17 August 2015

  At Taboola, we think every day should be a day to explore the world – whether outside or online – because you never know when you’ll discover something new. So, it should be no surprise that we wanted to acknowledge today’s official public holiday in Canada: Discovery Day. Canada’s Discovery Day was established to honor the anniversary of the discovery of gold on August 16,1896. The shiny precious metal was found in the Klondike region of the Yukon and the event marked the beginning of the Klondike Gold Rush, prompting enthusiastic miners from Seattle and San Francisco to join the search. As you might have already guessed, “Discovery Day” is celebrated in several other parts of the world, signifying a variety of different events and sightings.

Though it is a comparative newcomer to the advertising landscape, native advertising has come to occupy a significant portion of the conversation surrounding digital marketing.  Stellar examples of native ads in BuzzFeed and The New York Times have received a great deal of attention, and last year, John Oliver dedicated a lengthy (if cynical) segment of Last Week Tonight to the topic.  In each instance, native advertising is discussed as something new.  But while the name itself is only a few years old, native advertising actually has a history dating back almost a century—or longer. Native’s Predecessors: Advertorials and Branded Entertainment The precedent for native was first established in the form of print advertorials, which were sufficiently common by 1917 that a nationally syndicated column spoke out against “the paid write-up.”  But the practice gained traction—and acceptance.  In 1927, for example, the Honolulu Advertiser ran an eighty-page advertorial, sponsored by […]

  As Mother’s Day approaches, we thought it was prime time to take a closer look at what makes moms tick (Hint: It’s not just baby content) and how marketers can connect with (and convert) this highly-sought after target audience. Here are 5 things to consider when creating content for today’s digitally savvy modern moms: Move beyond desktops. According to the IAB 2015 State of Modern Motherhood report, 90% of millennial moms own smartphones as opposed to only 65% in 2012, and 57% of millennial moms own tablets versus 29% in 2012.

A recent study conducted by AOL and Insights Now found that moms with younger children spend 22% more time on their smartphones every month than the average millennial. To maximize your brand’s exposure to this target audience, ensure your content is easily […]

Peanut butter is to jelly as crackers are to… CHEESE! With that obvious pairing in mind, a few snack cracker experts went on a mission to “spread” their wealth of information about cheese to the world. See what I did there? Enter “CheeseRank,” a website dedicated to all things queso. Like bacon, cheese is generally loved by most and some people even crave cheese products to the point of obsession.

CheeseRank’s content […]
