An important insight: In 2025, advertising is experiencing a shift from clicks to attention. CTR is an indicator of the attractiveness of an ad, but dwell time shows true engagement. Campaigns that are optimized to increase user attention yield 41% higher brand lift. However, there is no main metric - you need a portfolio of KPIs for specific business goals, so let's talk about it further. What are metrics in digital advertising Metrics are tools for measuring the effectiveness of advertising campaigns that help to evaluate the effectiveness of the money invested. What are metrics in simple terms? This is a numerical indicator that demonstrates a specific aspect of audience interaction with an ad or content. Marketing metrics fall into several categories: Attractiveness metrics: CTR, CPM, reach; Engagement metrics: dwell time, time on page, scroll depth; Performance metrics: CPA, CPO,...

If you think that traffic patterns are something from the last century, it is not. In 2025, it is one of the most profitable areas in arbitrage, especially when it comes to gambling. Real statistics of buyers show a crazy ROI for those who know how to cast correctly. And let's be honest: when a user sees a regular casino ad, he immediately realizes that they want to part with their money. But when he sees a story about a "secret scheme" that helped an ordinary guy earn 50 thousand euros in 2 months, it is a completely different matter. Psychology is at work here: a person receives not advertising, but seemingly valuable information. What are link building schemes and why does it work Scheme traffic is when you do not sell casinos directly but create content around "secret strategies"...

Traffic arbitrage is a market where there is a fight for every click and every installation. And, unfortunately, not always fair. Baers know this situation very well: you pour traffic, you see one thing in the statistics, but in fact the income is quite different. Somewhere the offer falls, somewhere the advertiser "cuts" the statistics, somewhere traffic goes into the void. The most unpleasant thing is that you don't even realize where exactly you are losing money. OneTraff changes the rules We originally built the platform with a different philosophy - maximum openness and control for the baer. OneTraff doesn't just give you a handy tool, it shows you an honest picture: where traffic really works, where it's being lost, what the user engagement is at absolutely every stage. Feature that helps combat shave We continue to strengthen the platform...

In our industry, merch has long ceased to be just a "souvenir". It's not a cap with a logo that you leave in a drawer after an event, or a T-shirt that you're ashamed to wear. Today, merchandise is an extension of the brand, its language and the way it speaks to its community. But how do you create things that you want to wear every day, not just at a conference? How to find a balance between brand recognition and style? And what's more important: to make one "wow-thing" for a few people or to give basic but thoughtful things to hundreds? We talked to the FRBS and 1win teams about what merch means to them, why they do not pursue pathos, what items have become favorites, and how even an ordinary shopper can turn into a must-have of...

Imagine: you just decoded what CPA is, and you almost feel like you’re “in the know.” But then three new abbreviations appear on the horizon — CPL, CPS, CPI.

Once upon a time, the idea that a machine could write an advertising text or a banner for social media sounded like a science fiction story. However, 2025 proves that artificial intelligence has become commonplace in marketing, and specialists who know how to work with it save businesses money.

The world is not waiting, and while someone is suffering with spreadsheets, neurons are already generating strategies, calculating ROI, and selecting tracks for viral Reels. This article will help to understand why AI marketers will become more valuable every year, what skills...
