The very first step to any header bidding setup in DFP is planning. Because many of the elements and settings you create in DFP can be duplicated in mass, saving you tons of time, it is crucial to make sure everything is up to spec from the very start.
When a user visits the website, the header bidding script in the head of the web page “sees” this user and sends a request to all of the integrated partners (SSPs and exchanges) simultaneously. At this time, each partner initiates an auction with their DSPs. The DSPs then return their bids for the impression and the winning bid is returned to the ad server so the ad server can determine the final line item to serve. The marketer’s ad server is called with the final line item and the ad creative is returned via CDN and loaded on the page. Notice that the workflow of this process is very similar to that of a waterfall except all of the partners are called simultaneously instead of routing the call through a number of passbacks from partner to partner.
If you’ve not heard of it before, header bidding is something you should keep an eye on. It’s a new ad optimization technique that has the potential to turbo most your ad revenue, but that at the moment is only being used by larger publishers. In a nutshell, header bidding (which is also known as auction in the header) raises ad revenue by re-inventing how ad networks and exchanges bid for your inventory. It does this by placing code on the header portion of your site, which then requests and receives bid prices from all your ad partners at the same time every time someone visits your site.
Header bidding, also known as auction in the header, enables publishers to receive and simultaneously evaluate real-time bids from advertisers. Unlike a traditional waterfall, header bidding encourages competition between SSPs and allows for a single unified auction. For publishers, this means higher overall yield. “Rather than just choosing between the open exchange or private marketplaces, the smartest publishers are developing hybrid optimisation strategies that fit their specific business needs,” says says Tim Cadogan, CEO of OpenX. “The trend of header bidding will continue to accelerate and leading solutions will separate from the pack.”
Price floors act as if-then statements where publishers get to determine which ad campaigns are allowed to bid for each ad partner. Publishers use price floors to tier their ad partners when organizing their ad stacks. When a publisher sets a price floor, they are effectively preventing advertisers from bidding on their inventory. The natural effect of raising a price floor is an increase in CPM. So why wouldn’t all publishers put a $10 price floor on all of their ad tags and drive CPMs through the roof? Fill Rate.
