Burst Media and the Daily Jolt Launch the Daily Jolt College Ad Network
Burlington, MA-July 17, 2008- Burst Media, a leading provider of advertising representation, services, and technology to independent Web publishers, today announced the launch of the Daily Jolt College Network, a premier online advertising network for advertisers looking to reach college students. The Network is comprised of a select group of college focused web sites: and is anchored by The Daily Jolt – a national network of campus specific web sites run by a team of students on each campus.
“Our partnership with Burst Media provides a unique opportunity that benefits advertisers, publishers, and consumers,” said Mark Miller, Managing Director of The Daily Jolt. “By partnering to create a college focused vertical advertising network, Burst Media provides an experienced national sales team that leverages the Daily Jolt’s brand equity and position in the college marketplace. This will allow publishers and advertisers to reach a broad audience and to provide targeted offers to the right people.”
In a recent Burst Media research study, college students were found to be the only demographic that spends more time online than with any other media type. The Daily Jolt College Network gives brand advertisers an easy solution for reaching these valuable college students and alumni in a single online media buy that provides comprehensive campaign management and consolidated reporting. The partnership will further cement The Daily Jolt’s position as a premier provider of content to college students, and bring the Daily Jolt brand in front of more advertisers looking to reach students across campuses nationwide.
“Working with The Daily Jolt as a partner presents a great opportunity for Burst Media and its clients,” declares Jarvis Coffin, CEO and co-founder of Burst Media. “The audience this network delivers has disposable income, an incredible influence on what’s in and what’s out, and is still developing brand loyalties. The beauty of the Daily Jolt College Network is that it brings this audience together – and will make it easy for advertisers to reach a highly valued target connected to truly great content, all in a single media buy.”
Burst’s Daily Jolt College Network is the third publisher-sponsored ad network to be launched by Burst Network in 2008, following the debut of the RealGM Sports Network and CDKitchen Cooking Network. Access to the Daily Jolt College Network is available only through Burst Network, Burst Media’s brand advertising division. This exclusive offering provides publishers in the network an expert sales team with deep advertiser relationships. Burst Media’s other branded vertical network offerings include the Burst Green Network, Burst Family Travelers Network, Burst Life Stages Network, Burst Early Adopters Network, and Burst Moms Network.
