Structural walkthroughs

Three problem areas we examine first

Header bidding timeouts

We trace where bid requests stall, compare timeout settings against partner response windows, and adjust the wrapper so slower demand does not block the auction.

The output is a clearer timing map and a documented configuration that the ad operations team can maintain.

GAM line-item contention

Overlapping targeting and priority settings can starve valuable inventory. We map each line item against its competitors and rebuild the hierarchy so delivery follows intent.

Changes are staged and checked against delivery reports before they are considered settled.

Server-to-server demand architecture

For high-traffic content networks we design server-side connections that reduce client-side load, define authentication and failover paths, and keep each demand partner's data flow visible.

Our approach

A standard diagnostic frame for every new setup

Every new publisher partnership begins with the same review: current GAM structure, header bidding configuration, demand connections, and reporting sources. This keeps findings comparable across very different sites.

Recommendations are then fitted to the publisher's own traffic, formats, and goals rather than applied as a template.
