Google Ad Manager
Google 旗下发布商广告管理平台（原 DFP），支持网站、App、视频和 CTV 广告位全生命周期管理，兼具 SSP 和 Ad Server 功能。
主要用途
Google Ad Manager is the ad server that runs the monetization logic for most professional publishers. It manages the full inventory lifecycle: defining ad units, trafficking direct-sold orders and line items, setting price floors and priority rules, and letting direct, programmatic guaranteed, private marketplace, and open auction demand compete for each impression. Demand includes Google's own AdX exchange alongside third-party exchanges and header bidding integrations. Forecasting predicts available inventory for sales teams, while reporting covers delivery, yield, and programmatic revenue in one place. It serves web, app, video, and CTV. The free tier handles substantial volume; Ad Manager 360 adds enterprise features, support, and higher limits.
所在链路

新手提示
- If you only run AdSense-style monetization, you do not need Ad Manager yet; it earns its complexity when direct deals or header bidding enter the picture.
- Line item priorities and price rules interact in non-obvious ways, so document your setup, because debugging delivery later depends on it.
- Take the time to learn the forecasting tools before selling direct campaigns, as overselling inventory damages advertiser relationships.
