So after the NDTV and Affle partnership and the consequent clarification by mkhoj on their deal with NDTV active there is another mobile advertising deal this time involving mKhoj itself. So Vuclip a mobile video search and delivery provider has tied up with mKhoj for a mobile advertising partnership. Under this tie up mKhoj will provide ads on Vuclip's mobile website and popularize Vuclip's mobile video search and delivery platform across mKhoj's mobile ad network. Its ironic given that at one point of time mKhoj itself was a mobile search player and t.hen redefinded and refocused its model to mobile ads and raised further funding. Talking about what may this deal entail Amit Gupta, Co-Founder and VP Business Development, mKhoj said, "We will also assist Vuclip in expanding its network of online-to-mobile content publishers by introducing our own publisher clients to Vuclip's video API platform." This space will soon have an aggressive international entrant in Admob (which has already been soft launced) and which claims to deliver hundreds of millions of mobile ad page views across the world. Its also important to note companies looking to tie up with mobile ad network specialists which are very different from the general online adnetworks. Again a hint towards the ever increasing value chain on the mobile end which was discussed at the recently concluded IAMAI conference. On the whole mobile advertising is exciting but if and only if one can aggegate enough publishers and bring credibility into the system with some performance measurement metrics. Also creative use of mobile phones as response devices may also bring better results.

There were some pretty interesting stuff to read about and came to know of a lot of campaign materials that I hadn’t seen previously. At WATBlog we have always put digital advertising content at the forefront, considering that’s the industry we cater to. However, advertising being advertising asks for a similar approach (albeit different execution) regardless of the medium, and hence digital or not we advertising beings are all the same breed really. So this one goes out to all our offline advertising friends, another small resource list from the WAT stable:
There you go, hope you find these sites as useful as I did and help you learn a lot more about advertising. If you have any other sites you recommend please do add them in the comments.
