What do you like best about YouTube Advertising?

The upside of YouTube advertising is that the ads here are in audio-visual format. With two sensories in action, you can convey more than just what's being heard or just what's being seen. Together they can derive more impactful meaning in less time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about YouTube Advertising?

Some ads take too much time to come to the point. Far talking of proposition, sometimes you don't even know what the brand or product/service is before intuitively hitting the skip button. And if it's an ad without a skip button, you feel trapped and agitated. Not paying full attention to the ad. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is YouTube Advertising solving and how is that benefiting you?

YouTube advertising is solving the problem of reaching a large and diverse audience for businesses and content creators. It allows for highly targeted advertising, measurable results, and the ability to reach a global audience at a relatively low cost. As a user, I benefit from relevant and informative ads while enjoying free access to YouTube content. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
