AdYapper ROAS Optimization Platform Backed by MRC Accredited Video Viewability Measurement

CHICAGO, IL--(Marketwired - Feb 1, 2016) - This week, Chicago-based technology and advisory firm AdYapper announced the accreditation of their measurement of desktop video viewable impressions and related viewability statistics by the Media Rating Council (MRC). The firm is also accredited by the MRC for desktop display viewability measurement.

"At AdYapper, we empower performance advertisers with the deepest available measurement technology and campaign optimizations that maximize return on ad spend (ROAS)," said Elliot Hirsch, CEO and Founder of AdYapper. "Our third-party measurement solution is a critical first step toward the ultimate goal of helping brands separate good from bad media, people, and actions -- tying them to brand-side profits. This approach is a next evolution for the digital advertising industry, and working with the MRC has helped us increase these capabilities across all fronts."

MRC accreditation assures advertisers that AdYapper's desktop display and video viewability measurements adhere to the Council's Minimum Standards for Media Rating Research and MRC's Viewable Impression Measurement Guidelines, and any applicable measurement guidelines issued by the Interactive Advertising Bureau.

"We congratulate AdYapper on achieving and maintaining these industry standards of quality," said George W. Ivie, CEO and Executive Director of the MRC.
