Yahoo's History, Told Through AdExchanger Comics

It's easy to forget, but Yahoo was once the largest and most promising digital media company - its stock a bellwether for the internet sector as a whole. By Q1 2017, regulatory hurdles permitting, that stock will stop trading as the company's people, its portfolio of brands and its technology assets are absorbed into Verizon. To honor Yahoo's important role in... Continue reading »

Yahoo Announces 'Material' Mobile Revenue In Earnings

Yahoo says its investments in mobile have paid off. The company announced its mobile revenue in Q3 exceeded $200 million, or 20% of its $1.1 billion in GAAP revenue. Mobile revenue doubled year over year, including both search and display. Revenue growth on mobile far outpaced user growth. 550 million people are mobile monthly active... Continue reading »

Yahoo's Display Revenue Falls Again, And Marissa Mayer Is 'Not Satisfied'

In its second quarter, Yahoo sold 24% more ads compared to the second quarter of 2013, and yet the price per ad went down 24%, suggesting the company has been unable to stem the tide against declining CPMs. (Read the press release.) CEO Marissa Mayer expressed disappointment in the company's display ad performance. "Our top priority is... Continue reading »

Why Yahoo Needs To Solve Its Mobile Ad Problem Quickly

Although Yahoo CEO Marissa Mayer emphasized the importance of mobile advertising to the company’s growth during Tuesday’s earnings call, she acknowledged that Yahoo’s mobile ad revenue has yet to become a significant portion of the company’s total revenue, which could greatly hamper the company’s future profits. The company’s mobile revenue “is still not material,” Mayer... Continue reading »

Yahoo Reports Q4 Results; Mayer To Take The Reins In Driving Ad Revenue

Yahoo's Display, Search Struggles Continue Into Q3

A year after Yahoo CEO Marissa Mayer said there was more potential "upside" for the portal's revenues in search than display, its Q3 performance suggests it will not reverse its declines soon. Among the topline results in Yahoo's Q3 (read the earnings release): GAAP display revenues fell 7% to $470 million. Last year, this percentage... Continue reading »

Mayer On Yahoo's Future: It's All About Personalization And Partnerships

Maybe it's the turbulence that has surrounded Yahoo for the last several years, or maybe it's reflective of CEO Marissa Mayer's general worldview, but when asked about the competitive landscape by Charlie Rose during a Q&A at the IAB Mixx conference, she said the portal is more of a potential partner than a challenger to...

A Day After Vowing Ad Tech Investment, Yahoo Buys AdMovate

Following Yahoo CEO Marissa Mayer's vague comments during Tuesday's Q2 earnings call promising to increase investments in the company's ad-tech offerings, the portal has done something concrete by acquiring mobile-ad targeter and data-management software provider AdMovate. Barely a year old and, up until now, operating in stealth mode, AdMovate describes its purpose as delivering "personalized,... Continue reading »

As AOL's Brody Resigns, Will Yahoo Build Ad Tech 'Dream Team'?

On paper, the combination of Henrique de Castro, Yahoo's chief operating officer, Brian Silver, the former Travel Ad Network CEO who became Yahoo's VP of ad platforms over a year ago, and AOL Networks CEO Ned Brody -- who just resigned from that post -- as head of ad sales for Yahoo North America, sounds perfect....
