In the mobile marketing space, there\u2019s no consensus about how long an ad needs to be viewed to count.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>TikTok currently lets advertisers bid on people who view ads for at least six seconds, or who click on the ad.<\/li>\n<li>Snap, meanwhile, offers the same tools, but considers a view to be only two seconds.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p class=\"dist__StyledText-sc-630f0a6f-12 eHEXyM\">That difference is something that the consortium is trying to account for, Cohen said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dist__StyledText-sc-630f0a6f-12 eHEXyM\">\u201cViewability has been a problem for a very long time,\u201d she said. \u201cAll those different companies have had their own definitions for it; the standard has always been a problem.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"dist__StyledText-sc-630f0a6f-12 eHEXyM\">Instead of forcing partners to agree to a minimum standard, the hope is that the engagement-based metrics will help offer more transparency to the ecosystem, Cohen said. Some of the details of the new standards, including the minimum amount of time for some videos to be viewed before being considered \u201cengaged views,\u201d will be determined in early 2024.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dist__StyledText-sc-630f0a6f-12 eHEXyM\">The new metrics may help some platforms stand out more than others. In practice, an engaged view will be a stronger metric than just a view, because the user either didn\u2019t skip the ad or spent more time watching it, Francesco Renzo, VP of go to market at Moloco, a DSP that works with mobile apps, said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dist__StyledText-sc-630f0a6f-12 eHEXyM\">\u201cI\u2019d rather give credit to the network with the engaged view than the network with the simple view,\u201d he told Marketing Brew.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dist__StyledText-sc-630f0a6f-12 eHEXyM\"><em>Correction 11\/22\/2023: This piece was updated to clarify that the\u00a0coalition has no official name and to more accurately describe the involved companies. <\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>Read the full article <a href=\"https:\/\/www.marketingbrew.com\/stories\/2023\/11\/22\/tiktok-snap-and-other-apps-call-for-new-mobile-measurement-standards?utm_source=&#038;utm_medium=syndication&#038;utm_campaign=feed\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">here<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Get marketing news you&#8217;ll actually want to read Marketing Brew informs marketing pros of the latest on brand strategy, social media, and ad tech via our weekday newsletter, virtual events, marketing conferences, and digital guides.
