Why programmatic advertising matters in Sydney
In real time, programmatic advertising uses AI and automation to buy digital ad inventory across websites, apps, and channels. It offers greater reach, intelligent targeting, and substantial ROI than traditional display buying.
In Australia, internet ad spending reached $16.4 billion in 2024, growing 11% yearly, with programmatic playing a significant role in this growth. For Sydney businesses, programmatic provides scalable access to premium publishers while keeping campaigns measurable and cost-efficient.
At Click Click Media, we run all programmatic campaigns through Criteo – a platform designed to deliver highly effective remarketing and prospecting by combining AI-driven targeting with one of the world’s largest commerce data sets.

Programmatic Ads FAQs
We’ve answered the most common questions about running and scaling programmatic campaigns – from how platforms like Criteo work and the role of data-driven audience targeting, to budgeting, creative optimisation, and performance tracking. Got a question that’s not covered below? Reach out to our team – we’re always happy to help.
What is programmatic advertising?
It’s the automated buying of ad inventory across websites, apps, and platforms. Using Criteo, we deliver ads to the right audiences at the right time with AI-driven efficiency.
How is programmatic different from Google Display Ads?
Display Ads run on Google’s Display Network. Programmatic through Criteo reaches further, with access to thousands of premium publishers, stronger AI for remarketing, and powerful prospecting tools.
How much does programmatic cost in Sydney?
Budgets vary by industry and targeting. CPMs can range from under AUD $5 for broad placements to AUD $25+ for premium. Most Sydney campaigns perform best starting at $5,000/month in spend.
Can programmatic deliver both awareness and conversions?
Yes. Prospecting campaigns build awareness with new audiences, while remarketing converts past visitors. Together, they deliver a full-funnel programmatic strategy.
How do you keep programmatic campaigns brand-safe?
We configure brand safety controls in Criteo, apply exclusions, and review placements regularly. You get transparency on where ads run, with reporting aligned to ROI.
How quickly will I see results?
Engagement can be seen within weeks, while ROI typically builds over 60–90 days as campaigns optimise and audiences mature.
