Summary

For Display Ads (Auction), we have enhanced the usability of placement targeting.

Change the placement URL of the LINE App

We have changed the placement URL of the LINE App as follows. Use the changed placement URL (common to OS) .

  • Before
    • iOS: itunes.apple.com/443904275
    • Android: play.google.com/jp.naver.line.android
  • After
    • Common to OS: ad.line.me

The system updated the URLs before the change that were registered in the placement list to the URLs after the change.

Specify the ad place of LINE App

Previously, you could only specify the entire LINE App, but now you can specify by ad places, such as Chat list, and LINE NEWS.
Download the document for details in the "Note" section.
For about one month after the release, the "Impressions" and "User size" appear for LINE App places in the placement list creation/modifying view may be lower than the actual numbers.

New placement URLs that can specify the entire services of LYC

We have started offering new placement URLs that you can specify for each Yahoo! JAPAN, LINE App, and LINE Family Apps.

Ad place name Placement URL Target ad place
Yahoo! JAPAN - All pages yahoo.co.jp

Sites and apps with yahoo.co.jp domain

*Pages other than those under the preceding domains may not be included in the list, even if they are under Yahoo! JAPAN.

LINE App - All ad.line.me All media in the LINE App
LINE Family Apps - All apps familyapp.line.me LINE Family Apps - All apps

*If you want to specify individual media or services under the site or app, specify the individual placement URL.

Improvement of placement URL search

When creating a placement list, the main services provided by LYC can search by "Ad place name" in addition to searching by URL.
Tools: Campaign Management Tool and Campaign Editor

Add report items

We have added a new "Ad place name" to the report item.
