Mid-Roll Ad

An ad placed in the middle of a long video, not just at the start.

A mid-roll is an advertisement inserted partway through a video rather than before it. Mid-rolls require longer content to be eligible and significantly increase ad revenue, which is one reason creators value long-form watch time.
