InTopic Media Announces New PPC Ad Campaign Opportunities

Atlanta, Ga. — InTopic Media recently announced that it is opening up its ad network to outside advertisers for the first time. InTopic is an online ad network that specializes in in-text advertising.

InTopic has managed ad campaigns on behalf of advertisers since its official launch earlier this year, but the new initiative means advertisers can now join InTopic, submit their own ads themselves and retain control over every aspect of their campaigns.

“We’re making it really easy for advertisers to get started with PPC in-text campaigns of their own,” says Jason Winston, InTopic’s vice president of marketing and sales. “They pick which keywords the ads appear on, they pick what CPC prices they want to pay, they upload their ad creatives and they’re ready to advertise our publisher network in just a few minutes.”

InTopic meets the needs of multi-level advertisers by providing the most cost-effective way to deliver run-of-nework ads tied to keywords. Building an in-text campaign is now easier than ever with the launch of InTopic’s user-friendly and transparent Advertiser Dashboard.

InTopic ads appear when a web user mouses over a double-underlined hyperlinked keyword in the text of websites. The advertiser has free rein to use text, images, animation or video inside its ads, as well as to choose exactly which relevant keywords they want to trigger their ads. InTopic also offers an innovative Keyword Bidding System that allows advertisers to bid on the keywords they want to own.

InTopic officially launched its ad network in May, since then the company has aggressively grown its network of publisher websites.

“We’re a new company, but we’re growing very quickly,” says Winston. “We’re finding that there’s a real demand out there among website owners for a PPC in-text ad network that gives generous payouts to content-rich sites. That means every day we’re growing the number of impressions and clicks we serve to advertisers, which gives them much more exposure.”

Because InTopic’s ads are run-of-network and tied to relevant keywords, the company is accepting advertisers in all verticals and niches. Affiliate marketers and ad agencies are also invited to join InTopic. The company touts its risk-free ad campaigns, which require a minimum ad buy of only $50.

Based in Atlanta, Ga., InTopic Media, LLC is a provider of in-text advertising solutions. Founded in 2009, Sintext has developed two major innovations for in-text advertisers: Our Keyword Bidding System is a competitive bidding system that keeps costs low and our MicroBanner™ ad is a completely new in-text product that opens up tremendous new branding possibilities.

So today’s we’re going to answer that two ways: the simple answer and then the REAL answer.

The simple answer is easy:

1. Put more keywords on your page so that more ads show up.

2. Get your users to click on the ads more often.

OK, fine, but HOW do I accomplish that? Well, that answer is slightly more complex.

The real answer is that, publishers don’t really need to worry about the exact keywords they put on their websites. Instead, they should focus on creating high-quality content that their users trust.

Instead of trying to game the system to get the keywords with the highest CPCs, publishers are MUCH better off building the trust of their site’s users. The ultimate reason for this is that in-text ads get extremely high CTRs (click-through rates) when they’re seen by uses who already trust the site content.

When you produce high-quality content that users trust, you’ll find that users also overwhelmingly trust the in-text advertising on your site. And that means more revenue for you!

Here’s our advice for any publisher who wants to optimize their in-text advertising: Create original content that’s compelling, trustworthy, authoritative, original and interesting. After all, when it comes to online traffic, quality is oftentimes more important than quantity.

One of the things that makes InTopic so unique is our MicroBanner logo ad. We think it’s really going to be a game-changer in the contextual advertising industry. So what is it? It’s not a banner ad, but an in-text advertisement that allows an advertiser to embed a logo directly into the text of the publisher’s website.

The advantages are enormous. You’re connecting your brand directly to content, so the branding potential is huge. And MicroBanner ads still behave just like normal in-text ads… when a user mouses over the link, an ad appears on the screen. In Beta testing we saw massive increases in CTR for advertisers who use MicroBanners… on the order of 9 times higher than traditional in-text ads.
