Political, alcohol, gambling and more ads will no longer be accepted at the top of the YouTube homepage

YouTube announced on Monday that political or campaign advertisements are prohibited on the top of the website and App homepage, and advertisements for alcohol, gambling and prescription drugs are no longer allowed. YouTube sent an email to advertisers that last year they no longer allowed advertisers to book Masthead Ads all day long. Today’s changes are based on last year’s adjustments.

Open the YouTube homepage, the large ad that appears at the top is Masthead Ads. For example, on election day in 2020, Trump once invested money in advertising, occupying an important position on the homepage. YouTube has banned all-day reservations and replaced them with more targeted formats.

We believe that the new The changes will give users a better experience.” The adjustment takes effect immediately.
