Examples
Viral advertising
Easily spread without having to pay for placing it on different platforms because the audience spreads it for you. Viral campaigns are tough to create - Viral campaigns have to be original, relevant and balance the company’s brand and commercial messages with using the appeals needed. Old spice Image result for old spice
Native advertising
 It's creative and can tell a story without having the product right in your face with video ads. Sometimes the focus is lost and some cannot understand what the advert is about until usually the end with video ads and sometimes unknown what is being presented. This can also be deceitful. Trending twitter - E.g: Samsung television

Buzzfeed - E.g: Links to other sites but are disguised as their own and apart of their own page

Targeted advertising
 It's a clever way to personally address your target audience by giving them suggestions to products without them having to watch other ads that they are not interested in. Most would say it intrudes your privacy and cannot be trusted as it disturbs your social media of which is usually used to relax and get away from ads. Facebook advert - E.g: Wish, movies, TV shows etc

Sponsored stories on other sites which appeal to your interests.

Shoppables and Influencers
 Quick and straight to the point with buying and their ads. Can be annoying as they can consume your feed on instagram and snapchat as some ads are shown straight after viewing a story. Snapchat - E.g: Adidas advert for their shoes and different movie trailers etc
