How do you classify display advertisement traffic from Social Networks?
If the social network (like Facebook, Youtube, etc.) use their own ad network, the data will appear as Social (we don’t distinguish paid Social currently). If the social traffic came through a 3rd party ad network, as long as it’s one that we are able to identify, the data will be classified as Display.
Why do I see mail.google.com as a publisher in the Display module?
Some Google Discovery ads run from within Gmail, such as promotions for certain items, which appear as a display ad in an email.
Because Google Display Network (GDN) is one of our known ad networks, most traffic via Google Discovery ads should be classified as Display traffic. If there are cases where we cannot detect the ad network, this traffic would most likely be classified as Email traffic.
