In Steve McClellan’s AdWeek article from 10/12/09 titled “Doing Battle With Media Complexity,” he discusses the very salient and real problem facing advertisers today: not knowing where, when, to which audience their ads are being shown or with what program their ads run on television-placed campaigns.  Any problem that has the possibility of damaging a brand’s good name in the marketplace is a significant one indeed.

Call Off the Ad Network Apocalypse!

At Adify, we’re in the business of helping enterprise media companies and niche entrepreneurs create ad networks; in fact, we just announced 200+ networks in June.  We’ve definitely contributed to the large numbers of ad networks in the market today, most of which, as Warren Lee points out today in AdAge, were predicted to be “toast” by now.

But, as Lee explains, the market factors that spurned the rise of ad networks – increased online usage, growing number of websites, fragmentation, publisher lack of a sales force -  aren’t going away.  Ad networks are solving problems for both advertisers and publishers, and really only creating problems for the media buyers and planners who need to understand what each of them can contribute to the overall media plan.

Movin’ On Up – Adify Media Moves Up in Network Ranking by comScore for Online Buying Power

Posted by Selena Yang on 31 July 2009 | 0 Comments

Back in early June, Adify Media announced that we were recently ranked by comScore as one of the networks with the highest Online Buying Power Index (BPI) which we thought was very cool. If you read this, you may have scratched your head and thought to yourself, “That’s great and all but what the heck is a BPI?!”

BPI is not just another trivial acronym to throw around. It stands for “Buying Power Index.” comScore measures a site visitor’s online buying power and then indexes it to the total Internet population. Anything over a score of 100 meets the average spending level tracked but anything over 100 means, on average, that a site visitor’s purchase was more in $$ terms than the average Internet user.

Adify Media’s BPI has gone up in the month of June from 149 to 153, greatly surpassing many of the larger networks you’re familiar with including Yahoo! (111), Google (114), Microsoft (116) and Platform-A/AOL Advertising (110). Of the top ad networks, our audience demonstrates extremely high buying power online – users on Adify Media are 53% more likely to buy online. To put it as simply as possible, our audience is the sweet spot – they have a greater propensity to buy more things online than audiences anywhere else. To any advertiser or brand, that is something pretty cool indeed.
