Google and Yahoo Announce Advertising Agreement

yahoo logoGoogle and Yahoo have officially confirmed that they had reached a non-excgoogle logolusive agreement that will allow Yahoo to use Google’s search and contextual advertising technology through its AdSense for Search and AdSense for Content advertising programs. Under the agreement, Yahoo! will have the option to display Google ads alongside its own natural search results in the U.S. and Canada.

In addition, Yahoo! will be able to serve contextually targeted ads on its U.S. and Canadian web properties as well as on its current publisher partner sites. Yahoo will still operate its own search engine, web properties and advertising services.

Official press releases from both companies can be found here (Google) and here (Yahoo).

What the deal means:

  • Consumers will see more relevant ads when they are looking for information and browsing the web. And with interoperability between IM services, users will have easier access to even more of their contacts.
  • Publishers currently in the Yahoo! Publisher Network will benefit from Google’s advertising technology, potentially increasing the revenue they earn from their sites.
  • Advertisers will have new ways to reach their target customers online more efficiently.
