TikTok has a new premium ad product “Pulse Premiere” in offering for marketers for the first time, to position their ads directly in over a dozen categories, including entertainment, sports, education and lifestyle etc.
With “Pulse Premiere”, advertisers can display their advertisements alongside TikTok clips in the top 4 per cent of performers on any given day in terms of views and interaction. Marketers will have more control over ad placement within the Pulse program. Basically, Pulse Premiere offers a sort of brand-safe space within TikTok’s social video network. They are guaranteed their ads will run immediately after what the platform refers to as “suitable TikToks” from premium publishers.
Moreover, TikTok’s expansion will enable more publishers to directly monetize their content on TikTok, while also amplifying existing partnerships. This will also address concerns about ad placement amid user-generated content that had previously caused disruptions to YouTube’s ad revenue. With TikTok’s latest product, marketers can be assured of their placement as the content will run only alongside trusted NBCU publishers, such as DotDash Meredith, and BuzzFeed. The platform is also partnering with Major League Soccer, Hearst Magazines, Vox Media, WWE, and UFC on the new program.
