AOL’s Platform-A Launches Third-Party
Mobile Ad-Serving and Inventory Partitioning Solutions
Powerful Targeting Solution Gives Mobile Publishers Unprecedented
Control Over Their Ad Inventory
NEW YORK (Business Wire EON/PRWEB ) August 4, 2008 --
AOL today announced the launch of its mobile third-party ad-serving
solution through Third Screen Media, Platform-A’s
mobile ad-serving platform and network. Along with the ability to access
multiple networks, the solution features an innovative new method for
publishers to manage, partition and allocate their advertising inventory
across multiple networks. Platform-A, http://www.platform-a.com,
is AOL’s digital advertising business.
With its newly launched third-party ad-serving solution, Platform-A will
offer mobile publishers the opportunity to access multiple ad networks
for monetizing their advertising inventory, letting them fill more of
their available inventory and create additional revenue streams.
As a part of the offering, Platform-A is introducing a groundbreaking “inventory
partitioning” solution that lets publishers
dictate exactly how inventory is distributed across multiple networks.
While traditional third-party distribution systems use campaign-based
tools to allocate inventory, Platform-A’s
solution offers a myriad of highly targeted options for defining
inventory allocation. With inventory partitioning, mobile publishers
will access a highly intuitive user interface that allows a single-view
overview of their entire stock of inventory. Publishers can assign
specific percentages of their inventory to be allocated based on any
combination of ad network, subject area, location and more.
“Platform-A sees mobile as a key component of
the digital advertising landscape, and is aggressively focused on
building its mobile advertising business,”
said Lynda Clarizio, President of Platform-A. “Today’s
launch makes it easier than ever for publishers to monetize their ad
inventory. By implementing inventory partitioning as a part of Third
Screen Media’s third-party ad-serving
solution, we’re offering publishers a
powerful new way to manage, control and prioritize the distribution of
inventory to their advertising partners.”
This sophisticated ad-serving solution complements Third Screen Media’s
already robust set of mobile ad-serving capabilities. The
Advertising.com Third Screen Media Mobile Network is one of the largest
mobile advertising networks, with access to more than 800M impressions
per month. Also available from Third Screen Media is the Third Screen
Media Mobile AdServing Platform, which gives advertisers, publishers and
mobile phone carriers a common view of mobile ad inventory to increase
the efficiency and time-to-market for the buying and selling of mobile
advertising in WAP, video, SMS/MMS and downloadable applications.
