Create a display ad campaign

Display ad campaigns allow advertisers to bid for ad placement in key areas around a company’s website, such as the homepage or the top of a product listing page.

Campaigns can also target placements on specific browse category and/or search results pages. For example, a fashion brand that carries women’s cashmere sweaters might bid for ad placement at the top of a fashion retailer’s Women’s Sweaters category page.

Companies can create display ad campaigns on behalf of advertisers from the Constructor dashboard.
