Nobody likes the advertisement, except those who are making it, that are marketers, creative, and advertisers.

Types of native advertising
To achieve the objectives of native advertising, brands use the following four main types of native advertising units.
- In-feed native ads
In-feed or in-between the content is the most prevalent type of native ad formats which usually appear on platforms like Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Yahoo, and Snapchat in the form of feeds. You will find them either in the form of sponsored ads or in-feed promotions.
By sponsored content, we mean those advertisements that take the form and function of the content appearing in a particular feed. You will find sponsored native ads on many popular platforms such as Forbes, Buzzfeed, Mashable, etc. On the other hand, in-feed promotions appear in the feed but do not behave like the content. This type of ad promotes a service directly by linking the content to the main site.
In-feed ad formats are widely used by Linkedin and Facebook to seamlessly present the content without disturbing the reader’s flow.
- Promoted Listings
Through promoted listings, eCommerce businesses are making a huge profit. Rather than pushing the products or services directly to the users, they are featured with promoted listings that fit well with the environment. This type of native ad format is highly targeted and relevant as they are shown to users on the basis of their recent activities on the web. Promoted listings are quite similar to in-feed promotions but they have their own category.
- Story Ad Unit
This is the newest video advertising format that has been included in the native ads category. The VDO.AI team has been using this native ad format very well and you can check VDO.AI reviews, how happy the customers are after using the story unit feature. This works on the same framework when you view the story status on several social media platforms such as Instagram. What makes it different is its additional features, which means the story unit allows the viewer to see 5 different video ads for a duration of 10-15 secs. A well-planned creative story can engage the users as well as receive the click on the ad.
Without disturbing the current flow of the user, the story ad unit showcases the user with different content that is completely relevant to the content he/she is reading or viewing.
- Recommendation widget
You might have noticed the suggestion at the bottom or in the left or right sidebars of a page. These suggestions are directly related to the content you are reading and there are higher chances that you are interested in reading them. The only difference is that the content is added by some other brand or publishers and not from the webpage you are currently viewing. With these recommendation widgets, advertisers can achieve their KPI goals and position themselves in front of their target audiences.
