Abstract
Systems and methods are disclosed for conducting media lift studies for online advertising concurrently with operating an advertising campaign. While operating an advertising campaign for a first advertiser/client focused primarily on a set of intended ads and a specific targeted viewer audience, a non-intended ad is occasionally substituted to run in an ad slot, and is tracked as belonging to the first advertiser/client. The non-intended ad can be for example one of: an ad for a second advertiser/client; an alternate ad for the first advertiser/client; or a blank/unrelated ad. After the campaign, attribution results for the intended ads are adjusted according to those for non-intended ads to provide an indication of net media lift resulting from the intended ads—typically at no additional cost to the first advertiser/client. Analysis results may also be compared between different attribution data providers to determine which provide the more accurate attribution data.
