To implement Google server side ad insertion, you can use a MediaSource with the custom ssai:// URI. In the following paragraphs we will discuss the SSB streaming URL and the various ways that this functionality can be implemented. Next, we'll discuss ExoPlayer and how to implement the SSBstream URL. We'll also talk about the issues with client-side advertising insertion and possible solutions.
URL for SSB stream
You must enable Dynamic Ad Insertion to Google's server side ads insertion on your content. This method can be useful if you want to track the metrics in your video streams. Important to remember that once the SSB stream URL has been installed on your content source, you can't change it. If you'd like to use DAI for your content, you'll need to enable DAI authentication keys and configure CDN ingest and delivery settings. To receive emails, you may want to enable ingest errors notifications.
DoubleClick For Publishers (DFP) is a popular ad network, and is a great way to make your website more interactive. The ads are dynamically inserted into your content after a page has been loaded, based on your visitor's interests. However, Dynamic Ad Insertion, also known by Google DFP, has been introduced. You should first learn about client-side ad insertion before you can set up Google DFP Server Side Ad Insertion.
Problems with client-side advertising insertion
The number of advertisements on websites has skyrocketed in recent years. Many end-users now use ad blocking software to block ads from appearing on pages. This problem can be solved by client-side advertising insertion. This integration integrates advertising assets with videos, eliminating the issue of ads loading while videos are not. It reduces buffering while maintaining video quality.
Another issue with client-side advertising is the inability to support ad sewing. This ad technology is a great way for publishers to track user engagement and use more complex ad formats. However, it lacks measurement support. The good news is that client-side ad insertion technology has improved dramatically over the last three years. This makes it the best way of monetizing any video content.
Solution with ExoPlayer
ExoPlayer is a client-side solution for ad insertion. Its StyledPlayerView implements the AdViewProvider and provides an AdsLoader for timed metadata. ExoPlayer allows you to use any VAST-compliant advertising server. ExoPlayer also allows you to use custom Ad SDK MediaSources to listen and record these events.
Developers can add advertisements to any video content by using the SDK. The IMA SDK supports ads that are embedded within media content, such as videos. However, it's not optimized to run standalone ads. In these cases, Google Mobile Ads SDK should be used. It is possible to integrate an SDK from a third party with ExoPlayer by using a custom AdsLoader
Methods of implementation
Server side ads don't originate from the app or browser. Instead, the publisher makes the call without having any code on the page. This is not the best solution for programmatic publishers but it is preferred by brands that want to be more creative with their advertising offerings. Brands can use server side ads to create native ads that replace all content. This technology is great for web content, as it limits the obtrusiveness and impact of the ad.
Building a platform is the most difficult part of server-side ads. Kevel is a popular API tool for building your server-side ads platform. But once you have the platform, switching to programmatic ads can be a daunting task. It will require strong buy in from various departments. Because direct-sold listings will still require ad tag, your server-side strategy must focus on direct sales.
