Ad Products and Marketing Offers
Platrium gives users free access to games, avatars, emoticons and other valuable programs and content. The cost of providing consumers free access to the Platrium content library is subsidized by various advertising and marketing offers. Platrium ads and/or marketing offers will be presented to users in the following formats:
Advertising
Slider Ads
For this advertising format, we deliver relevant ads to consumers while they are most interested in an advertiser’s product or service. Here’s how it works. An advertiser purchases keyword search terms. Then, when a keyword comes up while a user is searching or browsing online, a related slider ad is sent to the user’s desktop.
Similar to email alerts, this ad unit temporarily slides up from the lower right-hand corner of the desktop. Then, if the user clicks on the Slider, a separate browser window opens that delivers this targeted viewer directly to the advertiser’s website or landing page.
Comparison Shopping
Our SmartShopper feature provides consumers with a fast, easy and free comparison shopping service to help them find the best deals from the best merchants. This personal online shopper appears as a sidebar list of relevant links based on a user’s current online search. SmartShopper gives consumers timely advice on where and what to buy, offers unbiased opinions from other users and experts, and suggests alternative product options when relevant.
Related Search
Found on the Platrium Playbar, this dynamic button contains a drop-down menu containing a set of relevant search terms activated by the users most recent online browsing. With one click, this convenient feature provides the consumer with an up-to-date list of related search terms for a faster and easier online search.
