Social, Search and Direct - Pathways to Digital News

Details
13 March 2014

How someone gets to a news organization's website says a lot about the level of engagement and loyalty he or she displays toward the site and its content, according to a new Pew Research Center analysis conducted in collaboration with the John S. and James L. Knight Foundation. In this study of U.S. internet traffic to 26 of the most popular news websites, direct visitors—those who type in the news outlet's specific address (URL) or have the address bookmarked—spend much more time on that news site, view many more pages of content and come back far more often than visitors who arrive from a search engine or a Facebook referral. The data also suggest that turning social media or search eyeballs into equally dedicated readers is no easy task.

These are among the key findings that detail how 1 million people enrolled in one of the nation's most popular commercial internet panels have been connecting through their desktop and laptop computers with the most accessed or shared news sites of our time.

Marketers Prefer Premium Content Publishers Over Facebook for their Brand Focused Campaigns

Details
08 November 2013

The Online Publishers Association (OPA) has released "Branding on Display", a study providing insight into the role branding plays in online advertising as well as agency and marketer preferences of media for achieving their branding objectives. The study found that agency and marketer decision-makers report significantly higher levels of satisfaction with Premium Content Publishers (78%) than with Facebook (51%). Premium Content Publishers outpace Facebook across key advertising priorities, including: offering brand safety (71% vs. 36%); having the best creative options for brand-focused ad campaigns (64% vs. 26%); capturing the attention of the audience (63% vs. 29%); and offering a platform where the ads are considered viewable (59% vs. 42%).

According to "Branding on Display", 47% of decision makers believe Premium Content Publishers are the best media for brand-focused advertising campaigns, compared to 16% preferring Social Media, 13% favoring Video Ad Networks and 11% preferring Portals. Premium Content Publishers are also considered superior to Social Media at delivering the most important branding objectives: increasing consideration of brand (79% vs. 55%); increasing brand preference (84% vs. 54%); improving brand favorability (81% vs. 54%); and increasing purchase intent (78% vs. 50%).

"We wanted to better understand marketers' priorities for delivering their brand objectives online. The research undoubtedly demonstrates that decision makers value Premium Content Publishers for their branding messages over all other media," said Pam Horan, President, OPA. "With 63% of marketers perceiving Premium Content Publishers as a superior channel to reach their brand goals compared to Social Media at only 27%, the message is very clear: marketers believe that their brand campaigns benefit from the environment offered by top media brands."

The Smartphone Choices for Media Companies

Details
06 November 2013

Based on 18 case studies of media companies on six continents, "The Smartphone Choices for Media Companies" synthesizes best practices in smartphone development into a storyline of choices:

  • Are smartphone products designed to build new audiences or add value for existing audiences?
  • Is the smartphone a complement to other platforms or its own unique experience?
  • Is the company objective to build audience volume or fill up a tightly defined audience niche?
  • Will the smartphone be used for the core news brand or the development of smaller passion niches?
  • Each media company's choices drive the tactical realities of today: Mobile Web or app? Smartphone or tablet emphasis?

"The Smartphone Choices for Media Companies" by INMA looks at:

  • Market opportunities for publishers.
  • Emerging strategies for publishers.
  • A profile of the smartphone audience.
  • Trends in smartphone product development.
  • Monetisation, notably advertising.
  • What publishers see next for the smartphone.

The 145-page report is presented through two lenses:

  • A narrative developed by INMA based on the case studies.
  • The raw case studies themselves.
