The noise and quality of the format has a lot to say for how the brand and the advertisement are perceived, yes - in fact if it is perceived at all! On VGTV, there is ONLY 1 bumper advertisement before and between editorial content. That way, you do not have to fight for consumers' attention, and consumers will not experience the ad as noisy. The tests we have carried out in collaboration with Norstat show that this is true. Bumps on VGTV have on average contributed to 40% being positive about the brand in the advertisement, which is as much as 9 percentage points above the benchmark for all formats.
The effect of being in a good editorial context
Surveys show that the context in which the ad stands has a lot to say about how the ad and the brand are perceived. Not surprisingly, an editorial context is perceived as good. It is serious, confident and has readers' credibility. If you are interested in this topic, we recommend the report from IAB, which you can read here. VG is a channel people trust, and advertising on VGTV can consequently have a positive effect on your brand (The Halo Effect).
