Contextual advertising

Definition

Advertising links or ads that are generated according to web page context.


Information

Contextual advertising uses a system that reads the text of a website for keywords and then serves advertisements to the web page viewer depending on what they are viewing. If a web page viewer is reading about fishing the contextual advertising software will generate ads related to fishing supplies or links to other fishing related websites.
