Addressability, Measurement and Interactivity now available through a single platform using ETV/EBIF Standard
New York, NY (Vocus/PRWeb) December 1, 2008 -- Visible World and Ensequence today announced a solution that offers media companies and advertisers a comprehensive advertising product that provides addressability, measurement and interactivity through a single platform using the ETV/EBIF standard. By leveraging the ETV/EBIF industry standard, interactive television advertising content can now be delivered to a specific target audience through Ensequence's interactive television platform and Visible World's intelliSpot® Connect platform, an addressable network that enables advertisers to target their ads by household, geography or content. Reporting is provided by intelliSpot Insight, which enables advertisers to verify and evaluate the performance of campaigns.
Visible World and Ensequence demonstrated this new advanced advertising solution to a group of industry professionals consisting of cable operators and programming providers at the CableLabs® Interop in Louisville, Colorado.
