Dao.Ad Ad Network Review

In this review we’ll cover the Dao.Ad ad network. This review is aimed at advertisers — we’ll talk about how to buy quality traffic, what advantages the network offers for advertisers, and which ad formats are currently available. If you’re a webmaster looking to monetize your site, we’ve already covered Dao.Ad as a monetization platform in a separate review — madcpa.ru/obzor-platformy-dlya-monetizatsii-sajta-dao-ad/.

Ad Formats:

Currently, Dao.Ad offers traffic in three ad formats:

• Push Notifications — pop-up notifications that appear on the user’s PC, smartphone, or tablet screen after they subscribe.
• In-Page Push — a regular banner styled to look like a push notification on the user’s device. Works on all devices, including iOS.
• Pops — a separate ad area that loads beneath the main active window or tab when the user clicks on the page.

Traffic Volume and GEO:

Total traffic volume in Dao.Ad exceeds 1 billion impressions per month from more than 174 countries. You can check exact volume figures by format and GEO in the dedicated section on the Dao.Ad website — dao.ad/ru/manage/main/traffic-volumes.
