Google has been turning pages in Online Adverting. But lately Google has "searched" for advertisement space on TV as well. So They materialized the Google TV Ads platform to provide the exact need. It is not the recently announced AdSense for Video, But big screen TV's that you hooked up to Cable TV services and Satellite networks.So Google announced on Thursday that it has come into an agreement with Bloomberg TV Network to provide TV Ads via their network. The TV Ads used to be mysterious medium that common folks could not really touch. But with the Google TV Ads, it has become a self service medium, that anyone with the need could reach out and advertise.
What more is the integration of viewrship data on the TV network. Google will be able to provide second-by-second data from millions of anonymized set-top-boxes, allowing advertisers to measure viewership of their ads more precisely than ever before. With this data, advertisers can better understand what consumers are responding to and make real-time adjustments to their campaigns to maximize the return on their TV ad investments. Google's digital platform also makes it easier for advertisers to find relevant programming through its keyword search functionality.
“We’re pleased to be partnering with BLOOMBERG TELEVISION to continue to make TV advertising more relevant and measurable,” said Mike Steib, director of Google TV Ads. “We will now be able to give advertisers, many of whom have never tried TV advertising before, access to the desirable BLOOMBERG TELEVISION demographic.”
"We're very happy with the progress of Google TV Ads," said Michael Kelly, executive vice president for DISH Network, Google TV Ads' current inventory partner. "Google TV Ads has brought more accurate, accessible, and up-to-date viewer measurement to the industry, enhancing value to our advertisers."
