Platform-A, AOL's advertising organization, makes it easier than ever for marketers to harness the power of digital media to meet their marketing objectives.
Platform-A integrates AOL MediaGlow's premium content (e.g., AOL.com, AOL Music, MapQuest, Moviefone and TMZ), AOL People Networks' social media (e.g., AIM, Bebo and ICQ), Advertising.com's massive third-party ad networks and the industry's most powerful ad technologies into a unified solution for advertisers.
Now that fragmentation has sent audiences scattering across the Web, it's harder than ever for marketers to break through. Platform-A simplifies the process by allowing marketers to target audiences at scale across multiple digital channels—affiliate marketing, display, mobile, search, sponsored listings and video—all in one place. Since Platform-A reaches nine out of 10 consumers online,*marketers can connect with large numbers of their ideal consumers.
Platform-A also gives marketers confidence that comes from working with the most trusted names in online advertising: Advertising.com, AOL, buy.at, Quigo, TACODA and Third Screen Media, among others. Simply put, quality matters—especially in today's tough economic climate where marketers need to extract every last dollar of value from their ad budgets.
No matter what their goals may be—building awareness, driving sales or any other objective—Platform-A has the tools to help marketers succeed. The Platform-A roster of solutions includes high-impact rich media, deep integration into content, a comprehensive suite of targeting tools, takeovers that allow advertisers to "own" an entire content channel or audience across the Web, custom promotions, widgets, comparison shopping engines and search engine marketing.
Platform-A partners with advertisers to develop the right solution for their brands. Furthermore, Platform-A will create a rigorous accountability model for any campaign so advertisers always know exactly how well they're meeting their objectives.
By assembling so many powerful marketing tools into a unified solution, Platform-A makes it easier to engage audiences at scale where they live online—and drive measurable results.
