AdDefend Award: the winners

A steadily rising number of advertisers target adblock users. This target group could no longer be reached online. The publisher network that displays unblockable ads is growing steadily. We provide 1,8 billion ad impressions per month on more than 150 websites.

In 2016, we were able to win many new agencies and direct customers for our AdDefend reach. With our help, creatives and agencies could make use of the unique features of the new target group of adblock users. It is important to us not to disturb the user while consuming the content. We believe that this is an important reason for the great performances of the campaigns.
