Brand safety for programmatic advertising

Brand Safety is crucial to maintaining the integrity of your campaign, organization, or candidate.

Brand Safety is crucial to maintaining the integrity of your campaign, organization, or candidate. No one wants to be associated with messaging that conflicts with their purpose and goals. Unfortunately, each year nearly $1 billion of programmatic advertising is spent on unsafe, brand-compromising content.

At Optimal we take several precautionary steps to ensure the brand safety of our clients is never jeopardized and that extends to ad fraud. Ad fraud is one of the greatest concerns facing digital advertisers today and can range from any deliberate activity that prevents the proper delivery of ads to your intended audience. Most commonly taking the form of bots, or domain spoofing, ad fraud thrives by siphoning off money from advertising transactions.

Industry-wide more than 17% of ad traffic is attributed to fraud. But here at Optimal, we regularly undergo auditing with third-party partners to ensure that we’re not exposing our client’s ad budgets to fraud, and have measured fraud rates as low as single digits! Anything that slips through filters in between audits is proactively blocked.

Some of the measures we take to ensure your programmatic ads are placed in brand safe inventory and safe against fraud include:
