Digital Analytics Meets TV


In an age where nearly everyone is glued to their smartphones, it is easy to forget one of the original pioneers of “digital”: the television. Before the internet and our modern digital age existed, people’s main source of acquiring information was strictly through radio, television, and newspaper. With things such as Amazon’s Alexa, the Google Dot, Siri, and Cortana, we are able to ask for the weather, scores of a sports game, or even order products.

The digital world is moving to an age where soon we will be able to track the analytics from seeing an advertisement on TV, immediately visiting the site or purchasing the product, and through the person’s IP address be able to know that the site visit/purchase is directly a subsequent response correlated to the ad. In a video presented by www.adage.com titled “Bringing Digital Analytics to TV”, it states how for a lot of advertisers, most of their money is still spent on television ads. However, what these advertisers enjoy about the digital era is the speed and ability to optimize their placement and creative ideas.
