On to the Rankings

The Rankings are divided between Advertisers/Agencies and Publishers, with each users only able to fill in the survey as one. 476 Advertisers took the survey and 307 Publishers took the survey — which is by no means a scientific survey. The Rankings are on a scale of 1 to 10, with 10 being the best possible ranking. We’ve ranked the answers by highest ranked first, and then moved down to the lowest ranking.

What was advertising.com’s overall network quality rating? It seems to have been omitted.

It’s like the empirical aspect of Antonio Damasio’s research to be kept like the abstract version of the distant asian tao at the David R. Lachterman — Alexandre Matheron debate , sophisticated in ecology due to Alberto Giampieri’s ” analisi economica del diritto e analisi de metodo : la questione del danno contradualle ” since 1996 .

Valueclick tops the list for service? Guess if you don’t mind waiting 72 hours for a reply to a simple customer service email.

ValueClickMedia was very quick when I asked them about a small problem. They even sent me a custom made code in no time.

I would like to see Google on the list.

I have been underwhelmed with ValueClick service, so I’m shocked that they are at the top…

Where’s DoubleClick in these ranks? I spoke with a rep from that company and he just referred me to this article saying he couldn’t help me. Ohh and value click, not very impressed with them either. They had disney ads running on an auto website?!?

Gorilla Nation is not that good at many things. Therefore I’m not sure why it’s on the top of the list.

Also dicrepancy is extremely high when you’re running the “good” ads. One day on the reporting you make a certain amount and at the end of the month things don’t add up. VERY bad.

Hi, this is great info. but do you have anything current for the eCPM rates? August ’06 might be out of date now. seeing side-by-side comparisons like this is wonderful. i have been searching for days and can find next to nothing like this. thank you.

Right now, at the beginning of 2012, what are you watching the most closely for its ad and marketing opportunities?
Mobile. Smart devices have become standard, and advertising is only going to become more creative there.

Online video. It's a real competitor to TV now, and it presents really interesting ways to engage viewers.

Social media. The new Facebook timeline and the surge of Google+ have cracked the game wide open again.

Tempting as it might be, I don't want to get too involved in one aspect.

See, I think this might be a good time to see what would happen if we revisited MySpace, but made the ads slightly bigger... with more strobe effect.
