Apple iAds Launched: Engage. Captivate. Connect.

Posted on July 1st, 2010 in Mobile, Pay-Per-Click | No Comments »

The much ballyhooed launch of Apple iAds, Apple’s new advertising product has begun with the following slogan: Engage, Captivate, Connect. I couldn’t have described the purpose of brand advertising better myself. Problem is… that’s all iAds will ever be – a brand advertising platform. Why? Because Apple App users hire apps to do its app job first – not advertise to them. Apple iAds are no different than any other media trying to capture the attention of its audience. Engaging the app audience is no guarantee iAds will measurably lift its advertisers brand awareness in the consumers mind any more than any other device or media would. Engage Captivate Connect As much as I love Apple and all of their products – its the only brand of computer, phone or reader I own – their iAds product will do little to disrupt and reshape the mobile advertising marketplace beyond that which its device counterparts are already on track to do.

Introducing the Google Display Network

Posted on June 18th, 2010 in Pay-Per-Click, Product Updates | No Comments »

(cross posted from the Inside AdWords Blog ) Over the past year, we’ve been focused on investing in display advertising, and we’ve seen great momentum from the increasing number of you running display campaigns with Google. We’ve rolled out new features and targeting options and more precise measurement tools . To provide more places for you to run display ads, we’ve added more publisher sites (through Google AdSense and DoubleClick Ad Exchange) to our ad network of over one million sites. Meanwhile, many of you have continued to run ads on YouTube and our own properties . In an effort to make our display media offerings clearer to advertisers like you and agencies, we’re creating a new umbrella name for all these properties, the Google Display Network. The Google Display Network will comprise all of the sites (apart from search sites), where you can buy ads through Google, including YouTube, Google properties such as Google Finance, Gmail, Google Maps, Blogger as well as over one million Web, video, gaming, and mobile display partners (our display partners include all of our AdSense and DoubleClick Ad Exchange partner sites that allow text and/or display ads). The Google Display Network offers all ad formats - text, image, rich media, and video ads - enabling you to unleash your creativity and engage potential customers across the Web. You can run ads on the Google Display Network the same way you always have. Either place bids through AdWords or make reservations on YouTube and Google Finance with the help of a Google account team. In the upcoming weeks, you’ll see a change in the AdWords interface reflecting this new term, and you’ll see Google Display Network where you might have seen Google Content Network mentioned. We’ve also launched a new website showcasing the sites and benefits available to you on the Google Display Network. We’re working hard to offer the best display advertising solutions and we look forward to introducing new features on the Google Display Network that help you reach your advertising goals.
