How to Run a YouTube Advertising Campaign

Antalya escort

In addition to driving organic traffic to your content, there are also several paid options for promoting your video on YouTube. In this section, we’ll dive into some of the basics on how to run a YouTube advertising campaign.

The Cost of Advertising on YouTube

YouTube uses a cost-per-view (CPV) model, which means you only pay when someone engages with your video ad. If your ad is skipped, you aren’t charged for that view. The exact cost per click varies on keyword competitiveness but on average it’s around $0.06. Once you set your daily campaign budget, YouTube will display your ad until the daily budget is spent.

The Types of YouTube Ads

Video Discovery Ads

True View video discovery ads appear on the YouTube homepage, within search results, and as related videos on YouTube video watch pages. When a user clicks on one of these ads they will be redirected to the promoted video.

In-Stream Ads

In-stream ads refer to ads that play within a YouTube video itself. True View in-stream ads play before a viewer watches the video they’ve selected on YouTube. These ads can be customized with different overlay text and CTAs and viewers usually have the option to skip the ad after watching the first five seconds. In addition to the pre-roll in-stream ads that play before the video, there are also mid-roll video ads that appear midway through YouTube videos that are 10 minutes or longer.

Setting up your campaign

You can create a campaign using any video you’ve uploaded to your YouTube channel. First, go to your Google AdWords account to start the campaign setup.

Select your video by copying and pasting the YouTube URL into the Video ad box.

Add headline and description text for when your ad shows up in search results and pick a thumbnail.

Select where you want to send users who click the ad. You can pick between your YouTube channel or a website.

Set the daily budget for your video ad, and determine the maximum price you will bid for each view.

Select the location of users you want to see the ad. You can also exclude certain locations where you don’t want the ad to run.

Add additional targeting to your ad to further define the audience. You can target individuals by gender, age, interests, and numerous other demographic and psychographic differentiators. Link your AdWords account to your YouTube channel and click “finish” to start running your ad.
