Digital billboard advertising uses electronic outdoor screens to display advertising creative in high-visibility locations. Unlike traditional printed billboards, digital displays can rotate advertisements and allow creative to be updated without physically replacing printed material. Digital billboards can support brand awareness, promotions, property campaigns, events, product launches and other location-focused campaigns.

DOOH means Digital Out-of-Home advertising. It refers to digital advertising screens that reach audiences while they are outside their homes. These can include roadside digital billboards, retail screens, transport environments and other public digital displays.

A static billboard displays one printed advertisement for the booked campaign period, while a digital billboard uses an electronic display that can rotate advertisements from multiple campaigns. Digital billboards offer flexibility for updating creative, while static billboards can provide continuous visibility in one location. The right format depends on the campaign goal, location, budget and required exposure. Read more in our guide on digital vs static billboards.
