AMA Phoenix - Tech SIG: Building a Vertical Ad Network: An Insider’s View

Featuring: Jerry L. Smith, President of Morefocus® Media

Despite flat or eroding promotional budgets, investment in on-line advertising continues to grow at an astonishing pace. In 2007, on-line ad spending reached $21.2B and is forecast to exceed $33.5B by 2010. Advertising networks placed an impressive 30% of on-line advertising in 2007, which is up from 5% in 2006. Also, an estimated $2B was spent on M&A’s related to ad networks in 2007 alone, which excludes earlier acquisitions such as WPP’s $649M purchase of 24/7 and the $3.1B purchase of DoubleClick. Similarly, venture capital investment directed at ad networks was estimated at $300M in ’07.

For those interested in taking advantage of the tremendous growth in online ad spending and specifically advertising networks, there exists significant opportunity. In fact, in some verticals there is an 18 month wait to advertise on select sites. However, significant investment is required and each decision along the way will impact market perception and your ability to compete effectively.

Marketing Professionals Will Learn

  1. The trends in on-line advertising from the perspective of product owners, agencies, media buyers and consumers
  2. The pros and cons of a traditional broad based ad network versus vertical ad network
    a. Advertiser view
    b. Publisher view
  3. Buy versus build perspectives related to content, technology, traffic, and analytics
  4. Visitor engagement options i.e., foreshadow windows versus false redirects, widgets versus “doorways”
  5. The value of premium content in delivering organic traffic, leads, transactions, revenue and EBITDA
