35. Background
•
Town Centre launched new web & mobile sites for ARM and NZRNN - Nov 2012
•
Town Centre project radically de-scoped by ARM – resulting in loss of:
–
–
Community building functionality – for local communities & local business
Community related commercial opportunities
36. Background
•
Essentially what was delivered was a redesign
•
NZRNN web & mobile sites controlled &
developed by ARM – NZ had little/no
input into product roadmap
•
No ability to improve on initial designs
•
Site architecture resulted in poor user
experience
•
ARM URL structure limited analytics
tracking
•
Lack of timely technical help from ARM
37. Bringing the sites back to NZ
Benefits of integrating the NZ Regional sites into the nzherald.co.nz domain:
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
Cost savings – hosting & maintenance in AU - $285K
Greater scope to monetize the Regional inventory
Efficiencies created by a single platform
Good positioning for a potential paywall opportunity – bundled subscription
packages with NZH & NZR
Competitive advantage for APN – Increased nzherald.co.nz UB numbers –
potential to match or exceed stuff.co.nz
A more comprehensive content offering for the NZH & NZR readers
Improved analytics tracking
Maintain the same Regional URL’s (http://www.hawkesbaytoday.co.nz/)
Common user experience mechanisms
38. Integration - key criteria

brand identity so that readers who only visit for regional
content feel they are visiting a regional site

80. Key metrics to take into account
Traffic and audience
For an advertiser they look at our unique browsers/audience to make sure their product or brand will reach
the amount of people they need it to, but they will purchased based on page impressions.
Demographics
Demographic information allows tailoring of propositions, showing that their brand can be exposed to either
their target market (if we fit that) or how we can compliment their current offering.
Engagement
Engagement metrics can be helpful in Sales when demonstrating that we can offer premium product. These
metrics would help support the traffic and audience numbers.
80
81. When to use us
There are a number of different scenarios that you can use Ad Ops, Research or Product
Analytics a few of which are…
Pitching to a new client or for a new campaign
This is a great chance to speak with the Research team, discuss the story we want to tell. How do we fit into
their offering, what are the latest or forecasted numbers for the period that they are looking at etc.
Inventory queries
All inventory queries should be directed to the Ad Ops team.
Audience demographics
The Research team can help with top level demographics as well as Mosaic profiling.
Post campaign reporting
Where it has been an integrated campaign it will be potentially a mix of Product Analytics, Ad Ops and
Research that will be providing reporting. To keep things easy, feel free to contact one person and we can
pull the information.
For any ad served content, Ad Ops will help
Section numbers
For information on specific sections come through to Product Analytics
81
82. What else can we provide?
APN tracks all of the core components of a site and page specific elements such as the section
ID’s, tags, page types, content types, page names etc., through to the hour of day, day of week
and content placement on a page.
A few key ways where Product Analytics can help are:
Using the insights we collect to see how people use the site, how long do they spend in a
section, what other sections are they likely to view in an average visit, etc.
What the performance is like from different referrers, if an advertiser wants to target social
users and they have a campaign linked to editorial content on the site, we can look at how
much will that reader consume on average in the sections.
If a lofty target has been insisted upon by an advertiser, we can provide insights in what
changes may be needed to achieve the target (if there are any).
Work with Ad Ops with Mobile App traffic and audience estimates.

85. Commercial Team Ad Ops
APN NZ Media is a division of APN New Zealand Ltd.
86. What is Ad Ops
•
Ad Ops controls and operates the ad servers as their primary responsibility.
Almost everyone in the company depends on us for something. Whether it’s the
marketing team trying to get a promotion live, the finance needing accurate
historical reports, the Product development team trying to evaluate and implement
a new technology, or just the day to day interaction with the Sales team to
understand what clients want. Ad Ops is an information hub within the
company, and a key resource for getting things done!
•
From a strategic standpoint, virtually any new technology, from workflow
management to analytics to data management eventually needs to interact with
the ad server, so Ad Ops is inherently at the centre of those conversations and
product rollouts
•
Responsible for pricing, ad product creation, inventory management etc
•
In summary Ad Ops refers to processes and systems that support the sale and delivery of
online advertising, we really do it all..

89. Products
•
When booking in a digital campaign you need to select which product used whether you want your campaign to
run across the site or in a particular channel such as National News, Business, Sport and so on.. The product you
select determines where your advertisement will run. Words to look out for SOV, Daily Buys Freq caps, Time
Targeting, Geo Targeting, Contextual (keywords)
•
Most campaigns are sold on a cost per 1,000 or CPM therefore you always need to enter in a cost per impression
as below
•
Example: If you wanted to booked a Headline Rectangle 300x250 on the Northern Advocate for 23,500 page
impressions @ $13.90 CPM the flight would look like below
•
Please note there are a few exceptions where the cost is fixed such as sponsorship buys, production
costs, textlinks etc which are listed with a flat rate buy in the rate card, or which can't be attributed to an
impressions goal, e.g. marketplace. For these products only that you should use the Flat Rate option.
90. Big Banner 760x120 or
728x90 run at the top of the page
Medium Rectangles 300x250
Depending on how long the articles are
we can serve up to three rectangles on
the page
1)
Headline Rec (above the fold)
2)
Content Rec within the article
3)
Direct Rectangle
91. • 300x600 or
Half Pages
- this ad size runs in the headline
rectangle position
• 460x400 or
Super
Rectangles
this ad size currently runs in
the content rectangle position
94. Text Links & Relevant Offers
Special Offers
Special Offers move from the bottom of
the page to the side bar. They will
maintain the same format but operate as
a carousel.
50x50 Logo with up to 90 characters.
Relevant Offers
Relevant offers are contextually targeted
by keyword, tag or article I.D. They are
given more space and are placed in line
with the content. The heading will
change dynamically depending on the
type of booking made. E.g. Now
Hiring, Now Leasing, Press Release.
Image: 140 x 93
Heading: Max 70 characters (Similar to Google
search results)
Text: Max 200 Characters
95. Rich Media
•
Rich Media refers to online advertising that makes use of a range of interactive digital media including streaming video and audio
that is fetching to the eye or created in a format that isn’t standard GIF. More specifically this means that the ad pulls in additional
information from a server beyond what is served up with the initial load.
•
Rich media must be 3rd party ad served – this means that we are not hosting the creative via SAS but rather a third party supplier
such as double click, media mind or facilitate. There are extra costs involved with third party ad serving but there are added
bonuses when using this service.
96. Billboards 970x250
•
•
This is one of my personal favourite ad units its big and its easily closed. We prefer to have as limited animation within the creative
as possible. The idea of these rules is to not annoy readers and to reduce the close rates for advertisers. Once the ad is closed, its
replaced on the next impression by either a rectangle (when served on the homepage) or a big banner (when served elsewhere
on the site) the Billboard ad can be expanded again so everybody wins.
Billboards can run on the Homepage or as channel buys such as national news etc
98. All messaging in the wallpapers must fall within the 130 pxl line as
below, anything outside of this area will be cut off from a large part of
our audience for users on smaller screens.
99. Contextual Targeting
•
•
•
•
300x250 and 760x120
Is a form of targeting
your advert to specific
content via a list of
keywords
The server scans the first
250 words of an article
and if one of the
keywords supplied is
found then your ad will
be served.
This is a great way to
target your core
demographic.
100. Geo-Targeting
•
We can target to specific
regions or even countries
•
We can even target cities
based on weather
temperatures
102. How to check inventory
SAS http://apnnz.aimatch.com
•
Reports > Product Reports> filter by date and
product > Run Report
You can use this tool to pull all projected inventory
except run of site. We need to use a separate report
for all ROS avails due to the tier ie Standard CPM –
Pre-emptible.
To pull ROS inventory Report> BI Reports > ROS
Inventory > and filter by dates required
105. Servers

has been entered into media manager you will export the IO and send on to client/agency to approve. Once approved you will
need to convert proposal which is when we are alerted to the booking. PLEASE BE 100% SURE THE DETAILS ARE CORRECT
BEFORE CONVERTING THE IO.
