Internet Publishing (Digital)
Agencies
There are three situations to consider here:
1 - Are you a publisher and wish to find an ad agency?
2 - Are you an advertizer looking for an agency?
3 - Are you simply doing research and want some figures?
First of all, you must have clearly in your mind that the Internet is
a fast growing mass-media. Like other media, it offers the posibility
of reaching your target market with a message. The reach can be local
or global (worldwise), and the nice thing about the Internet is that your
readership can be measured very precisely. Another advantage is the
low cost of both advertising and publishing in the Internet.
For those of you interested in numbers (size of Internet advertising), we
are going to refer you to our Online Library.
For those of you interested in adv or publishing, please read on. Below is a review of
selected Internet Advertising companies.
Let's start with Google, the first company operating in the PPC market that
understood that there should be a balanced approach to PPC, that there are always
two sides to every coin. They realized that trying to attract advertisers was all
very well, but that such advertisers needed somewhere to place their ads.
PPC advertising had first risen to popularity back in the ‘dot.com’ boom days of
the 1990’s, but the technology at that time was not sophisticated enough to prevent
rampant click fraud, so PPC was dropped by pretty much everybody as a valid
advertising business model.
The only company that was willing to continue with the concept for the long term was
one of the original PPC pioneers called GoTo.com. They later became (better) known
as Overture.com who were in turn purchased in 2003 by Yahoo.
Google first launched themselves into the PPC business with their AdWords program
in 2000 but it was only mildly successful until mid 2003, when they launched the
‘other side of the coin’ service, AdSense. With both AdWords and AdSense in place,
Google had thus become the first company to fully establish a successful, balanced
and profitable contextual advertising business model.
