Among brands with at least ten ads carrying text in twelve months, the median share of unique texts is 16.6 percent. One text runs in roughly six ads. Video share among typed ads: median 11.6 percent, and 20 brands run no video at all. Where dynamic creative is used, it fills a median 42 percent of ads.
