Right Media Exchange Revenue Grows 81% in Six Months

Right Media (www.rightmedia.com), creator of the Right Media Exchange, today announced that Exchange revenue has increased 81% over the past six months, with 566 billion ad impressions traded during the period.

The milestone represents only a partial measure of Right Media’s broad, substantial growth since it formally launched the Right Media Exchange last summer. In that period, the company has also seen a 50% increase in headcount, a 49% increase in Exchange membership and an 84% increase in impressions served. Over one trillion impressions have been served on the Exchange since the company launched its auction platform in April of 2005.

“All signs point to the fact that the digital advertising market is embracing the exchange model,” said Right Media CEO Michael Walrath. “Buyers and sellers on the Right Media Exchange are getting a fair opportunity to develop new relationships, increase scale and drive more value, and they’re clearly taking advantage of it.”

There are currently 127 network, advertiser and publisher members with seats on the Exchange, including Yahoo!, Fox Interactive Media and LookSmart. Exchange members represent over 6,000 buyers and 13,000 sellers. More than 175,000 creatives are currently active in the Exchange.
