AOLlogo.jpg

Search retargeting and post-click behavioral targeting is the future of search. The future’s here - now - with the launch of Platform A’s integrated search marketing platform using Tacoda technology.

Call it Platform A.O.L.

ClickZ’s reporting that the use of Tacoda technology will begin in June across the whole Platform A network. That means marketers will have a single software platform for tracking, reporting and delivering, and running behavioral marketing campaigns.

For anyone following innovations in search marketing campaigns, that’s exciting news.

We’re sure some savvy marketer will be the first to design an award-winning search campaign on Platform AOL.

Fredrick Marckini to Give Opening Keynote at SES Toronto

Fredrick Marckini, chief global search officer of Isobar, will be giving the opening keynote speech at SES Toronto on Tuesday, June 17, 2008. Fredrick also gave the opening keynote at SES London back in February.

While he was in London, I interviewed him about his keynote speech on search engine marketing trends and his duties at Isobar. You can get a pretty good idea of Fredrick’s perspective by watching the YouTube video below — which has just been posted in its entirety. (A portion of Fredrick’s interview was included in our Day 1 roundup.)

And, as you’ll see, YouTube’s recent site updates now enable you view the high quality video by just clicking on the television icon below and to the right instead of using the format 18 code.
