Advantages of Audio Advertising

Audio ads on Yandex.Radio and Yandex.Music combine the measurability and other technologies of online advertising with the benefits of traditional radio commercials.

When listening to music, users are emotionally involved and open to advertising messages. Unlike offline radio, Yandex.Music and Radio have no prime time or off time. They are listened to at all times, day and night.

All these advantages make audio ads on Yandex services an optimal advertising channel, for businesses that prefer traditional radio advertising and for digital advertisers alike.
