Advanced targeting brings you closer to your audience

DFA’s sophisticated targeting ensures your ads reach the right audience. Choose from a variety of targeting options, including:

  • Audience segment
  • Geography by DMA, countries, states, ZIP, and area codes
  • Dayparting
  • Website content, categories, and site placements
  • Browser type and operating system
  • Keywords

Creative optimization puts your best ads forward

With DFA creative optimization, you can adjust your campaigns to serve only the best-performing creatives based on criteria and goals you set. For example, you can optimize by clickthrough rate, post-click conversion activities, or post-impression activities. Also, DFA's minimum percentage feature prevents creative burnout and drop-off of ads that might improve over time. As a result, you won't need to monitor your campaign placements and creatives constantly or wait for publishers to replace poorly-performing creatives.

Integrated reporting clarifies results

Report Central, DFA’s reporting dashboard, provides data for your online media plan, including display ads, rich media, video, and search. You can customize and save frequently-run reports, view performance data across multiple web channels, and automate report delivery.

A unified platform improves efficiency

DFA shares the DART platform with MediaVisor, DART Search, DoubleClick Rich Media and Video, and the DoubleClick Advertising Exchange. Together, these solutions can help you master even the most complex online advertising strategy.
