- GMO AdNetworks
Tokyo – March 19, 2007 -- GMO AdNetworks, the GMO Internet Group company that distributes advertising to blogs, personal homepages and other websites, has launched AdRecipe, a new category matching affiliate marketing service. To celebrate the launch of the new service we are offering free set up and no fees for the first three months.
AdRecipe – Category Matching Affiliate Service
Advertisers divide advertisements into categories to which keywords are assigned and those advertisements are distributed to the operators of blogs and web sites (partners) that match the keywords and categories. Partners earn income based on the number of times an advertisement placed on their site is displayed or how many times visitors to their site click on an advertisement.
Placing ads on relevant sites makes it possible for advertisers to target specific customers and increase click through rates.
