For advertisers:

Targeting by Proxy users

Proxy traffic is traffic that passes through proxy servers or VPN services. These services allow users to conceal their real IP address and change their geolocation. Proxy traffic is often used to bypass geographical restrictions, providing access to content and resources that are unavailable in certain regions.

We strongly recommend you to create a Proxy ad campaign targeting by Language.

1. 로 이동합니다. 캠페인 관리 section;

3. Choose the preferred ad format, traffic channel and campaign targeting settings;
4. 에서 Campaign Filters section choose the parameter Only;
5. Set up other necessary ad campaign settings;
6. Click on the Add campaign button.

Perfect! Your Proxy advertising campaign is created. To make the campaign active, top up your balance.

Please be informed, you can create separate ad campaigns targeted by Proxy users or non-proxy users, you cannot mix these types of traffic.

Why Proxy traffic is the perfect opportunity to find your customers?
There are a lot of VPN and Proxy services that are used every day, and your potential customers can “hide” behind VPN services. So, how can you find them and increase your profit? Create a Proxy ad campaign and target it by the necessary language, for example, by German (DE). In such a case, your ads will be shown to all Proxy users who are detected as German speakers, even if their IP address country is different.

Targeting by Web view users

Web view traffic refers to the traffic generated by web view-based applications. These applications essentially display web content within a native app, creating a seamless browsing experience for users. Web view traffic can be a valuable source of traffic for advertisers, as it allows you to reach users who are engaging with content through various apps.

To create an advertising campaign targeting Web view users, you need to do the following:

1. 로 이동합니다. 캠페인 관리 section;
2. Click on the 캠페인 추가 button;
3. Choose the preferred ad format, traffic channel and campaign targeting settings;

5. Set up other necessary ad campaign settings;
6. Click on the Add campaign button.

Usually, web view traffic is present on all sites in small volumes. So, we recommend you to mix web view traffic with non-web view by using Allow parameter.
