MySpace Launches MyAds Tonight, Thinks It Will Be A Major Cash Source. Will It? | tinyCrunch

by Jason Wilk on October 12, 2008

  • MySpace launched MyAds tonight, a new self serve ad platform that lets anyone serve an ad throughout the MySpace network.
  • Users can choose between uploading a 728×90 or 300×250 ad or can create their own ad using the flash tools inside the MyAds portal.
  • Similar to Google and unlike Facebook (Facebook has a CPC and CPM model), advertisers will pay less if their ads are clicked a lot
  • Powering the service is SDC, an ad monetization company that Fox Interactive purchased last year (Hey, An Investment They Are Putting To Use!)
  • Advertisers will gain access to MyAd’s hypertargeting technology which helps target the 1,200 different ways they have categorized their user base.

MySpace CEO says this will be a major revenue source for them, but will it be that major?

    iPromote.com dedicated their entire business to let people display ads through MySpace. Didn't work out. I just don't think this will be as great as Chris thinks.
