2. Search Ads
This ad type places the advertisement when a search engine shows search results. Of course, the ad shows up when the keyword is related to the ad. But sometimes the ad does not show up because the native ad also matches the device owner’s preference and search engine history. This is also a kind of search engine marketing (SEM) strategy.
 
3. Recommendation Widgets
This type of ad is usually filled with content from the same website. For example, a website with article content wants the reader to visit other articles to increase the number of visitors per article. Usually, they will put a widget with the words “Read also…”, “See also…”, and “Recommended for you…” below an article, followed by the article link.
