Open your planner, not another tab. To put Sharethrough to work, start by matching objectives to placements and signals. In your DSP, split prospecting and retargeting into separate lines and point them to Sharethrough deals: native for upper-funnel reach, video or CTV for storytelling, and display for efficient frequency shaping. Upload multiple creative variations and let Sharethrough’s enhancement layer automatically add context cues (headline, callout, CTA) where applicable. Turn on viewability, attention, and contextual pre-bid filters so you only pay for inventory aligned with your outcome. Save each setup as a template so future flights launch in minutes, not hours.
Day to day, manage Sharethrough like a dedicated route in your supply path. Create private deals for premium domains, then a backstop open exchange line for scalable reach. Use bid shading and dynamic CPM caps to control cost. Review hourly pacing and consolidate budget into the top quartile of sites by attention or post-click rate. Rotate fresh creative every 7–10 days; archive underperformers decisively. For brand safety, enforce your blocklist and language/geography layers at the deal level, and verify with third‑party verification tags. When campaign goals shift, clone winning deals and change only the optimization target—less guesswork, faster iteration.
Publishers and app teams can monetize with minimal lift. Add the Sharethrough adapter in your header bidding stack (e.g., Prebid), confirm sellers.json and (app-)ads.txt entries, and place native, video, or display units where they complement content—not compete with it. Use lazy load and viewability thresholds to cut waste. Run a two-week price floor test: start with three tiers, monitor win rate and revenue per mille, then narrow to the sweet spot. In OTT/CTV, map inventory to curated packages for news, lifestyle, and sports, and offer buyers clear content descriptors. Ship changes through staging, validate latency with web vitals, and watch for shifts in CLS or scroll depth to protect reader experience.
Lean on the Sharethrough team when scaling. Ask for region-specific deal catalogs if you’re expanding to new markets, and request creative audits before major launches. If CPMs feel tight, package outcomes (viewable impressions, completed views, or on-site actions) to justify rate cards. If you need more format variety, combine native/video with companion units and test sequential messaging across devices. Close the loop with reporting: pull site-level or app-level breakdowns weekly, annotate optimizations, and keep a living playbook so the next sprint starts where the last one ended.
