Research · The Power of Contextual in the Attention Economy
At Seedtag, we partnered with attention-measurement expert, Lumen, to get an in-depth analysis of our contextual solution's attention performance, evaluating both noticeability and viewing time, while benchmarking our format attention score against main digital channels.
In an increasingly privacy-first world, brands are being pushed to figure out effective ways around new restrictions to bring meaningful content to users – that’s where contextual comes in.
Attention is extremely valuable, not only helping brands generate breakthroughs and engage with consumers, but it is also directly related to their sales figures. Simply put: more attention ultimately means more sales.
