"Life as a publisher used to be pretty straightforward. You simply sold your best inventory at the highest CPM your sales team could get, and whatever was left over was filled in with remnant ads. Aside from someone making sure to avoid channel conflict, nobody paid much attention to what we now call RTB.
Flash forward to today. RTB digital display advertising now accounts for 22% of all display ad spending. Last year, RTB grew at 76.5%, and by 2018, RTB is expected to account for one-third of all display ad spending, or $12 billion.*"

Per the MRC, “'Fraud' is not intended to represent fraud as defined in various laws, statutes and ordinances or as conventionally used in U.S. Court or other legal proceedings, but rather a custom definition strictly for advertising measurement purposes. Also per the MRC, “‘Invalid Traffic’ is defined generally as traffic that does not meet certain ad serving quality or completeness criteria, or otherwise does not represent legitimate ad traffic that should be included in measurement counts. Among the reasons why ad traffic may be deemed invalid is it is a result of non-human traffic (spiders, bots, etc.), or activity designed to produce fraudulent traffic.”
