Why Am I Not Seeing My Ads?
It’s totally normal not to see your own ads while browsing—and here’s why:
The programmatic ad marketplace is huge and constantly changing. Ads are shown based on many conditions like:
-
User behavior
-
Time of day
-
Device and browser
-
Location
-
And whether your bid wins in a live auction
Even if all those factors align, your ad is still competing in an auction and may not always win.
At Ui.Marketing, we provide detailed reporting that shows:
-
Which websites your ads appeared on
-
Which supply vendors delivered them
-
The environments where your ads were viewed
Keep in mind:
-
There are billions of websites online
-
The average person only visits about 96 sites per month
-
Ads are targeted to specific users, not just general web traffic
So, while it’s exciting to want to spot your ad "in the wild," it’s very rare—and that’s expected!
