Some of you may already know that I’m CEO at Insomnia which ownes a Site Representation firm called Adphilia. I wanted to announce on Crenk that we have been making some key changes to Adphilia over the last few months that has produced some amazing results.
Adphilia is not like your normal advertising network, we dont just aim to fill as many impressions as possible with our advertisers, we aim to find the types of advertising that best fits your site and then find solutions to fill these advertising slots. Currently, we work mainly with CPM campaigns, but we also have various CPC, CPA and sponsorship opportunities, which mix to make the optimum solution for each publisher. We believe that no two publishers are the same and everyone has different goals and option with regards to their advertising solutions.
Adphilia has just launched a new website, which is a very simple corporate site that explains in better depth what we do and how we do it. At Adphilia we have recently partnered with Zedo as our ad serving solution and this has allowed us to take our firm to the next level.
In terms of stats Adphilia had an amazing December, reaching over 100 million ad impressions. Currently, our predictions for January end to be over 140 million ad impressions sold. Adphilia is currently seeing a huge growth in impressions every month, which most networks are also seeing, but the difference is that with Adphilia we have seen an increase in our eCPM rates for our publishers and this is going completely against market trends.
Adphilia is always looking for more advertisers who would be interested in advertising on our great publisher sites, and additionally publishers are always welcome to join our network if their brands meet our standards. Im intending to update everyone about Adphilia via Crenk in the future, so stay tuned for more info.
