Native Advertising
The key to Native Advertising is that your ad blends in perfectly with the template and the style of the website and its content to make it look like part of the website. In that way, the user may not even recognize that it is an ad and clicks on it. In any way, you still have to brand your advertising somewhere with a small “Advertisement” emblem.
