Capture the attention of millions of users on the world's largest video platform
YouTube is the second largest search engine in the world and the internet's main video resource. Video advertising has a unique advantage: it combines visuals, sound, and text, building brand loyalty 5 times stronger than regular text ads. At the same time, the user is engaged in watching content and maximally focused on the screen.
We set up professional video campaigns on YouTube via the Google Ads account. Our approach excludes showing ads on children's channels (where clicks occur by accident) and to non-target audiences. We set up pinpoint targeting by specific competitor channels, keywords (showing videos to those who searched for your product in Google search), and custom interests.
For brand awareness, we use reach-focused video campaigns, and for target actions, we use Demand Gen with video and other creatives. Placements, conversion events, and launch feasibility are determined based on the advertiser's country and current Google Ads restrictions.

Video advertising that pays off
You pay only for actual views (when a user watches the video up to the 30th second or clicks a button). If the viewer clicked “Skip” in the first few seconds, the impression is completely free for you.
Why video advertising with us is more effective
We turn media reach into a performance tool with precise analytics.
Google intent targeting
We collect an audience of people who entered transactional queries (for example, "order CRM system") into the Google search engine over the last 7 days.
Then we show these "hot" users your video ad on YouTube, intercepting them before they make a purchase from competitors.
Exclusion of kids' channels
Most of a beginner's budget in YouTube Ads is wasted on cartoons and kids' blogs, where toddlers make the clicks. We load pre-made exclusion lists (over 10 000 kids' and entertainment channels) into campaigns.
Your video will be seen only by adult, solvent users in relevant content.
Interactive leadgen (Action)
For target actions, we use Demand Gen. Campaigns can cover YouTube, Discover, Gmail, and the Google Display Network. The set of placements and creatives is tailored to the goal; the result is evaluated based on configured conversions.
It is convenient for the user to perform a target action in one click without interrupting video viewing for long.
Stages of launching YouTube ads
Sequential path from video analysis and scripting to conversion control.
Video Audit and Scripts
We analyze your video materials. If necessary, we write technical specifications for editing or develop scripts with strong hooks in the first 5 seconds.
GA4 Analytics Setup
We configure Google Analytics 4 and Google Tag Manager. We set up conversion tracking from videos: button clicks, form submissions, view depth.
Selection of channels and keywords
We parse a list of target YouTube channels in your niche, collect transactional semantics in Google, and form exclusion lists (negative channels).
Launch of test campaigns
We launch ads in In-Stream and Shorts formats. We track VTR (view-through rate) metrics, CPV (cost per view), and click-through rates.
Placement optimization
We analyze reports for specific videos where ads ran. We disable ineffective channels and reallocate budget to high-converting videos.
Budget scaling
We feed successful combinations into Google Ads Smart Bidding automated strategies to buy out the maximum number of leads from video ads.

We use modern Google tools to manage video campaigns.

-
Is it mandatory to have a professionally shot expensive video?
No, that is a common myth. YouTube ads do not require Hollywood production. Often simple, "live" videos shot on a good smartphone inspire more trust from the audience, as they look natural in the user's feed. The main thing is a strong script: hook attention in the first 5 seconds (before the "Skip" button appears), clearly describe the client's problem, and give a clear call to action at the end. If necessary, we can help edit a video from your source files or create an animated motion video. -
What is the minimum cost per view (CPV) on YouTube?
Cost per view (CPV) depends on geo-targeting, niche competition, and audience accuracy. On average across the CIS and Runet, the cost of one quality view (when the user watched the video up to the 30th second) ranges from 1 to 5 rubles. We optimize targeting and creatives to keep CPV at a minimum, cutting off random non-target impressions. -
Is it possible to show my ads in specific competitors' videos?
Yes, Google Ads allows you to set up targeting for specific placements — you can specify the addresses of specific competitors' YouTube channels or even links to their individual popular videos. Your ad will be shown to viewers before or during these videos (if monetization on competitors' channels is enabled in Google). This is a great way to capture the hottest audience. -
What if we have a complex B2B product? Will video work?
For B2B, video advertising works great, but the strategy changes. We do not target the general public. We compile databases of people searching for professional software or services in Google Search, or gather a list of business-themed channels. A short video review of your case study or a 1-minute program demo allows you to quickly communicate product value to the decision maker (DM) more effectively than cold calls.
