Choosing just the right ad server for your website can be a tough decision to make. The choice of ad server can make or break the deal for publishers in terms of website monetization. Not all ad servers can meet the monetization goals of every website. However, all publishers want an ad server that has a user-friendly interface, provides solutions for both guaranteed and non-guaranteed inventories, and offers fast ad loads. DoubleClick for Publishers ( DFP) is one such one-stop-shop ad server that also lets publishers maximize revenue from AdSense ads. There are a number of impressive features in DFP and new publishers can find it a little hard to wrap their heads around all the features of DFP. We, at Blognife, are here to help them get accustomed to the most popular ad server in the world.

  • In this tutorial, we are going to learn how to generate passback tags in DFP. A passback tag is an ad tag that is trafficked through a third-party ad server and not placed directly on the page. This happens when a tag is passed back to the DFP to find an ad to serve, as the third-party ad network could not find an ad that meets the selection criteria or one that meets the minimum CPM that was previously agreed upon. In such cases, a house ad is displayed from the publisher’s own DFP network.
