Deep dives
Challenges in Defining Attention
Defining attention poses challenges due to differing opinions, especially in relation to its impact on publishers. The task force created on this topic aims to address potential abuse of attention metrics.
Efforts Towards Standardization
The IAB, in collaboration with the Media Rating Council, works on establishing guidelines for attention measurement. Through task forces involving various industry stakeholders, efforts are made to set standards and ensure transparency in data signals and metrics.
Future of Attention Measurement
The future trajectory of attention measurement involves making it a currency for optimizing campaigns. While transparency is valued, data privacy regulations may impact data signals availability. Buyers are advised to work closely with publishers, support standardization, and leverage attention as an optimization tool rather than a primary KPI.
