Adform introduces Universal Attention Segment by DoubleVerify (DV) as a new addition to our current contextual targeting products. Universal Attention Segment is a pre-bid solution that eliminates low-performing inventory from your media buys. It uses DV Authentic Attention data — a privacy-friendly, MRC-accredited data solution that doesn't rely on cookies. This solution measures ad attention, considering factors like ad format, on-screen location, viewer engagement, and provides a score reflecting how much attention an ad captures. DV Universal Attention Segment uses these scores to categorize inventory based on attention level (high, medium, or low).

Understand How DV Universal Attention Segment Works

When you activate DV Universal Attention Segment for your programmatic line items, the DV algorithm identifies websites with low user engagement. The algorithm excludes the bottom 40% of websites to avoid wasting ad impressions on users who aren't paying attention. To ensure that a large pool of websites remain available for ads, the algorithm avoids removing any website that delivers a significant portion (more than 10%) of the overall impressions. DoubleVerify refreshes the data daily to keep the targeting focused on websites with the most engaged users.

When to Use DV Universal Attention Segment

DV Universal Attention Segment offers the following benefits for both video and display campaigns:

  • Enhance ad impact by targeting domains with greater audibility and higher viewable completion rates, where viewers are more likely to pay attention.

  • Improve the quality of engagement with interactive ads by targeting placements where viewers are more likely to notice and interact with the ad, leading to higher click-through rates.
