In 2018, two-thirds (66.9%) of programmatic desktop display impressions served in Sweden met the minimum viewability standards*. However, in mobile web environments, impressions sourced via direct buys produced higher viewability, with nearly three-fifths (56.9%) of impressions found to be in-view compared to just over half (53.1%) for impressions sourced via programmatic channels.<\/p>\n<p>When determining the greatest opportunity to capture Swedish consumer attention, advertisers can look to time-based measurement and programmatic. Last year, the average overall duration an ad was in-view for desktop display campaigns was 9.83 seconds in programmatic, versus 9.64 seconds for direct buys. This highlights that Swedish advertisers have under 10 seconds to make an impact with their desktop campaigns.<\/p>\n<p>Bj\u00f6rn Lindholm, Director for Nordics at Integral Ad Science, comments, \u201cFindings from the 2018 Sweden Media Quality Report demonstrate a shift towards programmatic trading, with the term \u2018programmatic\u2019 no longer associated with lower quality inventory. This is likely due in part to an increase in publishers utilising programmatic to sell valuable inventory, via private marketplaces.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The shift towards more valuable programmatic trading is also reflected in levels of ad fraud. The 2018 report shows that for optimised desktop display campaigns &#8211; those that employed technology to detect and prevent ad fraud &#8211; up to 0.5% of impressions bought programmatically were wasted to ad fraud, and this doubled when looking at impressions bought direct.<\/p>\n<p>Lindholm continues, \u201cThanks to increasing budget flowing into digital, advertisers are demanding greater quality and maximised impact from their entire media plan. According to eMarketer, digital ad spending will reach \u20ac1.8 billion in 2019 in Sweden. With the idea of even having 1% of that spend wasted by being intercepted by fraudsters, advertisers are starting to plan accordingly to improve their ad effectiveness.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The full report can be viewed <a href=\"https:\/\/go.integralads.com\/se-mqr-2018.html?utm_campaign=WC-2018-H2-MQR-GLB-FC__FC&amp;utm_medium=content&amp;utm_source=website&amp;utm_content=media-quality&amp;utm_term=se-h2-2018-mqr-email-announcement\">here<\/a><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The latest Swedish Media Quality Report from Integral Ad Science provides benchmarks for viewability, brand safety, and ad fraud Stockholm, 23 April 2019 &#8211;
