AdBrite Signs 20,000th Publisher

SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 13 /PRNewswire/ -- AdBrite, the Internet's Ad Marketplace, today announced that it signed its 20,000th web publisher, the taste-making music sharing site PureVolume.com. Launched only two years ago, and backed by Sequoia Capital, AdBrite has quickly grown into one of the world's largest ad networks with over 650 million page views per day.

AdBrite enables major brands such as Speedo, ESPN, Classmates.com and others to efficiently reach "the long tail" of web publishers through sites that deliver the specific demographics that the advertisers are seeking. AdBrite's 15-point site review checklist-along with its experienced sales professionals-help brands to pick and monitor their most strategic content partners. AdBrite is also recognized by major brands as having its finger on the pulse, as early supporters of sites like Gawker and pinkisthenewblog.com, bringing "street cred" to national brands.

"Each week, more than 1,000 active publishers join AdBrite," said Philip J. Kaplan, Chairman and Chief Product Officer of AdBrite. "AdBrite enables publishers of all sizes to maximize their online real estate, while still giving publishers complete control over the ads on their sites. Smaller publishers love AdBrite because it gives them access to major advertisers that they otherwise wouldn't be able to reach."

"AdBrite has been an excellent complement to our current ad sales efforts," said Brett Woitunski, Partner and CEO at Unborn Media, the parent company of PureVolume.com. "The ability for our community to buy an ad directly on our site through AdBrite's 'Your Ad Here' is very appealing. In addition, AdBrite's customizable ad code allowed us to integrate the ads with our site's look and feel."
