Inuvo Announces Launch of Native Advertising Solution "SearchLinks(R)"


CONWAY, AR--(Marketwired - Jul 28, 2015) - Inuvo, Inc. (NYSE MKT: INUV), an advertising technology and digital publishing company, today announced the launch of "SearchLinks®", a suite of native style ad units for mobile and desktop publishers. SearchLinks (www.searchlinks.com) enables publishers to tap into the enormous search based budgets of advertisers thus providing them with an alternative for monetizing web and app content.

Designed to operate responsively on desktop and mobile devices, SearchLinks matches publisher content with highly targeted native style ad units. It links the content with the highest payouts in online advertising, search based pay per click ads. SearchLinks is a collection of Inuvo proprietary technologies that include ad targeting, ad delivery, ad optimization, content analysis and reporting. This platform allows publishers to see the performance of their SearchLinks ad-units in real-time.

"We have been developing and testing SearchLinks over the last three quarters, having first deployed it on our ALOT web sites then on a select few partners who participated in the beta program," commented Jeremy Chrysler, Inuvo's Vice President. "We have been extremely pleased with the performance of and the revenue generated from SearchLinks during our beta test since the fourth quarter of 2014. Publishers can expect to see quality images with ad copy that does not undermine the publishers' message or brand while also delivering strong per page impression revenue. We expect SearchLinks to be a solid contributor to Inuvo's revenue growth."

With this product, Inuvo should be well positioned to capture a share of the rapidly growing Native advertising marketplace. BI Intelligence expects spending on native ads will reach $7.9 billion this year and grow to $21 billion in 2018. Additionally, according to IPG media lab, native ads are viewed for the same amount of time as editorial content and are more likely to be shared or go viral than traditional banner advertisements. Management will further discuss the SearchLinks launch at its 2015 Second Quarter Conference Call on Wednesday, July 29th at 4:15 pm (EDT). The Conference Call can be accessed at:
