Businesses that are constantly advertising on the web using banner images, or those that are moving into video advertising, maybe looking at significant changes in regard to the duration that ads must be viewed by the general public in order to be counted as impressions. For the people surfing on the web, this may not dramatically affect their ability to find the information or products they are looking for. It simply means that ads must be delivered for a consistent 1 to 2 second period of time to be properly counted, which is more impactful on businesses that it is someone surfing the web.
This is how companies that run businesses online make their money, and how others are able to drive traffic to their websites and offers. According to the MRC, the way that you view these ads is about to change which is beneficial for everyone involved.
They are requiring 50% of all of the pixels that are displayed on the Internet browser to be seen for a new minimum amount of time in order to be counted. This is about one second for ads that are displayed, and for video ads, this is doubled at 2 seconds. This is a more reliable assessment of these types of ads and their impact on the public that sees them.
A PSA was launched via IAB to educate the public and companies worldwide. This information may be well-received, or not, but its intention is to simply provide a better metric for measuring ads today. At one point a few months ago, the public was able to comment on these changes during a one-month period of time. Hopefully these changes will go into effect and positively influence advertising for both companies and people alike.
The proposed change as presented by the Emerging Innovations Task Force in combination with the efforts of MRC is to change the guidelines for what are called viewable impressions when people see ads on the web. Essentially, half of the pixels for both video and regular ads must be seen for two and one seconds, respectively.
Now that you have a basic understanding of what MRC has proposed and done, you might want to chime in on how this will affect the way you surf the web, or your business for advertising. Examples of these changes are on the Internet as presented by IAB and MRC for the public to view and consider today.
