From commuters on I-275 glancing at their news apps to families checking weather before a storm, your customers are online all day. The challenge isn’t finding them—it’s reaching the right people with the right message at the right moment.
Salem Surround’s programmatic display advertising in Tampa uses data, audience targeting, and real-time optimization to do exactly that. We place your brand on the sites, apps, and streaming environments Tampa Bay residents already use—news, sports, lifestyle, weather, and more—so every impression has a chance to become a measurable result.
Instead of guessing where to buy banner ads or manually managing dozens of placements, you get a unified programmatic strategy tuned to your local market and your business goals.
Tampa Bay is a fast-growing, competitive region. New residents are moving into Wesley Chapel and Riverview, tourism fills hotels in Downtown and Clearwater Beach, and local businesses compete for attention across Ybor City, Hyde Park, and Westshore.
Programmatic display gives you a way to:
stay visible while prospects research options and compare brands
reach local audiences that may not be actively searching yet
support your search, social, and traditional media with consistent messaging
follow up with website visitors who left before calling, booking, or buying
With the right strategy, display impressions stop being “background noise” and start working as a smart, always-on awareness and retargeting engine for your Tampa business.
Learn More About Programmatic Display
Choosing a programmatic partner isn’t just about technology. It’s about local understanding, clear strategy, and disciplined optimization.
As a programmatic display agency in Tampa, Salem Surround offers:
We build campaigns around how people in Tampa Bay actually live, commute, and spend time online. That means:
focusing on neighborhoods and zip codes you care about—Downtown Tampa, New Tampa, Brandon, Carrollwood, Clearwater, St. Pete, and more
adjusting for seasonal patterns like tourism peaks, Gasparilla, spring training, and storm season
tailoring creative for different audiences, from young professionals in Channelside to families in Westchase
Your future customer might see your ad on a mobile device during lunch, then later on a tablet at home, and finally act from a desktop at work. Our programmatic display campaigns reach people across:
mobile phones and tablets
desktops and laptops
connected TV and over-the-top (OTT) streaming environments
This cross-device visibility keeps your brand in view as customers move through their day.
We don’t simply “turn on” display campaigns and walk away. Our team monitors performance, then refines targeting, placements, and creative based on:
which sites and apps drive engaged visits
which audiences respond best to certain messages
what time of day or day of week delivers stronger engagement in Tampa Bay
The result is a campaign that gets smarter over time and stays aligned with your goals.
Because Salem Surround is part of Salem Media Group, we can connect your programmatic display with:
PPC and SEO for search visibility
social media campaigns for conversation and engagement
streaming audio and radio advertising across Tampa stations
email and other digital tactics for follow-up
Your ads work together instead of operating in silos, surrounding your ideal audience online and offline.
Every business has different objectives—brand lift, lead generation, event attendance, online sales, or foot traffic. We build programmatic display campaigns that match those needs.
We use precise geo-targeting to focus your impressions where they matter most. Depending on your business, that might mean:
a radius around your storefront or office
select zip codes in Hillsborough, Pinellas, and Pasco counties
neighborhood-level targeting for areas like Hyde Park, Seminole Heights, or Carrollwood
city-level campaigns covering Tampa, St. Petersburg, Clearwater, Brandon, and beyond
This ensures your message reaches people who can realistically become customers.
Beyond geography, we refine campaigns by:
interests and affinities (home improvement, healthcare, finance, education, faith, entertainment)
demographic segments appropriate for your business
behaviors like recent movers, in-market shoppers, or people researching specific services
Whether you’re a roofer preparing for storm season, a Christian school planning enrollment, or a healthcare provider growing a service line, we can focus impressions on the audiences most likely to respond.
Programmatic display is a powerful way to bring back visitors who left your site without converting. With retargeting we:
show tailored display ads to people who have already visited your website or landing page
segment audiences based on pages viewed or actions taken
encourage them to return and complete a form, schedule an appointment, or request more information
This keeps your brand top of mind while prospects compare options across Tampa Bay.
Streaming is a major part of how Tampa residents consume content. We can extend your programmatic strategy into:
connected TV ads on popular streaming platforms and devices
OTT placements tied to premium content your local audience watches
CTV and OTT give your brand a television-style presence with digital-level targeting and reporting.
Strong creative is essential. We develop or advise on display ads that:
highlight your value clearly in a few words
use location cues that resonate with Tampa Bay viewers
feature branding that’s consistent with your website, social, and offline media
include a direct, simple call-to-action
Our goal is to make each impression count, not just fill space on a page.

A clear process keeps your campaigns aligned with your goals and easy to understand.
Discovery & Goal Setting
We start by understanding your organization, service areas, current marketing, and what success looks like—brand lift, form fills, calls, visits, or online sales.
Audience & Geo Planning
Next, we identify the right mix of geography and audience segments for Tampa Bay. We select areas and behaviors that match your best customers, not just broad impressions.
Campaign Build & Creative Alignment
We structure campaigns, placements, and creative assets to match your objectives. Messaging and visuals are aligned with your other marketing so your brand feels consistent everywhere it appears.
Launch & Early Optimization
Once live, we watch initial performance closely—tuning targeting, adjusting bids, and removing low-value inventory. Early refinements help protect your budget and set the campaign up for long-term success.
Ongoing Management & Testing
We regularly test new audiences, creative variations, and inventory sources. As Tampa’s market shifts—with seasonal demand, events, or news cycles—we adapt your campaigns accordingly.
Reporting & Recommendations
You receive clear reporting on reach, engagement, and site actions—not just generic impression counts. We connect the dots between programmatic activity and your broader marketing goals, then recommend next steps.
