Nielsen Adds Measurement for YouTube Mobile In-App in the Philippines
Nielsen Digital Ad Ratings Provides Independent View of Key Digital Video Platforms’ Audience
Pasig City, Philippines – June 3, 2019 – Nielsen announced today it has expanded advertising measurement on YouTube’s mobile app with Nielsen Digital Ad Ratings to 26 additional countries: PHILIPPINES, BELGIUM, BRAZIL, BULGARIA, CZECH REPUBLIC, GREECE, HONG KONG, HUNGARY, INDIA, INDONESIA, IRELAND, ISRAEL, MALAYSIA, MEXICO, NETHERLANDS, NEW ZEALAND, NORWAY, POLAND, PUERTO RICO, SINGAPORE, SOUTH AFRICA, SPAIN, TAIWAN, THAILAND, TURKEY & THE UNITED ARAB EMIRATES.
Now available in 34 countries, this service builds on Nielsen’s current measurement coverage of YouTube ads on desktop and mobile web browsers to provide marketers independent and comprehensive cross-device measurement of advertising audiences on YouTube across computer and mobile devices. Measurement of Digital Ad Ratings for YouTube’s mobile app was made available in the U.S. in June 2017, in Canada and Japan in October 2017, in the U.K., France and Germany in January 2018, and in Australia and Italy on Sept. 1, 2018.
With this expansion, Nielsen Digital Ad Ratings clients will have access to age and gender demographics for consumers viewing advertising on the YouTube mobile app, as well as reach, frequency and gross rating points (GRPs). Measurement of YouTube ads uses a consistent methodology with all other mobile publishers in Digital Ad Ratings—enabling both media buyers and sellers to leverage truly comparable and deduplicated persons-based measurement across publishers in their media planning and execution. With Nielsen Digital Ad Ratings, publishers, advertisers and media agencies will be able to gain a deeper understanding of their audience across YouTube using metrics comparable to those used for TV.
“As people increasingly watch video across digital platforms and devices, Nielsen’s comprehensive measurement of YouTube through Digital Ad Ratings is crucial to provide a complete picture of media consumption and help clients quantify their digital marketing investments,” said Tin Amper, executive director of Nielsen Media in the Philippines. “We are proud to be able to provide the Philippines with an independent view of the audience for advertising on YouTube in context of the wider viewing landscape.”
