Ybrant Digital Launches Facebook ‘Quality Control Center’ on AppNexus

Ybrant Digital, a global digital marketing company, has unveiled the Facebook Quality Control Center (QCC),  a new technology solution for complying with Facebook’s latest regulations for advertising on apps.


 


 


The QCC was built on AppNexus, the real-time ad platform for ad networks, demand-side platforms and other online advertising companies, and is designed to protect the user experience and ensure that only the most relevant and acceptable ads are shown to visitors. Ybrant’s QCC is an attractive offering for publishers interested in quality display inventory running on their Facebook Applications creative. It offers a ‘plug & play’ solution for Facebook Application publishers, which allows them to instantly adapt advertisements to Facebook’s new parameters.


 


Facebook’s new quality control regulations for application advertising were published in December 2010, and outlined the terms for serving display ads on Facebook applications. Under the new requirements, users are allowed to remove ads and provide feedback on the reasons for doing so. As some of the largest apps rely on ad networks for a steady and large-volume feed of ads, innovative solutions by networks to help meet these guidelines was critical.


 


 


“Facebook has designed its entire advertising system around the principles of authenticity and quality that advertisers must share in order to be shown on Facebook’s Social Ads”,  said Jacob Nizri, president of Ybrant Digital. 


 


 


Using technology available through the AppNexus platform, Ybrant Digital now overlays an ‘X’ in the upper right of each creative that will provide a Facebook user the opportunity to close the ad and flag it. The user is then prompted to respond to a short, voluntary survey asking if they found the ad irrelevant”,   offensive”, “misleading”,   repetitive” or other”.  This valuable consumer data is then emailed to Facebook and Ybrant Digital’s QCC and ultimately shared with the advertisers for valuable feedback that can immediately improve future ads.


 


 


Our goal at AppNexus is to build a flexible and extensible advertising platform that allows companies like Ybrant Digital, and its important partners like Facebook, to rapidly adjust to changes in the advertising marketplace”,  said Brian O’Kelley, CEO, AppNexus.
