Share This Post

Advant Technology is a programmatic advertising agency founded in 2014 and has quickly grown to be one of the most successful agencies in London, working with some of the world’s most sophisticated marketing teams globally.

Display Advertising Agency

We specialise in digital display, video, audio and native advertising, which means we buy ad space to help brands engage with their potential audience through paid ads that are served to consumers based on their browsing habits and other user behaviour.

We use the most effective technology tools to reach potential customers, such as Google Ads, DV360 and Xandr, allowing us to run on the Google Display Network across mobile devices and desktop devices.

As a global player in display marketing, our account management team will help you define your audience and develop a tailored display advertising strategy. 

Display Advertising 

The online advertising ecosystem started with the classic display ad, a banner ad in a simple JPEG image format. Today the digital space encompasses much more. 

Our programmatic display agency has access to many formats that help our clients generate brand awareness which include web banners, rich media such as skins and wallpaper, video including pre-roll and out-stream, native, connected TV, social, search and programmatic audio. 

London-Based Digital Marketing Agency

London is the leading digital marketing hub globally. It has a unique position where US companies wanting to enter Europe do so through London, and leading European companies take their first step through London. The result is the epicentre of digital marketing with access to the best ad-tech service providers. That talent and drive unique to London has laid the foundation for excellence in programmatic display advertising.

Target Audience

Your target audience is the foundation for launching a successful digital display advertising campaign. Advant Technology will help you determine who they are using a proprietary approach; this data is then translated into a custom strategy, ensuring we get the right message to your potential customers and advising you on how best to convert your website visitors.

Remarketing Display Advertising Services London 

We provide remarketing services to our clients; this means that even if someone has visited your website but hasn’t completed their purchase, you can target them again with the right message at just the right time. This will help increase conversions and improve ROI on display ad campaigns. 

Benefits of Display Advertising

There are many benefits to using display advertising as part of your marketing mix.

Some of these benefits include building brand awareness, increasing website traffic, generating leads and driving conversions.

What’s more, display advertising can be targeted at specific demographics (location, age, gender) or interests (travel, technology) so you can ensure your message is being sent to the right people.

Benchmarks That Matter

Online display advertising is complex, and it can be easy to get lost in the data. We simplify this by giving you access to market-leading dashboards. They are customised on a per-client basis. You can expect to see impressions, clicks, cost-per-click, conversions, CTR, viewability, time in view, completion rate, win rates and many other benchmarks.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a programmatic agency?

A programmatic agency is an advertising agency that specialises in programmatic display advertising. Programmatic display advertising is a form of digital advertising that uses software to buy ad space on websites and apps in real-time.

How much does programmatic cost?

Clients typically have a budget in mind; typically, we work with clients who are spending at least $5000/. £4000 a month on paid media. If you are already running paid search / PPC campaigns, programmatic advertising could help you extend your potential audience reach.

What are display advertising platforms?

Display advertising platforms are typically referred to as demand-side platforms or DSPs. They enable agencies to buy programmatic display campaigns through a complex infrastructure that connects advertising space from ad-funded publishers in genres such as news, entertainment and gaming mobile apps etc. to advertising buyers who buy the space through an auction that takes place in an ad exchange. 

Is Display Advertising Paid?

Yes, display advertising is paid, unlike organic marketing channels such as SEO. 

Do You Run Ads on the Google Display Network

Yes. Advant Technology has access to multiple DSPs, which allows us to run display advertising on a wide range of websites, including through the Google Display Network across all regions. We are also experts in other enterprise-level platforms such as Google DV360 and HAWK by Tabmo and Zeta. 

Benefits of a Display Advertising Agency

A programmatic agency’s main focus is planning and buying digital media. 

Agency Account Managers: Our agency account managers work closely with you to create a marketing plan that best suits your needs and budget and manage the campaign during its duration.

Market & Structure Tool

Advant Technology — LinkedIn Ads for Enterprise Technology

Which markets change your campaign, and how

A working companion to the multi-market playbook. Explore what actually differs between the UK, US, DACH and APAC — or answer four questions to see whether your account list needs one campaign structure or several.

United Kingdom

UK
Message-based formats
Available

Outside the EU/EEA/Switzerland exclusion since Brexit, so Conversation Ads (successor to Message Ads) are not caught by the EU restriction that applies to Germany.

Governing regime

UK GDPR. Standard UK GDPR employee-data handling applies; no equivalent to Germany's works-council co-determination layer.

Decision culture

Closer to US pace. Single decision-maker with committee sign-off is common; buying-group validation is typically faster than DACH.

Localization

English-native. No localisation tax on creative or landing pages for UK-only targeting.

United States

US
Message-based formats
Available

Conversation Ads run without the EU/EEA/Switzerland restriction.

Governing regime

CCPA / CPRA. California's B2B and employee-data exemptions expired 1 Jan 2023 (AB 25 / AB 1355 / AB 1281 not renewed). Business-contact data in ABM lists touching California residents is now in scope.

Decision culture

Fast-moving, champion-led. Often an internal champion drives the process with executive sign-off, rather than slower group consensus.

Localization

English-native. Tone and proof points differ from UK (ROI framing, case-study style) but no language barrier.

Germany-led DACH

DACH
Message-based formats
Unavailable in EU/EEA/CH

Following a Nov 2021 CJEU ruling that native inbox advertising needs direct-marketing consent under the ePrivacy framework, LinkedIn stopped EU-targeted Message/Conversation Ads (new campaigns blocked 15 Dec 2021, existing ones suspended 10 Jan 2022).

Governing regime

GDPR + BDSG. Germany's Federal Data Protection Act adds works-council (Betriebsrat) co-determination rights over some employee-data processing. A works agreement cannot itself legitimate otherwise-inadmissible processing (German court ruling reported Jan 2025).

Decision culture

Consensus-driven. Formal sign-off and longer internal validation typically precede commercial conversations — plan reporting windows accordingly.

Localization

German materially outperforms English. True below enterprise-only accounts; enterprise buying groups are more English-tolerant, but mid-market is not.

Singapore-led APAC

APAC
Message-based formats
Confirm in Campaign Manager

Singapore sits outside the EU/EEA/Switzerland exclusion, so formats are presumed available — but coverage isn't centrally documented by geography, so verify before planning.

Governing regime

PDPA (Singapore). A distinct consent-and-purpose-limitation regime, not equivalent to GDPR. Treat as its own compliance track, not a GDPR analogue.

Decision culture

Not representative of wider APAC. Singapore is English-language and Western-business-norm-adjacent; this does not extend to Japan, Korea or Greater China buying culture.

Localization

English viable — for Singapore only. Do not treat English-only creative as a proxy for the rest of APAC if the account list extends beyond Singapore/Hong Kong hubs.

Decision-culture notes are directional, not universal — treat as a planning prior, not a rule for every account.

Is the target account list evaluated by one centralised, cross-border buying committee, or by in-market/regional committees?

Does the plan rely on message-based formats (Conversation Ads) in any EU/EEA/Switzerland market?

Does language localisation materially change conversion quality in at least one target market (e.g. DACH below enterprise, or APAC beyond Singapore/Hong Kong)?

Is your target-account list in every market comfortably above LinkedIn's practical minimum audience size (commonly cited around 300)?

Recommendation

Answer the questions above

Select one answer for each question to see the recommendation.

Recommendation

A unified structure fits your answers

Your account list is centrally decided, doesn't depend on a restricted message format, and localisation isn't a material factor — the exception case for a single, unified campaign structure.

  • None of the market-splitting triggers apply — re-check this if your account list or market mix changes.

Recommendation

Split by market: separate campaign groups, budgets and thresholds

At least one structural factor makes a shared template unreliable across your markets.

  • Regional buying committees mean each market is a separate decision unit — a shared campaign group would blend distinct audiences.
  • A message-format plan cannot run as one structure if it includes an EU/EEA/Switzerland market — Conversation Ads aren't available there, so at minimum that market needs a different format mix.
  • Where localisation changes conversion quality, a shared budget and qualification threshold will misread the localised market's real performance.
  • At least one market may sit below the practical minimum audience size — consider folding that market into a regional structure rather than giving it a standalone campaign group.
  • Check each market's target-account list against LinkedIn's minimum audience guidance before finalising how many standalone campaign groups to build.
