  Publishers

  Along with perception changing:

  •    CPM rates fell

  8. Webservices – API (Calls) – End Point URL – XML Post Server2server – Uses webservices – Server2server is session based unless a cookie is in place - uniqueCookie alternatives – none viable for non-session tracking – flash cookies more robustVouchercode tracking can be cookie or server to server
