Media.net Bets Its Contextual Data Can Offset Death Of The Cookie

The amount of online media with audience data attached is shrinking, thanks to Apple, which now blocks third-party cookies in Safari, and GDPR, which requires user consent to show personalized ads. But when advertising cookies are missing, marketers have limited, costly alternatives. Some demand-side platforms (DSPs) don’t offer any contextual buying. Or buyers must pay... Continue reading »

MAUs Are Falling, And Twitter’s Going To Stop Reporting On Them

Twitter’s got a new metric for Wall Street to chew on – monetizable daily active users (MDAU) – and something to hide: the fact that monthly active user growth is on the decline.

Facebook’s ARPU Grows Like Gangbusters And Its Stock Soars Despite the Scandals

Facebook is getting beaten up by a punishing news cycle – but, for its part, it’s beating the street. The stock surged more than 17% in after-hours trading on Wednesday. Revenue for the fourth quarter clocked in at $16.91 billion, a 30.4% year-over-year (YoY) increase. Nearly all of that – $16.64 billion – was thanks... Continue reading »

Apple Device Revenue Slumps As Services Skyrocket

Apple actually mentioned the word “advertising” on its earnings call.

The Monetization Motivation Behind Facebook’s Messaging Merger

Facebook’s plan to integrate the backend infrastructure of its messaging platforms isn’t sitting well with privacy advocates, security experts, European regulators or US lawmakers. Alarm bells are ringing all over the place. The Irish Data Protection Authority says it’s going to be “very closely scrutinizing” the situation, particularly where it might involve the sharing and...
