a Lasting Impression with Display Ads
YouTube attracts millions of viewers every day and you can reach
them without a video on YouTube. Display advertising on YouTube puts
your message in front of viewers as they watch their favorite videos

itself. Your display ads will appear only on the pages of selected
YouTube partners.

category, channel, context, placement or interest on YouTube or the
millions of sites in the Google Display Network.
Reinforce your message
Pair your in-stream video ads with display ads to reinforce your
message and increase your impact. When a viewer initiates a video,
YouTube displays your 300x250 display ad for the full duration of
the video.

your rich media ads on YouTube and on the Google Display Network,
reaching up to 89% of all online users.
