Which term is used for advertising on outdoor displays in public spaces?

• A. Public transport advertising
• B. Billboard (hoarding)
• C. Skyscraper ad
• D. Commercial

Answer: (D)

Outdoor advertising on large displays along streets and highways is commonly called a billboard. This term captures the broad, fixed format you see along roads that broadcasts messages to passing drivers and pedestrians. In some regions, people also use hoarding to mean the same thing, referring to the large outdoor boards. The other terms describe different things: public transport advertising covers ads on buses, trains, or transit spaces; a skyscraper ad is a specific tall-building display rather than the general category of outdoor boards; a commercial is a general term for paid advertisements across any medium, not specifically outdoor displays.
