eZanga’s ‘Performance’ Noted in Publication

Tuesday, February 9th, 2010

Revenue Performance, a magazine that features a sharp and in-depth look at the online marketing industry, featured one of eZanga’s own Account Managers, Shane Donnelly, in its most recent issue in an article titled “Seasonal Sunshine” by Susan Kuchinskas.

In the article, Donnelly lends his take on how search engines such as eZanga.com can be a helpful outlet for affiliates looking to capitalize on search engine marketing during the holiday season.

“(Major marketers) dominate the market and drive cost-per-click so high that affiliates can’t compete anymore, even for what they thought was an obscure keyword,” he said. “They have teams of people looking for those same obscure keywords. During the holidays, when you can’t afford the cost-per-click on Yahoo, Google or MSN, second-tier search engines are the place to go.”

eZanga – Rising Competition for Google

Monday, January 4th, 2010

Pete Barlas’ recent article on Yahoo News titled ‘Rising Competition Slows Growth for Google’s Online Ad Network’ cites eZanga as an effective alternative for online advertisers looking to move away from networks like Google. The article also can be found at Investors.com in its ‘technology’ section.

“Picky advertisers have been good news for eZanga,” the article states. “The company is one of the many search engines besides the big three. It also has an ad network of 20,000 Web sites that carry its search ads. There is much overlap, with Web sites often carrying ads from multiple networks.”

eZanga founder and CEO Rich Kahn is quoted in the article, discussing the advantages advertisers gain by using eZanga’s network – namely cheaper rates than the competition.

“Our network is growing simply from the fact that people can buy traffic on our network for less money,” he said. “We are seeing (advertisers) looking to the alternative search engines for lower costs per click so that they can reduce their costs.”

Is Multi-Platform Advertising The Way To Go?

Friday, October 9th, 2009

Online Advertising has become the go-to way to advertise in recent years. But some businesses may not be aware of just how many different ways they can reach customers on the web to promote their products and services. Not only that, some may not know which of those ways is the best way to get a better Return on Investment.

A new article at BizReport.com aims to show businesses that instead of choosing between SEM and Display advertising, it just might be beneficial to combine the two to get the necessary results. “Why you should consider a multi-platform approach” by Kristina Knight points out that the two work well together and eZanga CEO Rich Kahn was interviewed to help explain why:

“Display ads have always been high on branding but haven’t been high on conversions. Search has been high on conversions but not on branding. When you combine the two, they are very powerful,” Kahn said. “It all comes down to the budget of the customer.”

Read the article in its entirety at BizReport.com for more on what Kahn has to say about combining multiple advertising platforms and why it is a favorable option in a struggling economy.
