SCMP Magazine Integrates IAS’s Publisher Optimisation Solutions to Deliver Quality Impressions for its Advertisers

Integral Ad Science, a global leader in digital media quality, today announced the integration of its Publisher Optimisation Solution with SCMP Magazines, Hong Kong’s leading magazine publisher, with a portfolio of premium lifestyle and fashion titles including Cosmopolitan, ELLE, Esquire, and Harper's BAZAAR.

By activating the IAS Publisher Optimisation solution, SCMP Magazines will directly improve their ad inventory's viewability, and match their advertisers' brand risk threshold by avoiding risky content. They will also be able to measure and automatically optimise toward low IVT rates in real-time, ensuring that their traffic is worth the investment. Thus meeting and exceeding advertisers' media quality standards, without the redundancies of manual campaign optimisations.

Jennifer Tsang, VP of digital of SCMP Magazines, said, "Our goal has always been to uphold high standards of MRC viewability and brand safety for advertiser campaigns running on Cosmopolitan, Harper’s BAZAAR, ELLE, and Esquire Hong Kong websites. IAS’s Publisher Optimisation Solutions allows us to do so effectively, through intelligent ad inventory management and optimisation.”

Laura Quigley, SVP APAC, said, “Advertisers are buying media in a new way. They’re looking for Quality Impressions: impressions that are viewable, by real people, in a safe and suitable environment, all within the correct geo. IAS's Publisher Optimisation solution seamlessly integrates publishers' ad servers and powers their inventory to automatically optimise ad delivery down to the placement level for direct and programmatic deals. We’re very excited to partner with SCMP magazines to help advertisers ensure that they continue to invest in digital safely and efficiently”.
