KANSAS CITY, MO — (Marketwired) — 09/26/13 — AdStation, Adknowledge-s email channel, is announcing a renewed strategic focus on email technology, placing a premium on traffic quality, brand safety, and publisher returns. As a result, AdStation is discontinuing distribution methodologies that don-t directly integrate with the AdStation technology platforms. This includes its affiliate network, which will be phased out on October 1, 2013.
“We listened to the market. Brand safety and user lifetime value are what matter to our advertisers,” said AdStation General Manager Matt Hoggatt. “By only working with publishers that directly integrate with us, we have full visibility and increased control over the quality of our traffic sources,” Hoggatt said. “As part of this initiative, we will unveil several new product features allowing precision targeting, brand safety controls and enhanced transparency, which all serve to provide the highest value customers to our advertisers. In short: we have eliminated the risks that come with affiliate-style marketing, while maintaining all of the benefits.”
AdStation-s flagship publisher product, AdStation Integrated, has grown so dramatically in the past year that the affiliate network has become virtually obsolete. This renewed focus on our core competencies builds on these recent successes by ensuring, with data to prove it, the safest, highest quality traffic possible. “In the future, we will leverage our targeting technology and quality controls with every ad served. To do so, we need to eliminate products that don-t use that technology,” Hoggatt said.
