Digital Advertising


Television advertising / music in advertising
The TV commercial is generally considered the most effective mass-market advertising format, as is reflected by the high prices TV networks charge for commercial airtime during popular TV events. The annual Super football game in the United States is known as the most prominent advertising event on television. The average cost of a single thirty-second TV spot during this game has reached US$3 million (as of 2009). The majority of television commercials feature a song or jingle that listeners soon relate to the product. Virtual advertisements may be inserted into regular television programming through computer graphics. It is typically inserted into otherwise blank backdrops or used to replace local billboards that are not relevant to the remote broadcast audience. More controversially, virtual billboards may be inserted into the background where none exist in real-life. This technique is especially used in televised sporting events. Virtual product placement is also possible.


Radio advertising
Radio advertising is a form of advertising via the medium of radio. Radio advertisements are broadcast as radio waves to the air from a transmitter to an antenna and a thus to a receiving device. Airtime is purchased from a station or network in exchange for airing the commercials. While radio has the limitation of being restricted to sound, proponents of radio advertising often cite this as an advantage. Radio is an expanding medium that can be found not only on air, but also online. According to Arbitron, radio has approximately 241.6 million weekly listeners, or more than 93 percent of the U.S. population.

Online advertising
Online advertising is a form of promotion that uses the Internet and World Wide Web for the expressed purpose of delivering marketing messages to attract customers. Online ads are delivered by an ad server. Examples of online advertising include contextual ads that appear on search engine results pages, banner ads, in text ads, Rich Media Ads, Social network advertising, advertising, advertising and e-mail marketing, including e-mail spam.

Product placements
Covert advertising, also known as guerrilla advertising, is when a product or brand is embedded in entertainment and media. for example, in a film, the main character can use an item or other of a definite brand, as in the movie minority report, where tom cruise's character John Ander ton owns a phone with the nokia logo clearly written in the top corner, or his watch engraved with the Bulgaria logo. another example of advertising in film is in i, robot, where main character played by will smith mentions his converse shoes several times, calling them "classics," because the film is set far in the future. i, robot and space balls also showcase futuristic cars with the Audi and mercedes-benz logos clearly displayed on the front of the vehicles. Cadillac chose to advertise in the movie the matrix reloaded, which as a result contained many scenes in which cadillac cars were used. similarly, product placement for watches, ford, vaio, bmw and aston martin cars are featured in recent James bond films, most notably casino royal. in "fantastic four: rise of the silver surfer", the main transport vehicle shows a large dodge logo on the front. blade runner includes some of the most obvious product placement; the whole film stops to show a coca-cola billboard.
