We have developed a brand new and so far unique process of ad delivery in our mobile marketing portfolio! Thanks to a new process, our in-house designed ad server technology we will postpone ad delivery until the respective ad space actually appears on the user’s mobile screen. This allows mobile publishers to monetise their inventory even more effectively with additional CPM ad placements in the areas of mobile environments that are not immediately visible. It will also be possible for the first time to charge for a 100 percent valid click-through rate, even for ads appearing in the area of a mobile website or app not immediately visible.

The great advantage of measuring ad visibility: In the past, mobile publishers were faced with the problem that CPM marketing revenue, which is generally based on page impressions, could only be generated from a CPM ad space in the immediately visible area of an app or mobile web page. An ad impression in the area not immediately visible could not automatically be defined as an actual ad view. From now on ad delivery and billing will only be effected once the ad space appears in response to the user scrolling down the smartphone display.

Initial analyses conducted in the mobile environments of six regional daily newspapers showed a visibility level of over 70 percent for ads that were placed underneath articles. More Informations
