Visible Measures Announces 2010 Super Bowl Ads Study Results, Doritos Most-Viewed Brand in Social Video
Complete ad ranking results immediately available in new performance benchmarking application
BOSTON, Feb. 17 /PRNewswire/ -- Visible Measures, the independent third-party measurement firm for Internet video publishers, advertisers, and viral marketers, today released the preliminary results of its 2010 Super Bowl Ads Study. The study measured the online video performance of the entire flight of the 2010 Super Bowl ads across more than 200 video-sharing destinations, compiling results based on Visible Measures' unique True Reach™ methodology. Complete results of the study are immediately available in Trends, the company's newly released online video performance benchmarking application (see corresponding press release).
"After the big game finished this year, audiences flocked to the Web to watch and re-watch their favorite ads," said Visible Measures founder and CEO Brian Shin. "The online video audience votes with its mouse, and our 2010 Super Bowl Ads Study is the most comprehensive and direct measure of audience interest in these advertisements. We're incredibly excited that advertisers and agencies will be able to compare the complete results from the game in our new Trends application."
The preliminary study results reflect social video viewing performance measured from Sunday, February 7, 2010 through Sunday, February 14, 2010 and includes data from both brand-driven and community-driven video placements. Highlights include:
- In aggregate, the 2010 Super Bowl ads have been viewed 90 million times in social video. The ads have spread nearly 3,000 total unique video placements across more than 30 video-sharing networks and have generated more than 60,000 comments and 90,000 ratings.
- Consumer packaged goods brand Doritos, which ran four user-produced ads during the 2010 Super Bowl broadcast, had the #1, #9, #10, and #15 most-viewed ads in social video. Taken together, these ads have been viewed over 16 million times – or 18% of all social video views in the study.
- Two of the more controversial campaigns attracted high commenting activity, with Audi's Green Police ad ranking second in terms of total comments while the much-debated Focus on the Family spot was fourth.
- Socially-driven video placements accounted for over 18 million views in total, over 20% of the study views.
The current top 20 Super Bowl 2010 ads, as ranked by aggregate social video viewing activity, are as follows:
