The Challenge
Despite their high-intent audience and valuable content library, Smavel wasn’t fully capitalizing on their traffic.
They faced four key hurdles:
- Large volumes of content containing brand or product mentions were going unmonetized.
- Manual link placement was too time-consuming to be viable at scale.
- Monetization needed to be non-intrusive and maintain editorial integrity.
They required smarter contextual targeting to improve click-through and conversions.
