Introducing Yahoo Gemini
• Yahoo Gemini is a unified ad market place for mobile search and native
advertising
• Native ads(image + text content) are shown across Yahoo India home
and category pages on all devices, whereas Search ads (text only) are
shown on Yahoo Search on mobile devices
• Since Search Advertising has not been rolled out for the Indian market
yet, the primary focus of this deck is Native Advertising.MGore-250416

What are Native Ads?
• Native Ads match the visual design of the organic content, with a similar look and feel. These
ads are clearly labeled as ‘Sponsored’
• These ads appear seamlessly across Desktop, Smartphone and Tablet, blending into the organic
feed
• It is also known as Content Advertising and is similar to promoted posts on Facebook

Interface Navigation – Tag Code (Settings>View Tag Code)
• Every account has a default code which works for both
remarketing and conversion tracking. This code is to be placed
across all the pages of the websites. This tag is called a Dot Tag.
Conversion rules and remarketing lists are then to be defined as
per requirement. This works exactly like a Facebook pixel
• Multiple codes can be created (not necessary) as shown below

editable

Conclusion• Yahoo Native is currently one of the lesser known options as compared to Facebook, Twitter
and Instagram. As a result, there is relatively less competition and high inventory available at
low costs
• The engagement/click-through rates are observed to be stronger than the other social media
platforms like Twitter since the users here are actively looking for news and articles and the
paid content is seamlessly blended into the organic feed, further contributing towards higher
engagement
• It is a recommended option for an advertiser looking to create a strong brand awareness at
low costs. If unrestricted by budget, use this platform along with Facebook campaigns to
reach out to a wider audience and create a stronger brand presence online
