given platform’s organic experience.

At StackAdapt, we take a different approach than other native advertising platforms. Currently, “native advertising” tends to be an overused buzzword applied to anything that isn’t a banner ad. We’re redefining it as something scalable and superior—it’s the intersection of customized native content delivery and the power of programmatic technology.
Programmatic native advertising serves each ad unit on an impression-by-impression level. It leverages real-time data and decision-making to ensure the most relevant ad is placed on each site, creating a unique user experience.
Advertisers run native ad units to engage audiences. This ad format is very popular as it aligns with the site’’s content and the audience’s interests.
Research consistently shows that native advertising outperforms traditional digital marketing methods. Scientific evidence also indicates that native ads engage both hemispheres of the brain, making them more memorable and influential. By integrating seamlessly with relevant content, native ads capture user attention, leading to stronger engagement and recall.
Native advertising has seen heavy sustained growth since its inception. In 2023, EMARKETER forecasted that US advertisers would spend close to $100 billion on native display advertising. US native ad spend accounted for 63.1% of total display ad spend in 2024, as advertisers continued to pivot from social media.
