Push ads in January 2026 at RichAds ad network

Push ads are one of the most trustworthy looking ad formats, strongly resembling the appearance of the push notifications users receive from social networks regularly. To start getting push ads the users are to agree to subscription on a publisher’s website, but from then on they will get them anytime they turn online, regardless of the web page they’re on. This makes it easier to show push notifications to the audience that’s already interested to receive advertising and approach them more effectively.

The top geos for push notifications in January 2026 have noticeably changed in comparison to the previous month.

Now they are safe to test on push ads.

For mobile traffic on push-notifications in January 2026 the verticals that showed the best performance are Gambling, Sweepstakes, Betting, and Dating. On desktop devices the highest converting offers on push advertisements in January are Antivirus, Finance, Gambling, and Betting verticals.

In-page push ads in January 2026 at RichAds ad network

Initially the push advertising notifications couldn’t approach the Apple devices audience due to iOS restrictions on subscribing to the ads mailing. With in-page push ads it was finally made possible: they perform more like pop-up ads, don’t require the agreeing to subscription and look as trustworthy as push ads. Now the in-page ads have become one of the main traffic sources to effectively engage the iOS audience with the advantages of push advertising notifications!

Best geos to run in-page ads

Compared to the month before, the best geos to launch in-page ads in January 2026 are a bit different. The Philippines and India are no longer on the top, since Indonesia, Türkiye, and Germany have shown way better results this month. Now they’re among the previously effective geos to test on in-page push ads: the USA, Poland, and Japan.

Pop ads in January 2026 at RichAds ad network

Pop ads are one of the oldest ad formats on the internet, since they’ve been around for about 20 years now. Such a long time is quite justified by how the pops work: they don’t require creatives, only a landing or pre-landing page, also they appear if a user click anywhere on the publisher’s site with a special script, and need only basic targeting options to start. This provides popunders with huge traffic volumes worldwide along with high CR.
