What are AMP HTML Ads?
AMP was developed by Google back in 2015 to speed up mobile web page loading. AMP pages are cached on Google servers the closest to the visitor's geographical location, making them load faster on the mobile web. AMP HTML Ads can be considered an extension of this framework, allowing you to serve ads that are performant and secure.
What are the advantages of AMP HTML Ads?
- They load faster, as static libraries are cached
- Lazy-loading enabled by default, improving CTR
- Self-aware performance: disables animations when off-screen
- Uses efficient Same-Origin Iframes
How do I serve AMP HTML Ads?

In Summary
Over the years, this framework has proved its efficiency and major publishers support AMP pages by now (Apr 2021). If you're converting your pages to AMP too, make sure to update your ad tags as well. Your ad server vendor should be able to provide you with AMP ad tags. Faster loaded ads increase your CTR and, ultimately, your revenue and/or inventory quality.
