What is Re-Targeting?
The main goal of re-targeting ads is to re-engage site visitors after they have left the Site. Re-targeting ads are generated based on the actual products or offers viewed on the advertiser's site. For example, if you've visited a retailer's website and viewed a specific product, you might receive a banner ad containing that product. Rather than showing the same ad to every visitor, thenewsreportknow.com's dynamic ad application will select the most relevant ad copy based on your activity on the Site. Our personalized re-targeting platform works when an advertiser places our tag on his website. The tag embeds a third-party cookie on the browser of users visiting the Site. Using real time bidding (RTB) ad exchanges, it is then possible to focus media buying efforts against those visitors. Our personalized re-targeting ads intelligently match the right offering to each visitor based on his previous activities on the Site. Each advertiser using thenewsreportknow.com's services is responsible to limit the number of ad impressions shown to each user in order to ensure that viewers are not overly exposed to specific ads.
How Can I Remove Myself from Being Re-Targeted?
The Site makes removing our tracking cookie easy for any user who wishes to do so. Users that don't want to see personalized ads should simply email [email protected].
