PicText™ Ads Run of Network pricing changes
It’s been awhile since we reviewed our Run of Network pricing. We plan on doing this for all of the available ad formats however we started with the PicText™ Ads since they are brand new and in need of pricing changes.
Results from the questionnaire we currently have running has hi-lighted some areas we could improve, one being the pricing of our Run of Network ads and in particular the targeting options. So, part of the reason for this pricing change was to review our RON targeting option prices - of which you will notice they have come down in price considerably.
To help us determine our new prices we used feedback from customers and competitor prices to ensure we have a fair yet competitive pricing strategy. You will find the pricing is really focused on targeting in a way that makes targeting a lot cheaper when compared to a non-targeted campaign. This has been done on purpose to ensure our advertisers are getting the best quality and most targeted traffic available.
We encourage you to have a look at the new pricing for the PicText™ Ads and e-mail us to let us know what you think.

AdToll release Chinese default ads
As our network grows so to does our range of international sites, particularly Chinese sites. Our default ads have always been in English which is pretty useless on sites in Chinese, as their users generally don’t speak the language.
To solve this problem we just released our new Chinese default ads which will be displayed and used on Publisher sites that are in Chinese.
This gives users of these sites the ability to read and more importantly understand what the banner is saying and trying to get across, which is basically “advertise here” .

We are of course providing the Chinese default ads in all the banner sizes, some of which are below:
