LOCALiQ, the expert marketing team here at the Denbighshire Free Press and the wider Newsquest group, has announced a first of its kind digital advertising technology designed to help get your business noticed online.

The UK’s leading digital marketing solutions provider revealed the cross media optimisation technology will use data-driven algorithms to adjust digital market budgets across major platforms including Google, Microsoft, Facebook and Instagram.

Using proprietary tracking, attribution, and optimisation algorithms, the technology shifts marketing budgets across search, social, and publishers to maximize every pound spent and yield the best possible outcome for digital advertisers.

The new technology will automatically allocate advertising budgets to platforms that will bring out the best results meaning business owners and marketing managers will save countless hours analysing conversion metrics across digital ad platforms.

LOCALiQ ‘incredibly excited’ to introduce ‘completely new’ product

Cross media optimisation combined with LOCALiQ’s Client Centre reporting platform provides powerful data insights to help advertisers more accurately understand which activity is generating the best return.   

Managing Director, Nick Ashwood described the new technology as a “huge step forward” in the digital marketing landscape.

He said: “We’re proud to offer our clients access to cutting-edge marketing technology, and cross media optimisation is another huge step forward.

“This product is completely new in the digital landscape, and we’re incredibly excited about the results it is generating for our clients in terms of efficiency and performance.”

 Speaking of how the coronavirus pandemic has affected consumer attitudes online he added: “Over the last eighteen months the pandemic has continuously shifted how people consume online media.

“Cross media optimisation is agile enough to adjust budgets and spend where the results are going to be delivered.”
