Satisfying the market hunger for contextual data solutions.
Future Publishing has chosen Grapeshot to be its contextual advertising solution. Having run successful tests at the beginning of the year, Future Publishing has consolidated its position at the forefront of online advertising by deploying Grapeshot contextual technology accross more than 25 titles. Advertisers will now benefit from Future’s enhanced ability to respond contextually to their needs.
Kurt Edwards (Digital Commercial Director, Future Publishing) said: “We are delighted to be working with Grapeshot. During testing, the performance of all the campaigns improved significantly by applying Grapeshot’s contextual intelligence and targeting. I believe the market seems to have a real hunger for contextual data solutions. Consequently we have already sold campaigns using Grapeshot. Furthermore we are in discussion with Grapeshot about other projects using their technology”.
Andrew Morley (Sales Director, Grapeshot) said: “Future is a fantastic brand and a really innovative digital business so we are very excited by this important partnership. Grapeshot’s ability to understand the weighting of all the words on a page lends itself perfectly to Future’s vertically structured and rich content.
