Report: Platform-A #1 Ad Network
ADOTAS — AOL’s Platform-A is the top interactive advertising network, reaching 91% of American Internet users, according to data released by comScore. Yahoo and Google came in second and third, respectively. The report analyzed March 2008 data on online ad networks and highlighted the breadth of ad networks’ reach.
“Ad networks have become integral components to the online advertising industry over the past several years by helping aggregate audiences for the purposes of delivering impressions to a broad array of Internet users,” said Jeff Hackett, comScore’s vice president, in a statement. “The increasing ability of many ad networks to target and deliver ads either behaviorally or demographically is enabling a more efficient expression of ad dollars and an improved return on advertisers’ online marketing investment.”
Each of the top 15 networks delivered ads to about 50% of the total U.S. online audience last month. Platform-A served ads to 170 million consumers.
