FeedBurner Advertising Network

We aim to further increase participation and become the largest RSS (Feed) advertising network in Japan.
 
Premium Blog Pack
The Premium Blog Pack (IT/Digital version) makes it possible to target advertising to RSS (feed) subscribers. We deliver to readers valuable information and quality themes at the same time as promoting popular blogs with regular readerships as advertising media. The unique FeedBurner RSS advertising distribution service makes it possible to target advertising to regular readers of a blog (RSS subscribers to that blog).
The blog pack ensures Internet users always receive detailed, up-to-date information and provides effective advertising media that directly reaches RSS feed subscribers (currently around one million per month), a group recognized as being particularly open to word of mouth communication.
