San Francisco (February 11, 2011) – Skai (www.skai.io), a global leader in search marketing and online advertising technology, today announced the completion of successful integration with retargeting in the Skai Enterprise platform. Retargeting is the most recent channel beyond search that Skai has incorporated into its digital marketing software so that customers can view data from multiple marketing programs in a single dashboard and take action to optimize campaigns.
“Skai was built from day one to an open integration standard,” said Nir Cohen, Co-Founder and Chief Technology Officer at Skai. “By creating a flexible platform, we can bring in emerging media channels and help our customers better manage budgets and drive results.”
To date, Skai has successfully supported the following channels on a global basis through automated data transfers and API protocols: retargeting, search engine optimization (SEO), social networks, display ad networks, affiliate networks, and niche content publishers. Marketers can port data from these campaigns into the Skai Enterprise platform to de-duplicate conversions, view full path-to-conversion data and set attribution weights to meet their unique business criteria.
“I’ve been very impressed with Skai’s ability to seamlessly tie in other channels,” said Dillon Smith, eMarketing and Social Media Manager at Golfsmith International. “With the successful integration of retargeting, I can now view my campaign side-by-side with search. This will help me make better decisions and improve ROI.”
