Yesterday we shared information with you from PointRoll about Interactive In-Stream Video performance but what catagories are doing well?...
"Auto Top Vertical in Interactive Ad Performance
Automotive was the top vertical across interactive in-stream ads, boasting a 12.29% interaction rate, far ahead of non-profit organizations, which followed with a rate of 2.46%. The automotive vertical also posted the best 50% completion rate (88.9%), 75% completion rate (84.6%) and 100% completion rate (80.66%).
Consumer goods manufacturers led all verticals in click-through rates (1.17%), followed by non-profit organizations (0.99%) and retail (0.81%).
Insurance Leads Non-Interactive Ad CTR
For in-stream ads that did not include interactivity, insurance led all verticals with a 1.54% click-through rate (CTR), followed by telecommunications (1.34%) and consumer electronics manufacturers (1.19%). Consumer goods manufacturers posted the best completion rates, with 98.6% of viewers completing 25%, 97.7% completing 50%, 97.1% completing 75%, and an impressive 98.8% completing 100%.
