adMarketplace is a search advertising marketplace. The privately held company is headquartered in New York City.[1]

adMarketplace introduced an algorithmic bidding solution, BidSmart, for their search advertising platform in early 2014.[2]

Search advertising marketplaces represent a sizable but often overlooked segment of the Search Engine Marketing industry.

Services[edit]

adMarketplace operates an online marketplace that connects advertisers and publishers to serve PPC search ads on publisher properties in response to a user's search. The company places keyword-targeted ads on web properties outside of traditional search engine result pages.

adMarketplace offers advertisers scale and performance via access to exclusive search traffic, according to the company website.[1]

For publishers, the company offers custom search monetization, flexible implementation, and transparent reporting. Publisher partners include Firefox, Afterpay, and Avast Browser. [3]

The company positions itself as the only search syndication marketplace and allows advertisers to separate bid management by device type (computer/tablet/phone) and traffic source. The company claims that increased pricing control and transparency results in a higher ROI for advertisers.[4][5]

In 2013, adMarketplace partnered with Kenshoo to offer integration through Kenshoo's campaign management dashboard.[6]

Recognition[edit]

In 2014, adMarketplace was named to Deloitte’s Technology Fast 500 as one of the fastest growing technology companies in North America.[7]

The Data Warehousing Institute (TDWI) named adMarketplace a 2014 Best Practices Award winner in Big Data Technology for its Advertiser 3D and BidSmart technologies.[8] Hewlett Packard also recognized adMarketplace with the 2014 Discover Award for its innovation in big data even though their tracking technology is known for its faults.[9]

History[edit]

adMarketplace was founded by James Hill in 2000. From 2003 to 2006, it was the exclusive search advertising platform for eBay; when that exclusivity ended, the company opened its platform to all advertisers and publishers.[10] The immediate impact was a major downsize, with just seven employees at one point,[11] but it then grew 50% in 2008 and reached 80 employees in 2011.[11] In 2012, adMarketplace grew to 100 employees, and was named the 8th fastest growing company in New York by Crains.[12] In 2014, adMarketplace was ranked one of the fastest growing technology companies in North America by Deloitte on their annual Fast 500 list,[13] and in 2016 adMarketplace was among the first 100 companies approved for the Trustworthy Accountability Group (TAG) registry
