Editor's Notes
We engage with 600 million consumers worldwide every month. Consumers come to Yahoo! to connect with the people and things that matter to them most. That means we can connect you to the consumers that matter most to your business.
We will start this presentation with an overview of the media landscape. We are operating in a dynamic media market with lots of fragmentation. But – where are consumers spending their time? There are so many different ways to reach people – so many different media channels. It is hard to find everyone and reach your market effectively and efficiently. Then, we will move into Why Yahoo!. Yahoo! is focused on combining the power of our vast, engaged audience to reach your audience We offer deep consumer insights and industry-leading targeting tools and we create customized programs to build your business. This is the specific opportunity I’m here to talk about today.
Increased competition for consumer attention Increased fragmentation of media Proliferation of niche networks Rapid changes in media consumption patterns Users find it overwhelming and unmanageable Marketers find that interactive tools are more effective than traditional ones More measurable Less expensive Consumers today expect a customized, interactive experience online that goes beyond a 30-second TV spot or 2-dimensional print ad Consumer readership of newspapers and magazines has dropped 17% and 6% respectively, since 2005 Offline publishers have struggled to translate their impression-based ad sales into viable online businesses. Consumers today expect a customized, interactive experience that goes beyond a 30-second TV spot or 2-dimensional print ad Social media is an evolving opportunity 42% of online adults and 55% of online youth want to engage with their favorite brands through social applications

It is fair to say you can reach your audience through our O&O. e.g. of leadership and reach in the marketplace: Not to lament on an unfortunate situation, but a recent big news event serves as a great example. When Michael Jackson passed, Yahoo! broke traffic records by providing up to the minute news, photos, blogs and video. 16.4 m people (all unique users) visited Y! News in ONE day. Our front page story was the highest clicking story in Y!’s history. 5 m videos were streamed 21,000 people left comments on a Y!

Reach + Engagement – The combination is critical, not just one or the other. Wide Reach = maximize the number of unique prospects you can reach Engagement – 2 Key Benefits You want to have frequent opportunities to communicate with (and influence) any given unique prospect; Understand each unique prospect more quickly and timely because of faster user behavioral data accumulation Influcence or tell advertiser the key criteria – when you have reach & engagement you have a good basis for targeting Wide reach and frequent engagement Reach is a big net Engagement – for all the people who have fallen into the net – how many time do they engage with is – need a big net and many opportunitis to touch that person. Ongoing engagement…. Benefits to customer – freq opportunities to show person the ad Freq interactions lead to more data (what are they looking for, what ad did they see, what are they searching for)

Visualizing Search Information – People looking for local businesses can more easily choose the company they want by seeing reviews and photos overlaid on top of a map directly on the search results page. People searching for travel can visualize the places they want to visit with images in the search results. Customized Searches – Search Monkey is a Yahoo!-specific capability that helps publishers and developers organize search data better. For example, video searches include video files embedded in the results, and product searches include prices and images. As a result, search becomes both more relevant and eye-catching to people.
