The YouTube Masthead Is Now Available On TV Screens For All Advertisers Globally

Google has announced that all advertisers globally can now buy the YouTube Masthead on a CPM basis, as a seamless cross-screen buy or only on TV Screens.

Back in September Google announced an open beta test bringing the YouTube Masthead to TV Screens in addition to mobile and desktop placements.

Following the success of the test in some select markets, all advertisers will now be able to run their ads on mobile, desktop, and TV Screens – as part of a seamless cross-screen buy – or choose to run them only on TV Screens.

Furthermore, advertisers will be able to do so on a CPM basis as well as CPD. This development is particularly important since the YouTube Masthead on TV screens has the potential to drive a lot of awareness for advertisers with the “rich audio and visual experience” it offers – especially when combined with the home placement.

Google Ads advertisers globally can now take advantage of the YouTube Masthead on TV Screens in addition to its mobile and desktop placements.
