Study: Premium Video Ads Outperform YouTube
A new Video Advertising Bureau (VAB) study, conducted with TVision, finds premium video platforms on connected TV outperform YouTube in key engagement metrics.

YouTube ranks near the bottom for sustained attention and session duration, limiting ad impression opportunities. The findings suggest advertisers can achieve greater efficiency and storytelling impact by shifting spend to premium CTV inventory.
