Modern Online Ads Can Lead to ‘Black Swans’ for Brands
DIGITAL DUE DILIGENCE – If there’s one way to sum up the resurgence of display advertising compared to search advertising in the last few years, it would be this: Display is finally a market. Like a financial security that can be split, swapped, sliced, diced, packaged, unpackaged, and hedged, ad [...] more...
One Year Later, How Are DSPs Adapting?
ADOTAS – Many moons ago, when the demand-side platform (DSP) was new and Invite Media was independent, I made some public predictions about display advertising.

AdSpam Algo Kicks Long-Tail Spam Off Blekko
ADOTAS – I’m doubtful that an algorithm can judge something as subjective as quality content, but an algorithm can certainly be used to scrape off the obvious crap (perhaps the “low-clinging crap”?).

Overall, 1.3 million websites host malware, and third-party advertising is one of [...] more...
Mpire Survey Finds Ad Verification Good for Industry
ADOTAS – When ZEDO integrated Mpire’s AdXpose into its ad network, I asked Ryan Polley, AdXpose senior vice president of strategic development, how he felt about ad networks always talkin’ smack about ad verifiers, and he surprised me by answering, “Can you blame them?” “Agencies and networks and publishers are [...] more...
TechCrunch’s Baseless Accusations About Google & DSPs
ADOTAS – Hey everybody — TechCrunch’s Erick Schonfeld just discovered these nefarious things called DSPs! Apparently the rapscallions are giving independent ad networks trouble.
