§ WHERE ADS RUN

Seven networks, four screens.

Every ad on Knect runs on one or more networks, the way a buy on Google is Search or Display. Each one is a different part of Knect with its own reach. The wizard ranks them for what you want to happen and what you have made, or you pick them yourself.

Sold by budget means you pick a budget in the wizard and it runs. Ask us means our team books it.

§ THE FEED

The Feed.

A card between the posts people stop on, printed like everything else on the page.

The widest reach on Knect. Everybody, every day, on the phone and the computer.
