Burst Media gets into behavioral targeting program for auto advertisers

March 20, 2023 By Dennis Bouchand Leave a Comment

Burst Media has launched the adConductor-powered Burst Auto Intenders Network. This network consists of an advertising program that moves beyond content to include behavioral targeting of ads to consumers who have exhibited purchase-intent behaviors such as a price search or configuration by make and model on in-market automotive sites. Ads are shown to these in-market auto shoppers when they visit any of 4,600 highly-targetable web sites in Burst Network.

The behavioral component of the Burst Auto Intenders Network allows advertisers to take advantage of the broad reach provided by Burst Network to potentially reach over 50% of all in-market auto consumers. Additionally, the Network includes auto specific content that appeals to auto buyers and enthusiasts, and can be packaged with lifestyle content to reach valuable demographic segments such as moms, men, environmentally aware consumers, and luxury seekers.

The Interactive Advertising Bureau (IAB) and PricewaterhouseCoopers (PwC) released the IAB Internet Advertising Revenue Report covering the first six months and the second quarter of 2008.

Internet advertising revenues in the US for the first six months of 2008 were $11.5 billion, setting yet another new half-year record that represents a 15.2 percent increase over the first half of 2007. The second quarter of ’08 was up 12.8% over the same period of 2007 and showed a slight decline of 0.3% from the first quarter.

Search and Display-related advertising continue to set records. Search revenues totaled almost $5.1 billion for the first six months of 2008, up 24 percent from the $4.1 billion for the same period in 2007. Display-related advertising totaled close to $3.8 billion for first six months of 2008, compared to the $3.2 billion reported for the same period in 2007, showing about a 19% increase.
