here's how ad networks typically work
Publishers join an ad Network and
provide information about their ad
inventory such as available ad slots ad
sizes and targeting options
advertisers looking to display their ads
join the same ad Network they provide
details about their advertising
campaigns including the target audience
budget and creatives and campaign
duration the ad Network uses its
technology and algorithms to match the
available ad inventory from Publishers
with the targeting criteria specified by
advertisers this ensures that ads are
shown to the most relevant audience
based on the factors like demographics
interests and browsing Behavior
next the ad Network facilitates the
buying and selling bad space through
either an auction based model or direct
sales in the auction model advertisers
bid for available ad Impressions and the
highest bidder gets to display their ads
in direct sales advertisers negotiate
directly with Publishers to purchase
specific ad placements at fixed prices
once an ad is purchased the ad Network
handles the delivery of the ad to the
Publisher's digital property
they provide the necessary ad tags or
code Snippets that the publisher
integrates into their website or app

performance of the ads including
Impressions clicks conversions and other
relevant metrics

revenue sharing model they take a
percentage of the revenue generated from
ad sales as their commission and the
remaining amount is paid out to the
