Abstract

Certain embodiments herein relate to targeting ads for purchase by leveraging relationships between advertisers and publishers. Ad campaigns may be established between an ad device associated with an advertiser and publisher devices associated with publishers. An ad campaign for displaying an ad may be determined based on information associated with a communication session from a user device (e.g., as identified in a cookie) and/or information associated with a user utilizing the user device. An ad device may activate one or more established ad campaigns as part of an auction process, and may subsequently provide one or more ads for displaying on a web page according to attributes that may characterize the ad campaigns.
