sidebar ads
Peripheral web marketing
Sidebar ads are advertisements displayed in the vertical margins of a webpage, typically alongside the main content.
These narrow rectangular banners occupy space that would otherwise be empty, visible as users scroll through articles or browse sites.
The format has become less prominent as web traffic shifted to mobile devices, where screen width doesn't accommodate sidebars.
