comScore Puts Page-Load Time Under Microscope

Page load time, a do-or-die website-performance issue 10 years ago, is still enough of a concern today that Google is now under pressure to introduce a ranking factor into its algorithm to account for how fast a site or page loads, Search Engine Land reports. The issue particularly resonates with web publishers that hope to benchmark their site performance and measure how they stack up against their competi  [...]

Android Ads Get Boost from Admob Deal

Google's just-announced $750 million acquisition of AdMob has several important implications for mobile marketers. First, it will help consolidate the mobile ad space, which is currently fragmented and populated with smaller players. Second, it will almost certainly increase overall availability in the now-tiny mobile ad market, while at the same time giving a huge boost to inventory specifically aimed at the Android platform. While Google itself points out that mobile ads currently make u  [...]

Will Jazzed-up AdECN Feature Real-Time Bidding?

Speculation is growing that Microsoft is getting ready to relaunch AdECN, an ad exchange company it acquired two years ago that has been rarely mentioned since.

The buzz about the company's makeover was kicked off with a formal statement from AdECN that referred to a vague timeli  [...]

VW Races to iPhone with GTI Ad-App

Volkswagen is, not surprisingly, launching a marketing campaign for its upcoming 2010 Volkswagen GTI. What is surprising is that the campaign is rolling out in the form of an iPhone App – and at least for the time being - will be limited to that platform. The free app, which is called "Real Racing GTI," puts players on the fictional Mayapan Beach racetrack, and is tied to a contest in which, the New York Times   [...]

'Family Guy' Leads Windows 7 Viral Push

Microsoft has recruited the Griffin-family characters from the popular TV show "Family Guy" in an effort to shore up its marketing push for new operating system Windows 7, which is launching today. While such 'celebrity' endorsements are hardly new, this particular campaign represents a novel twist for online video campaigns. For starters it is not an ad, but a half-hour show, scheduled to run on Nov. 8 without traditional commercials. Instead, "Family Guy Presents: Seth & Alex's Almost Live   [...]

Disney Explores Cross-Platform Content Ownership

The  Walt Disney Company appears to be poised to unveil a new technology that will help it recover from slumping DVD sales - a decline fueled in part by robust Web 2.0 content available to consumers, including illegal duplicating and trading of its own copyrighted material. Code-named "Keychest," the service will give consumers lifetime rights to a piece of content - say, a movie or TV show - across multiple digital platforms such as a smartphone or on-demand cable service or computer, Media  [...]
