</div><p><a href="http://retargeter.com/strategy-2/programmatic-buying-intro">Programmatic buying</a> is the not-so-new, technology-based form of ad buying that&#8217;s changing the game for online advertising.</p>
<p>Advertisers have adopted programmatic buying in droves (in the form of RTB or otherwise), because it&#8217;s faster, easier, and more efficient.</p>
<p><span id="more-25310"></span></p>
<p>Publishers, however, have largely been hesitant to get on board with programmatic buying &#8212; some for better reasons than others. Here&#8217;s a look at how programmatic is changing the landscape, and why advertisers and publishers aren&#8217;t always aligned when it comes to programmatic:</p>
<p><b>Why Programmatic Is Changing Everything</b></p>
<p><a href="http://www.emarketer.com/Article/Despite-Reservations-Programmatic-Buying-Gains-Steam/1009833">Seventy percent</a> of advertisers are currently using programmatic buying as part of their media-buying plan, and three-quarters of those currently using it plan to increase the percentage of their spend dedicated to programmatic over the next year. This shift is happening for a reason: programmatic buying makes media planning easier and more efficient.</p>
<p>As the programmatic ecosystem expands and matures, the benefits for advertisers continue to expand. Programmatic advertising has removed the lengthy, cumbersome process that&#8217;s required to complete a direct ad sale online.</p><div class="wpInsert wpInsertInPostAd wpInsertMiddle" style="margin: 5px; padding: 0px;"><div style="float:left;margin: 5px 10px 5px 0px;"> 
<!-- AdOpsOnline-MPU_articles -->
<div id='div-gpt-ad-1365180846045-3' style='width:300px; height:250px;'>
<script type='text/javascript'>
googletag.cmd.push(function() { googletag.display('div-gpt-ad-1365180846045-3'); });
</script>
</div>
</div></div>
<p>Not only is programmatic efficient, it&#8217;s opened the doors for robust audience-targeting data that can allow advertisers to truly hone in on the precise audience that&#8217;s most valuable to them. Each impression can be layered with valuable data that lets the advertiser make the most of every impression.</p>
<p>Through both efficiency gains and the layering of valuable audience data, programmatic lets advertisers get more from less.</p>
<p><b>The Publisher&#8217;s Dilemma</b></p>
<p>The benefit to advertisers are obvious, but what about publishers? For some publishers, real-time bidding is a great way to monetize a chunk of their inventory, or in some cases, all of their inventory. (To be clear, real-time bidding or RTB is a form of programmatic buying, but not all programmatic buying is RTB).</p>
<p>RTB lets publishers automatically sell inventory without sales resources, RFPS, or IOs. Everything is automatic, so the overhead for the publisher is minimal. For some publishers, this is the most efficient way to monetize all their inventory. For many large publishers with expansive inventory, this is the best way to monetize a subset of inventory that isn&#8217;t sold directly. Inventory that may previously have gone unsold can be added to networks or exchanges and can earn incremental revenue for the publisher where previously they may not have earned anything.</p>
<p>On the other hand, RTB can have a downside for the supply side. RTB impressions tend to be relatively low priced, so even without the overhead the publisher can sometimes end up earning less money from RTB than from direct sales. Because RTB is often associated with remnant inventory, publishers with strong name recognition who rely on direct sales are sometimes hesitant to use RTB to sell any of their inventory for fear that it could harm their brand value.</p>
<p>In some cases, there is a fundamental misalignment between what advertisers want and what publishers need to sustain their business. Programmatic buying has changed media-buying forever, and there&#8217;s certainly no turning back now. The increased efficiency brought to the ecosystem can benefit publishers as well as advertisers, as long as the needs of both groups are met.</p>

</div><p><strong>Otilia Otlacan</strong>: Bizo has recently announced the <a href="http://www.adoperationsonline.com/2013/04/23/bizo-data-solutions-fuels-performance-of-b2b-marketing-technology-stack/" target="_blank">launch of Bizo Data Solutions</a>, enabling B2B companies to efficiently engage their target audiences across an entire marketing funnel. Can you tell us more about the type of company benefiting most from Bizo Data Solutions?</p>
<p><span id="more-25285"></span></p>
<p><strong>Chris Mann</strong>: Bizo Data Solutions is designed to benefit brands and enterprise companies that have heavily invested in building out their existing &#8220;marketing technology stack,” including CRM, marketing automation, web analytics, content management, data management platforms, and media channels.</p>
<p><strong>Otilia Otlacan</strong>: Social platforms are notoriously difficult to integrate with. How does Bizo Data Solutions work with social media campaigns, what have you found to be the most challenging?</p>
<p><strong>Chris Mann</strong>: Social media continues to hold a lot of promise for today’s marketers as companies are discovering that their prospects and customers are increasingly on social channels not only at home, but also during the workday. The way marketers use Bizo Data Solutions in conjunction with social media channels will vary across companies depending on their specific business needs. We currently have one client who is exploring how to add Bizo data to its social link shortener in an effort to determine the business demographics of its social audience. Outside of Bizo Data Solutions, we have multiple customers who are using our social advertising capabilities to reach their target audiences on LinkedIn and Facebook. I think the main challenge with social media, and any other marketing channel for that matter, will be for marketers to determine how each channel fits within the larger attribution picture when it comes to determining the ROI driven by specific tactics and strategies.</p>
<p><strong>Otilia Otlacan</strong>: What types of metrics and dashboards are available through Bizo Data Solutions? Could we see a screenshot of the reporting interface?</p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><strong>Chris Mann</strong>: Bizo Data Solutions integrates with marketing technologies including Adobe® AudienceManager, Salesforce, Eloqua, BlueKai, [x+1], Google Analytics, and more by powering them with our demographic data on more than 120 business professionals. As such, our customers will see the value in the analytics and dashboards that reside within these systems. However, when marketers combine Bizo Data Solutions with Bizo Advertising Solutions, which provides powerful, targeted display advertising, marketers can truly begin to reach their prospects anywhere on the Web. Through Bizo Advertising Solutions, marketers can use audience analytics to determine if they’re driving their target audiences to their websites, and trend display ad campaign performance over time. Below is a screenshot from Bizo’s own audience analytics dashboard demonstrating how we’ve been increasing traffic from our own target audience (marketers) to the Bizo website since the beginning of the year—a trend that validates that our programs are indeed reaching the right audience!</p><div class="wpInsert wpInsertInPostAd wpInsertMiddle" style="margin: 5px; padding: 0px;"><div style="float:left;margin: 5px 10px 5px 0px;">

<p><strong>Otilia Otlacan</strong>: Bizo is currently focused on the much sought-after U.S. business audiences. Is there any plan to extend the reach outside the U.S.?</p>
<p><strong>Chris Mann</strong>: In addition to the U.S., we have a strong presence in both Canada and the United Kingdom. Since many of the 600+ brands we support are leading, global brands, we’ll continue to keep a close watch on the needs of our clients to help prioritize as we expand internationally in the future.</p>
<p><strong>Otilia Otlacan</strong>: What&#8217;s next for Bizo?</p>
<p><strong>Chris Mann</strong>: Bizo will continue to strive to be the ultimate choice for B2B marketers when it comes to reaching their target audiences anywhere online and at every stage of the marketing funnel. Our focus has always been on providing unparalleled precision when it comes to B2B targeting, and in just the last twelve months, we’ve expanded our capabilities to support this effort with social ad targeting, CRM retargeting, company targeting, and more. As for Bizo Data Solutions, we will continue to focus our product development on Bizo’s role “behind the firewall,” partnering with other marketing technology providers who will join our mission to break down information siloes and empower marketers to use their data more effectively.</p>

<p><i><b>Company Gains Momentum, Plus Hundreds of New Customers Around the World, Thanks to Advanced Engineering That Brings Buyers and Sellers Close Together</b></i></p>
</div>
<div itemprop="articleBody">
<p>LOS ANGELES - Rubicon Project (<a href="http://www.rubiconproject.com" target="_blank">http://www.rubiconproject.com</a>), which operates REVV, the advertising industry’s largest, fastest and easiest-to-use real-time trading platform for buying and selling digital ads, announces significant results and accomplishments that clearly demonstrate the company’s momentum as it powers the automated advertising revolution to the next level globally.</p>
<p><span id="more-25250"></span></p>
<blockquote><p>“Our momentum stems from the fact that Rubicon Project is solving the biggest problem in digital advertising today – making it easier for advertisers and publishers around the globe to buy and sell digital advertising.”</p></blockquote>
<p>Founded in 2007, Rubicon Project has led the digital advertising industry into a new age of increased automation. Until recently, purchasing advertising had been a very complicated manual process. The company’s advanced engineering platform, REVV 4.0, now provides buyers and sellers of digital advertising with the tools to transact with one another efficiently and effectively.</p>
<p>In terms of metrics, Rubicon Project’s REVV Platform is used by more than 500 of the world’s premium publishers, including 40 percent of comScore’s top 500, to transact with more than 140,000 advertisers across a massive, immensely scalable marketplace.</p>
<p>Rubicon Project’s customers include: eBay UK, Time, ABC News, the Wall Street Journal, Tribune Company, Virgin Media, People, Universal and legions of other Fortune 500 companies.</p>
<p>Processing more than 6X the volume of stock trades on NASDAQ (which translates into over 2,000,000 transactions per second), Rubicon Project’s REVV Platform powers 6 billion ad trades a day, nearly 180 billion ad trades per month, and three trillion bid requests per month.</p>
<p>According to comScore’s recent results, Rubicon Project has been ranked #1 in terms of U.S. Internet reach for the past 10 months, and its reach continues to grow faster than its competitors’. More than 97 percent of U.S. Internet users, as well as 650 million global users, interact with Rubicon Project’s REVV Platform every month. In effect, no other company in the world reaches more Internet users.</p>
<p><b>One of the Fastest Growing Ad Technology Companies in History</b></p>
<p>“During the past six years, we’ve invested a tremendous amount of time and money into technology research and development, and we’re now one of the fastest growing advertising technology companies in history,” explains Frank Addante, Rubicon Project’s CEO and Founder. “Our momentum stems from the fact that Rubicon Project is solving the biggest problem in digital advertising today – making it easier for advertisers and publishers around the globe to buy and sell digital advertising.”</p>
<p>Adds Greg Raifman, Rubicon Project’s recently appointed President: “Our customer base continues to expand rapidly, and our leadership position within the digital advertising industry is deepening, because buyers and sellers recognize that our technology innovation and products are boosting their revenues and profits. We continue to distance ourselves from the competition on many fronts.”</p>
<p><b>Increasing Customer Acquisition – and Satisfaction</b></p><div class="wpInsert wpInsertInPostAd wpInsertMiddle" style="margin: 5px; padding: 0px;"><div style="float:left;margin: 5px 10px 5px 0px;">

<script type='text/javascript'>
googletag.cmd.push(function() { googletag.display('div-gpt-ad-1365180846045-3'); });
</script>
</div>
</div></div>
<p>The numbers bear this out.</p>
<p>For the six months ending March 31, 2013, Rubicon Project gained more than 200 new publishers and 100 new buyer channels that use the REVV Platform for display and mobile advertising.</p>
<p>&#8220;Bringing our business to Rubicon Project has been an excellent decision for Star Tribune,” says Ray Faust, the publisher’s Vice President for National &amp; Emerging Media Sales. “Rubicon’s active approach to customer service has been almost as big a win as our expansion into active programmatic selling. They pay attention and their REVV platform functions very well for us.”</p>
<p>Lauren Glass of The Blaze, a division of Mercury Radio Arts, echoes this. &#8220;Rubicon Project provides an incredibly high yield for every opportunity we present to them,” she says. “They do this by combining their unparalleled transparency, insights, and controls with a level of service that exceeds our expectations. They are, in a word, our ‘partner.’ “</p>
<p>Currently operating in six countries, Rubicon Project is adding customers and growing rapidly around the world. Outside of North America, the company now has more than 300 publisher customers using its REVV Platform. And its international revenue continues to grow at a tremendous rate year over year.</p>
<p>Mobile customer wins have been just as powerful for Rubicon Project. In less than two quarters, the company has added 80 publisher customers in this fast-growing segment; and these new customers represent more than 15 percent of Rubicon Project’s target market of top 500 publishers.</p>
<p><b>A Cutting-Edge Technology Platform Rooted in Engineering Excellence</b></p>
<p>Rubicon Project’s most recent product offering, Connect, has also delivered significant results in the marketplace. In fact, sales of Connect, an integral feature of Rubicon’s REVV 4.0 platform, are running ahead of the company’s planned goals.</p>
<p>A unique innovation and industry breakthrough, Connect automates higher-priced direct orders between premium publishers and large agencies, rather than focusing on auctions of unsold lower-priced inventory.</p>
<p>More than 50 publishers have installed Connect so far, including the Wall Street Journal, eBay UK and Hearst. And virtually every major agency trading desk has access to browse and purchase inventory and audience packages offered by premium publishers via Connect, as well. In addition, the resulting deals transacted are beyond $20 CPM, in some cases, versus CPMs as low as $0.10 for certain auctioned inventory.</p>
<p><b>Continuing on a Strong Growth Trajectory</b></p>
<p>Concludes Todd Tappin, Rubicon Project’s recently appointed Chief Financial Officer and Chief Operating Officer: “The company continues on a strong growth trajectory with particular momentum in real-time bidding (RTB). The shifting of audience attention from off-line to on-line, expansion of platforms like mobile, and migration toward automation are all market factors helping to propel Rubicon. Just as importantly, Rubicon continues to gain market share because of superior engineering of software and feature-sets, an increasing roster of premium publishers and buyers fueling network effects, a unique data position and proprietary real-time cloud computing technology that decreases response time and increases revenue.”</p>

<p><i>FreeWheel launches FourFronts to connect the $70 billion TV advertising business with the explosive growth of IP video consumption</i></p>
</div>
<div itemprop="articleBody">
<p>SAN MATEO, Calif. - AOL, FreeWheel, and Mediaocean announced a partnership which, upon implementation, will allow AOL to enable marketers to extend their existing television buying workflow and systems to reach target audiences at scale across premium digital video inventory. The announcement was made on stage by AOL, FreeWheel and Mediaocean at AOL’s Digital Content NewFront in New York City.</p>
<p><span id="more-25244"></span></p>
<blockquote><p>“Large, cross-screen buying has been largely held back by the cumbersome process in which TV advertisers have had to find their audiences in a world of fragmented screens”</p></blockquote>
<p>This is made possible by the launch of FourFronts, a solution powered by FreeWheel and Mediaocean that enables publishers to sell to TV media buying agencies through existing workflow and systems. FourFronts also provides extended audience scale and reach by aggregating MRC accredited, TV quality digital video inventory from suppliers that have signed on to participate in the initiative.</p>
<p>As the #1 premium curated video network on the web, AOL is committed to bridging the gap between premium digital video and TV. Partnering with FreeWheel and Mediaocean on this upcoming launch will make AOL’s on-demand video content offerings available to TV buyers looking to follow audiences that have extended their TV viewing to smartphones, tablets, video game consoles, and other over-the-top devices.</p>
<p>Through its original production, curated programming, and video distribution across partners and screens, AOL is creating a seamless, high-end video experience for advertisers and consumers. AOL is reinforcing this commitment by revealing its slate of powerhouse original series and industry-leading multi-screen syndication capabilities today.</p>
<p>Marketers will be able to see this inventory in their existing TV planning and buying interface, powered by Mediaocean, giving them the ability to buy their intended audience on premium video inventory across TV, tablets, and all connected screens.</p>
<p>“The device on which consumers view video no longer defines the type of content they’re watching; it’s purely a screen,” said Tim Armstrong, Chairman and CEO, AOL. “But until now, buyers have not had an apples-to-apples comparison when it comes to buying video on the Web and TV. The industry needs to adopt standards between traditional broadcasting and video streams on the Web to create more opportunities in the buying market. FourFronts addresses a pressing need in our industry and will place AOL at the forefront of this shifting tide, getting us one step closer to bridging the gap between premium digital video and TV.”</p>
<p>AOL will also be the first digital video publisher to directly manage relationships with TV buyers and execute transactions through FourFronts, such as TV upfront and scatter market buying, audience guarantees, gross and target audience buying, and TV invoicing against digital inventory.</p>
<p>“Whether you watch your favorite programming on a television or a tablet, it is still all just TV,” said Jon Heller, co-CEO of FreeWheel, the video advertising technology company serving enterprise-class entertainment companies. “FourFronts enables TV buyers and the advertisers they represent to more easily reach their intended audiences, at scale, wherever that audience is watching but in a single holistic plan and process. We’re excited to collaborate with Mediaocean and couldn’t be happier to have AOL onboard as our initial partner to help drive this initiative.”</p><div class="wpInsert wpInsertInPostAd wpInsertMiddle" style="margin: 5px; padding: 0px;"><div style="float:left;margin: 5px 10px 5px 0px;">

<p>“Large, cross-screen buying has been largely held back by the cumbersome process in which TV advertisers have had to find their audiences in a world of fragmented screens,” said John Bauschard, President of Mediaocean. “FourFronts, with its integration into Mediaocean systems, will allow advertisers to reacquire the reach of TV and engage with their audiences without having to reinvent the media planning and buying wheel every time a new device or platform is introduced into the market.”</p>
<p>FreeWheel’s FourFronts utilizes existing, well-established infrastructure from the company’s <a href="http://cts.businesswire.com/ct/CT?id=smartlink&amp;url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.freewheel.tv%2Ftechnology%2Fmrm%2F&amp;esheet=50621522&amp;lan=en-US&amp;anchor=Monetization+Rights+Management&amp;index=1&amp;md5=e76f60d7daff819e61c07db091f980ca" target="_blank">Monetization Rights Management</a>® and <a href="http://cts.businesswire.com/ct/CT?id=smartlink&amp;url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.freewheel.tv%2Ftechnology%2Frpm%2F&amp;esheet=50621522&amp;lan=en-US&amp;anchor=Revenue+and+Payments+Management&amp;index=2&amp;md5=f0dd173f108e589926d1790a53286942" target="_blank">Revenue and Payments Management</a> technologies that integrates tightly into Mediaocean’s PRISMA and SPECTRA systems.</p>
<p>The FreeWheel-Mediaocean integration brings together two companies with extensive footprints in their respective industries. FreeWheel makes revenue decisions for 15 of the top 20 top-rated primetime broadcast and cable networks and a growing number of TV and digital video distributors. Mediaocean processes more than $130 billion in media spend every year.</p>

<p><i>Product Provides Advertisers with Unparalleled Access to Premium, Brand-Safe Inventory Across More than One Hundred of Canada’s Top Media Properties</i></p>
</div>
<div itemprop="articleBody">
<p>TORONTO - Xaxis, the world&#8217;s largest audience buying company, announced the launch of <strong>Xaxis Premium</strong> in the Canadian market. The new programmatic buying solution provides advertisers with unparalleled access to premium digital inventory across Canada’s top media properties, including preferred access to inventory addressable via the Canadian Premium Audience Exchange (CPAX). CPAX is a real-time-bidding (RTB) exchange jointly developed by Canada’s largest media owners that allows brands to programmatically buy premium digital inventory across more than one hundred of Canada’s most prestigious outlets. Participating CPAX publishers include Rogers Media, Shaw Media, CBC/Radio-Canada, Corus Entertainment, V, TeleQuebec, Astral Media and Cineplex Entertainment.</p>
<p><span id="more-25232"></span></p>
<blockquote><p>“As we approach the one year anniversary for CPAX, we can point to key partners like Xaxis as proof that we&#8217;re delivering on this commitment. Working together, we are contributing to the continued growth of premium, brand safe RTB and programmatic buying in Canada.”</p></blockquote>
<p>Xaxis Premium offers in-market advertisers several distinct advantages for running brand-safe, programmatic campaigns in Canada. First, Xaxis provides preferential access to CPAX inventory, meaning that clients can consistently and reliably buy the most valuable placements in the system, such as homepages and above-the-fold ad units. Additionally, in making campaign buys, Xaxis allows clients to easily layer both first and third-party data resources on top of available inventory to ensure they are reaching only the most relevant audiences. And crucially, Xaxis Premium enables advertisers to seamlessly integrate programmatic buying into their broader digital initiatives. This means that clients can analyze the results of their programmatic campaigns in the context of their overall media buying programs.</p>
<p>“In the year since we launched the Xaxis Canada office, we’ve experienced extremely strong growth, with our client base expanding by more than 50 percent,” said Rodney Perry, managing director, Canada at Xaxis. “With Xaxis Premium we are able to further extend our leadership position in the digital space, offering clients the most effective means of running premium programmatic campaigns across Canada’s top outlets.”</p>
<p>Sites addressable through Xaxis Premium include more than one hundred of Canada’s most highly trafficked English and French-language digital destinations including Maclean’s, ESPN, InStyle, HGTV, BBC Canada, National Geographic and CBC Radio-Canada.</p><div class="wpInsert wpInsertInPostAd wpInsertMiddle" style="margin: 5px; padding: 0px;"><div style="float:left;margin: 5px 10px 5px 0px;">

<p>&#8220;When we launched CPAX, we made a commitment to work closely with the agency community to help shape the RTB space in Canada,&#8221; said Alan Dark, general manager, CBC Revenue Group. &#8220;As we approach the one year anniversary for CPAX, we can point to key partners like Xaxis as proof that we&#8217;re delivering on this commitment. Working together, we are contributing to the continued growth of premium, brand safe RTB and programmatic buying in Canada.&#8221;</p>

</div><p>We are very excited to announce the launch of Sharethrough Mobile, a technology solution to power native advertising across the mobile web. We’ve been testing and iterating on our platform for some time, and we are confident we’ve delivered a product that will significantly impact mobile monetization while maintaining the best user experience possible. Native is the most elegant and most impactful form of advertising built for the mobile web. Web publishers continue to see explosive traffic growth and migration of users to mobile platforms and brands are eager to interact with these users with native, organic units. Today’s options for mobile advertising don’t provide a user experience that matches the quality of the devices we hold in our pockets, nor do they provide publishers with a simple way to integrate brands into their content experience. With the launch of Sharethrough Mobile, we believe that things are about to change.</p>
<p><span id="more-25212"></span></p>
<p>A number of industry leading publishers, including PEOPLE, Serious Eats and Forbes, are already using the Sharethrough Mobile platform to power native ads on their mobile websites.</p>
<p>We are also distributing mobile only campaigns for leading brands including Cruzan® Rum, Sauza® Tequila, and Pepsi.  Both Cruzan Rum and Sauza Tequila are using Sharethrough Mobile to reach engaged audiences for video campaigns, including Sauza Tequila’s “<a href="http://bit.ly/10yjZUW">Make It With a Lifeguard,”</a> video series.</p>
<p>Pepsi ®, is currently using Sharethrough Mobile to distribute the video <a href="http://youtu.be/_2smYVl0zrk">‘Pepsi Beyonce “Mirrors”,</a></p>
<p>“At Pepsi, we strongly believe in creating advertising that is genuinely entertaining and promotes our content through ways that are respectful to our audience,” said Josh Nafman, Sr. Digital Brand Manager, Pepsi ®. “Sharethrough’s mobile platform will help Pepsi reach audiences in a way that upholds our values of engagement and compelling advertising experiences. We’re excited for this new channel to connect with our fans on their mobile devices.”</p>
<p><b>So how does it work?</b></p>
<p>Sharethrough Mobile allows brands to promote all of their original content including:  videos, articles, posts, reviews and more. Sharethrough Mobile will appear as part of the stream of content within a publisher’s mobile site, labeled as sponsored content, and automatically updated to match the look-and-feel of the organic site content. This allows advertisers to promote their content in placements across the mobile web that are native and assume the look and feel of each site the ads appear on.</p><div class="wpInsert wpInsertInPostAd wpInsertMiddle" style="margin: 5px; padding: 0px;"><div style="float:left;margin: 5px 10px 5px 0px;">

<div id='div-gpt-ad-1365180846045-3' style='width:300px; height:250px;'>
<script type='text/javascript'>
googletag.cmd.push(function() { googletag.display('div-gpt-ad-1365180846045-3'); });
</script>
</div>
</div></div>
<p><b>How do you make ads look and feel native?</b></p>
<p>Real Time Templating (RTT), a technology developed by Sharethrough, allows our advertising platform to identify the style elements of any webpage (fonts, colors, lightboxes, etc.) and match each ad to those attributes, in real time. Also, our RTT technology allows us to match any future updates to the style template, so if a publisher changes their design, the ad will remain consistent with the new style elements.</p>
<p><b>Are these ads effective?</b></p>
<p>In a word, yes. The Sharethrough solution was built to work in a mobile “scroll-centric” environment. The Sharethrough Mobile native ad units do not interrupt the user experience – which not surprisingly according to<a href="http://adage.com/article/digital/mobile-ads-disruptive-television-spots/238730/"> Forrester</a> is the most frequently requested mobile ad feature. Our mobile ads are ideally suited to the smaller screen content and advertising real estate of mobile devices. Sharethrough Mobile enables brand messages to stand among site content, with up to one-third of the entire screen dedicated to brand content.</p>
<p><b>Our Vision</b></p>
<p>We are confident that our mobile distribution and advertising platform will help advance the entire mobile advertising industry. Our goal is to be the leading provider of native ad products across all platforms and to create technology that makes advertising more integrated and useful &#8211; today we feel just a little closer to that vision.

<p><i><b>Analysis Shows That Automation Can Help Drive Mobile Adoption and Growth</b></i></p>
</div>
<div itemprop="articleBody">
<p>LOS ANGELES - Rubicon Project, which operates the advertising industry’s largest, fastest and easiest-to-use independent real-time trading platform for buying and selling digital ads (<a href="http://www.rubiconproject.com" target="_blank">www.rubiconproject.com</a>), today released a Forrester Consulting Thought Leadership Paper, <i><b>“Selling Mobile: It’s About The Industry, Not Just The Inventory.”</b></i></p>
<p><span id="more-25199"></span></p>
<blockquote><p>“Selling Mobile: It’s About The Industry, Not Just The Inventory.”</p></blockquote>
<p>The report found that “although publishers and marketers are still becoming acclimated to the mobile channel today, advanced management such as that offered by an automation platform can help drive mobile advertising toward maturity.”</p>
<p>In addition, Forrester’s new study on mobile advertising yielded these key findings:</p>
<ul>
<li>Publishers are well aware of the importance of mobile to their businesses, but they’re having difficulty monetizing the channel.</li>
<li>Understanding mobile is a challenge for publishers, but many are plagued by issues that run much deeper than simply learning a new channel.</li>
<li>Lack of expertise on the sell-side and lack of established standards and performance metrics have made media buyers hesitant to put money behind this still-emerging channel.</li>
</ul>
<p><b>Three Key Insights on Monetizing Mobile</b></p>
<p>Commenting on the Forrester report, Frank Addante, the Rubicon Project’s Founder and CEO, says:</p>
<p>“Automation will help drive mobile advertising adoption and growth for years to come, but there are three key insights to keep in mind as the industry tries to figure out how to monetize mobile.</p>
<p>First, you can’t copy and paste what we’ve done in display. You have to rethink things and come up with the right model, right format, right ad pricing units, and right method of buying and selling. It’s about creating something new here.</p>
<p>Second, automation will come to mobile faster than it has in other markets. In financial services, it took 100 years for NASDAQ to emerge; in the travel industry, it took 50 years for Sabre systems to be born; in search, it took 10 years for automation to take hold; and, in display, it took five years. My best estimate is that it will now take just 2.5 years for mobile automation to become mainstream.</p>
<p>Third, mobile is alarming for publishers; their audience is rapidly embracing this platform, but they don’t have the knowledge, data and experience to move in this direction right now. Advertisers, on the other hand, have choices. They can spend money on TV and on the Internet, and mobile is just another category. So, there’s a real disconnect between publishers and advertisers in terms of mobile. We need to rethink the mobile model so it can effectively bridge this gap. And, until we do, we have to face facts – advertisers aren’t going boost their mobile spending in super-significant ways.”</p>
<p><b>The Benefits of Mobile Automation</b></p>
<p>The growing importance of mobile today is clear, and sellers and buyers of advertising recognize that as consumer time and attention shift to mobile, their ad dollars must too. And that’s why Forrester forecasts that mobile marketing spend will grow significantly over the next few years, reaching more than $8 billion by 2016.</p><div class="wpInsert wpInsertInPostAd wpInsertMiddle" style="margin: 5px; padding: 0px;"><div style="float:left;margin: 5px 10px 5px 0px;"> 
<!-- AdOpsOnline-MPU_articles -->
<div id='div-gpt-ad-1365180846045-3' style='width:300px; height:250px;'>
<script type='text/javascript'>
googletag.cmd.push(function() { googletag.display('div-gpt-ad-1365180846045-3'); });
</script>
</div>
</div></div>
<p>“Automation offers several core benefits that are helping drive mobile ad spend,” explains Josh Wexler, General Manager of the mobile business at Rubicon Project. “It incorporates third-party data, which enhances customer targeting. It increases transparency and helps establish pricing standards. It offers publishers the opportunity to manage buys across channels more effectively and efficiently. And it reduces manual labor, allowing salespeople to spend more time on the high-touch, high-value relationship-building that generates most revenue.”</p>
<p><b>The Rubicon Project’s Success With Mobile Automation</b></p>
<p>Last July, Rubicon Project launched the Mobile Project, which is the best practices solution using the REVV platform to enable publishers to sell mobile ad inventory through both direct and indirect sales channels.</p>
<p>The Mobile Project builds on REVV, Rubicon’s real-time trading platform, so now there’s a single platform and marketplace for the buying and selling of both display and mobile ad inventory.</p>
<p>One of the reasons that the Mobile Project has been so successful – in the last two quarters alone, it’s gained 65 new customers – is the fact that it takes the complexity out of buying and selling mobile advertising.</p>
<p>The Mobile Project, for example, includes the integration of Rubicon’s proprietary mobile ad-server, which automatically delivers impressions across iOS, Android, Blackberry and Windows devices.</p>
<p>“This is how we solve the device-diversity problem, which causes audience fragmentation,” says Rubicon Project’s Wexler. “We also deal with the proliferation of un-cookied iOS devices, which make it harder to capture value from advertising. In addition, we address the management of multiple SDKs, which create unwieldy operational overhead. And we compensate for inconsistent rich media formats, which impede scale and complicate implementation. In the end, customers understand that we’re attacking all the tough issues with our mobile platform.”</p>
<p><b>About Rubicon Project</b></p>
<p>Purchasing advertising has been a very complicated manual process for more than 100 years. But now Rubicon Project is automating advertising like NASDAQ did for stock trading, Sabre systems did for travel, and Amazon is doing for retail.</p>
<p>Rubicon Project’s automated advertising platform is used by more than 500 of the world’s premium publishers, including 40 percent of the top 500, to transact with more than 100,000 advertisers across a massive marketplace.</p>
<p>Rubicon Project’s customers include: eBay, Time, ABC News, the Wall Street Journal, Tribune Company, Virgin Media, People, Universal and legions of other Fortune 500 companies.</p>
<p>In terms of metrics, Rubicon Project powers over 180 billion ad trades per month; and more than 97 percent of U.S. Internet users, as well as 650 million global users, interact with the company’s system every month. According to comScore, Rubicon Project is ranked #1, meaning no other company in the world reaches more users.</p>

<p><i>Marks Major Shift in Media Buying Strategy and Publisher Evaluation</i></p>
</div>
<div itemprop="articleBody">
<p>PALO ALTO, Calif. &amp; CHICAGO - Starcom MediaVest Group (SMG) and ShareThis announced the integration of ShareThis’ Social Quality Index (SQI) into SMG’s comScore Media Metrix® interface for media planning purposes. SQI is a universal measure of social activity on the web. The integration marks the evolution of social from a networking tool to an industry planning resource. For the first time, media planners will be incorporating SQI scores into their evaluations of publishers to determine media allocations.</p>
<p><span id="more-25197"></span></p>
<blockquote><p>“Two years ago, we teamed up with ShareThis to leverage SQI in our media buying approach, and it has been an invaluable media planning and buying metric across multiple verticals and client KPIs. We’ve seen significant increases in campaign results across the board”</p></blockquote>
<p>SQI provides scoring insights spanning 27 key content categories based on ShareThis’ vast reach across more than two million publisher sites. SQI scores are calculated using a patent-pending algorithm that measures how social a site’s content is, relative to other sites with the same type of content. These indexed scores help advertisers identify the most shared and valuable content and engaged audiences across the web.</p>
<p><b>Media Planning Insight that Improves Ad Campaign Performance</b></p>
<p>One of the most basic human behaviors, sharing is affecting and redefining every element of communications in ways that are rapidly altering the advertising and publishing industries. By optimizing toward high SQI-rated sites, campaigns will reach the most social audiences and generate higher user engagement. SMG clients have seen impressive results from integrating sharing insights into their campaigns such as ad interaction increased by 66 percent, newsletter sign-ups by 234 percent, and store look-ups by 236 percent. Brand preference lift was 18 percent while purchase intent rose 26 percent.</p>
<p>“Two years ago, we teamed up with ShareThis to leverage SQI in our media buying approach, and it has been an invaluable media planning and buying metric across multiple verticals and client KPIs. We’ve seen significant increases in campaign results across the board,” said Lisa Weinstein, President, Global Digital and Data &amp; Analytics, Starcom MediaVest Group. “Integrating ShareThis’ social metric into our comScore interface gives us the intelligence we need all in one place and makes our media planning more efficient. We encourage our publisher partners to adopt SQI given its proven merit measuring marketing effectiveness.”</p>
<p>“The integration of SQI with comScore’s audience data is a first-of-its-kind effort to incorporate the value of social-sharing into the digital media planning workflow,” said Andrew Lipsman, vice president of Industry Analysis, comScore. “By collaborating with our clients in this manner to deliver innovative solutions, we help power improved campaign performance.”</p>
<p><b>Changing the Way Content and Inventory is Valued</b></p><div class="wpInsert wpInsertInPostAd wpInsertMiddle" style="margin: 5px; padding: 0px;"><div style="float:left;margin: 5px 10px 5px 0px;">

</script>
</div>
</div></div>
<p>This is the beginning of new value of content in an increasing social and cross platform environment. In a world where content selection in media plans is increasingly reliant on machine bidding, SQI gives the industry a measure of what content real people like the most. With this standard social quality measure, sellers can set price floors and buyers can make bids on domain names.</p>
<p>“As the first provider of third party social insights integrated into Media Metrix, we’re enjoying a significant increase in visibility for SQI and continue to push forward with our partners to make it an industry standard,” said Kurt Abrahamson, CEO of ShareThis. “SQI is a tool for publishers to distinguish themselves as leaders in engaging, shareable content and attractors of high referral traffic. Social acts, page views and incremental traffic have become the new monetizable value of an online publication or website.”</p>
