This can help prevent ad fatigue.

This will vary from website to website. Labels can range widely, but the most common are: Sponsored, Sponsored Content, Promoted, Recommended by [Brand], Ad, or Promoted Listings. Though, all ads must comply with the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/url?q=https:\/\/www.ftc.gov\/tips-advice\/business-center\/guidance\/native-advertising-guide-businesses&amp;sa=D&amp;source=editors&amp;ust=1616187114489000&amp;usg=AOvVaw0Mix6UnIIQZSoJtqnWbT3f\" target=\"_blank\" aria-label=\"FTC advertising guidelines (opens in a new tab)\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" class=\"rank-math-link\">FTC advertising guidelines<\/a>. Advertisers should never attempt to deceive users, and ads should be clearly labeled as such.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"dark-section\">The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/url?q=https:\/\/contentmarketinginstitute.com\/2019\/04\/native-advertising-examples\/&amp;sa=D&amp;source=editors&amp;ust=1616187114489000&amp;usg=AOvVaw16KyHhuj9W87ZbOzne7Mxp\" target=\"_blank\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" class=\"rank-math-link\">Content Marketing Institute has defined<\/a> 3 principles of native advertising:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li><strong>They are a direct-paid opportunity. <\/strong>Native advertising is pay to play. Brands pay for the placement of content on platforms outside of their owned media properties.<\/li><li><strong>They\u2019re typically information-based rather than overtly product-focused.<\/strong> Ideally, the content in a native campaign should be useful, interesting, and highly targeted to the media channel\u2019s audience.<\/li><li><strong>They\u2019re delivered in stream. <\/strong>Native advertising doesn\u2019t disrupt the user experience because it\u2019s featured in a way that does not impede the user\u2019s normal behavior on that channel.<\/li><\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:175px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer desktop\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:80px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer mobile\"><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:100px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns container is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-3 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Types of Native Ads<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Native advertising is more a style of ad than a platform. The inconspicuous nature of this ad type makes it a great way to distribute high-quality content to consumers who may not follow or be familiar with your business or brand. Native advertising traditionally has a higher click through rate than display ads because they\u2019re relevant to what the user is already interested in and consuming. Therefore, they\u2019re more likely to be shared organically.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can find native ads on a mix of other <a href=\"\/digital-advertising\/\" class=\"rank-math-link\">digital advertising platforms<\/a>. For example:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Social media ads that appear within the feed of organic content&nbsp;<\/li><li>Branded Snapchat filters<\/li><li>Search ads and promoted listings on Google SERPs<\/li><li>Content recommendations at the bottom of articles on top publishing sites<\/li><li>Recommended products on Amazon<\/li><\/ul>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"541\" height=\"829\" src=\"https:\/\/www.back40design.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/ads-on-mobile-phone.jpg\" alt=\"ads on mobile phone\" class=\"wp-image-4206\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.back40design.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/ads-on-mobile-phone.jpg 541w, https:\/\/www.back40design.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/ads-on-mobile-phone-375x575.jpg 375w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 541px) 100vw, 541px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:80px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns container is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-4 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"667\" src=\"https:\/\/www.back40design.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/jake-talking-on-phone.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-4149\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.back40design.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/jake-talking-on-phone.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.back40design.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/jake-talking-on-phone-575x384.jpg 575w, https:\/\/www.back40design.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/jake-talking-on-phone-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How Back40 Can Help<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Our digital marketing experts strategically and programmatically buy native ad placements on highly-trafficked websites that relate to your ideal customer\u2019s interests.
