Fox to offer MySpace slots to Super Bowl advertisers
News Corp.'s Fox Sports and MySpace are teaming up to give Super Bowl television advertisers a larger online presence during the game.
In the run up to the Fox network's “upfront” market, where around $9 billion in advertising will be secured for next February’s Super Bowl, the news network has announced that advertisers will get increased web components.
It’s a move that the WSJ says “marks the biggest move yet by a network to try to leverage its Internet ties to buyers who are increasingly demanding a web component in their marketing plans”.
With the price of a 30-second slot rising $100,000 to $2.7 million, it’s not surprising that advertisers are demanding more exposure. The WSJ reports that advertisers will be able to append additional calls to action, for instance links and coupons, to their ads.
A comScore survey of 1,000 viewers of this year’s Super Bowl revealed that 7 percent went online during the game purely to view the ads, reported the WSJ.
