New technologies are allowing for a more personalized web based experience for online users. This has led to effective marketing for online advertisers, and a better browsing experience for search engine users. This has further allowed for:

1. Customized Ad Units
Personalized web search has allowed companies to personalize the ad units based on the search queries of online users. Relevant ads are being displayed as a result.

For example, a user searching for football can be shown an ad unit showing the live streaming of a current game, or containing links to football merchandise.

This has also increased the CTR of ad units, which is resulting in greater revenue for publishers, and more visitors for the advertisers.

2. Target Audience Reach
By customizing the web experience based on the behavior and personal interests of the users, advertisers are now able to reach their target audience more effectively. This is increasing their chances of selling products and services as they’re offering something related to the interest of the consumers.

3. Cost Effectiveness
Customized web search has reduced costs for companies who offer their products and services to customers. They know that the ads are being presented to users who may potentially buy them, and they have to pay a fraction of a cost compared to traditional marketing tools required to reach the same target audience. Most advertisers rely on the pay per click model which is cost effective.
