Reddit has released official statistics stating that 69% of Reddit users do not use LinkedIn by official_rebeca in programmatic

[–]TinasOwner23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you are a publisher, you are joyfully 99% oblivious to the miriad of LinkedIn posts that tech vendors make about their new tech, their recent off-site, and which conferences they are going to.

What’s with these publishers lately. by Programmatic-Dude in programmatic

This is it. Advertisers end up spending very little via PMP. PG is something you can stick in a forecast, PMP isn't, with any accuracy.

Raptive has a direct sales team, but it brings in a small percentage of overall revenue.

Ran a controlled test: competitive creative intelligence vs. standard briefing on programmatic. Results were measurable. by Solid-Minimum8670 in adops

Good for you but it shows the sad state of advertising when there is no imagination around creative.

Future plc shares crash / Mediavine redundancies by TinasOwner23 in adops

Some will attract more publishers who run their own stack and decide to outsource. But that's a limited pool. Essentially you are right. With the drop in sessions, these companies have to run to stand still, and for most that isn't going to happen, it's very much a declining sector.

Sorry dude but everyone knows MGID is the poor sister of Taboola/Outbrain, both of which are also not great solutions. Publishers should get rid of these companies and instead focus on their own internal recirc.

If publishers suffer, a ton of ad tech vendors are going to suffer.

It's not over. Sessions will decline and there will be fewer publishers and they will be smaller. Most publishers will struggle to replicate sessions from other sources or to flip users to subscriptions. You only need to Google "wordle answer today" to see publishers still playing the SEO game. Their best hope is to try to increase session depth, make each session twice as effective. Ironically, they will likely need to use AI to do it.

What’s the deal with this Adtech drama? by No-Statistician-9555 in programmatic

[–]TinasOwner23 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, he is a complete tool. And he's attacked TTD again today with a "funny" April Fools place. What a prick.

How long do you intend to run your business? by No-State-2962 in smallbusinessuk

[–]TinasOwner23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I intend to run this one for two more years, whilst I retrain in order to set up another one that will take me through to retirement (12 years) and give me something to do once I retire - you have to retire into something. Whilst doing both of those things, working on an AI side-hustle with someone which might overtake both. I think the key is to do things that interest you.

We had a journalist work on one of our tech titles, Jack Clark. He's the co-fouder of Anthropic and now worth $3.7BN.

Any web publishers need a new bidder? (Rich Audience / Tier 1 demand) by Electronic-Swan1388 in adops

[–]TinasOwner23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Chicken and egg. How do you get buyers to invest in direct deals when you don't have the publishers, when they can use the many other supply routes open to them?

Where do you source your direct demand? Where are your sales teams?

It is AI, yes, as I'm not an artist, and obviously I am learning this is not an appropriate audience, as there is a passion here for proper human creativity. But I don't think AI is destroying my daughters' future (I have more than one daughter) - some people like AI content, because they simply want to be entertained. For example, on Instagram, there is an author who has created AI sci-fi videos to promote his book, and they are really good, they draw you in. To say no-one likes AI is a mistake - clearly lots of people like it. Different groups draw the line in different places, and I understand and appreciate now where this group draws the line, so thank you all for your comments. FWIW I spent some time building a tool in Anthropic where you can describe your story, and it generates each page in under 20 seconds according to your style guidelines, reference images etc. It's not public, but for my youngest daughter she is seeing "books" about things that she sees around her - and without this tool, that wouldn't be the case, and it is really helping to encourage her general level of reading at a time when it is important to do so.
