English term or phrase: compliment
1. Text Ads

Great to compliment and integrate into content, fill white space and as an unobtrusive type of ad yet drives strong response, especially when the look-and-feel is edited to complement your site.

"compliment"应该是"complement" (原文有问题)


Explanation:
As explained here previously (http://bit.ly/H6q9Iq), "compliment" should be written as "complement" instead.

In this context, the author actually means that text ads compl{e}ment the website content. Here are several examples of how this is used:

http://www.wisegeek.com/what-are-the-different-types-of-digi... : Since the reader of the ad is interested in the topic that the content contains, the ads correlate with the topic because the items complement the content.

http://www.affili.net/uk/affiliates/dynamic-ad-creative.aspx : The creatives are generated using real-time product feeds from the affilinet platform, and use automatic and intelligent keyword search and a range of targeting mechanisms to ensure a constant flow of context-sensitive display ads that complement the website content.
