Performics` Paid Search Platform Integrated with MSN adCenter
Performics played a pivotal role clarifying search advertiser needs throughout the development of adCenter
NEW YORK, Oct. 24 -- Performics, the performance-based marketing division of DoubleClick Digital Advertising Solutions, today announced the incorporation of MSN adCenter into its search engine marketing platform as well as the participation of more than 100 advertisers in the adCenter pilot, which began in the U.S. on Oct. 18, 2005.
"Performics has been extremely valuable throughout our development process. The company provided unique insight and perspective because of the massive scale of its search marketing programs and the high level of sophistication and functionality of its technology platform," said David Jakubowski, general manager of search strategy and GTM for MSN. "We look forward to working closely with Performics as we take search to a more sophisticated, targeted level."
With more than 420 million unique visitors per month worldwide, MSN presents an exciting opportunity for Performics` clients looking for new opportunities during the fourth quarter. Performics will leverage the adCenter API to integrate technology, access preferred service, and utilize automated advertising purchase and management processes to ensure all of its advertisers will be able to rapidly scale their programs to include adCenter.
"adCenter is an important innovation for the search marketing industry," said Stuart Larkins, vice president, search for Performics. "Being one of the first advertisers to reach the MSN user base really struck a chord with our search advertising clients. We welcome another major player that can help bolster our clients` search marketing programs through the holiday shopping season, and adCenter`s audience intelligence and targeting capabilities are very attractive for our sophisticated search advertisers."
Performics is part of an exclusive group of search engine marketing companies participating in the pilot program. As part of the alpha and beta testing, Performics provided feedback and direction on the needs of search advertisers, coupled with the requirements of third parties for more seamless technical integration. By running on adCenter, Performics` search advertisers gain flexibility and control and a better understanding of how to connect with searchers on MSN and the Internet.
