– 19 million Australians consume digital content daily- Digital video consumption over 25 hours per month for adults
Sydney, Australia – 25 July 2017: IAB Australia and Nielsen have today switched on Digital Content Ratings (DCR), providing publishers, agencies and marketers with daily digital audience data for the first time. The milestone places Australia once again at the forefront of global digital measurement.
O Nielsen Digital Content Ratings fornece ao setor de mídia australiano uma visão diária de quantas pessoas consomem conteúdo em todos os principais dispositivos digitais e complementa a solução de medição de Digital Ratings (Mensal) existente da Nielsen.
O Digital Content Ratings combina os painéis de dispositivos digitais da Nielsen com medições baseadas em censos para fornecer aos compradores e proprietários de mídia um conjunto de dados independente e granular que oferece uma visão diária de como as pessoas se envolvem com conteúdo de texto, vídeo e áudio em todos os principais dispositivos digitais.
It also complements Nielsen’s existing Digital Ad Ratings measurement solution, ensuring consistency between the measurement of digital content and advertising performance – daily.
Digital Content Ratings is the third of three planned major upgrades to the digital audience measurement system in Australia. Stage one saw IAB Australia and Nielsen release the market’s first view of Australians’ mobile and tablet audience data, while stage two delivered Digital Ratings (Monthly), giving the Australian market its first view of their total audiences, unduplicated, across key digital devices. This third stage provides daily audience reach data, enables reporting of large and small sites and allows digital publishers to add back their off-platform audiences for a comprehensive daily view of their content reach.
IAB CEO, Vijay Solanki said, “The Australian digital industry – which now accounts for half of all advertising spend – has always been world leading in the area of digital measurement. DCR is a game changer for the industry because it is daily, people-based and independent. It’s good for publishers and gives more precision to advertisers. It also helps create more transparency and more confidence for digital.”
Nicole Sheffield, presidente do IAB Austrália e CDO da News Corp Austrália, disse: "As métricas de negociação diária permitirão que os editores e as agências se movimentem e tomem medidas durante as campanhas e respondam aos ciclos diários de briefing. Isso alinha o digital com outras mídias que relatam métricas de classificação diária. É importante ressaltar que o DCR também mede audiências "fora da plataforma", o que significa que, pela primeira vez, como editor, posso atribuir audiências que consomem conteúdo fora da plataforma ao meu número geral de audiência única. Nenhum outro sistema de medição de mídia permite que os profissionais de marketing contem as pessoas que consomem conteúdo em plataformas de terceiros e também atribuam as pessoas de volta ao criador do conteúdo."
Alex Smith, Nielsen’s Head of Digital Product, said “We set out to measure Australians and the way they engage with different content types across different devices. This has been a complex environment to measure but an incredible opportunity to deliver the first and only daily, independent, people-based digital measurement solution. We are delivering daily audience data for both big and small sites, including on and off platform which will see us support the diverse and vibrant publisher portfolio in Australia.”
Monique Perry, Head of Nielsen’s Media Industry Group said, “the roadmap to Digital Content Ratings was set out with the IAB in 2014, it was bold, ambitious and pioneering and while it took a little longer than we had planned, that’s because we have charted new territory, and it was critical to get right.
“Digital measurement is a team sport and Australia is truly a world-class team. The industry in this market is incredibly engaged and constantly scrutinising and challenging our digital audience measurement solution. This collaboration and team play is not found anywhere else, and the number of world firsts for Nielsen delivered out of the Australian market is unmatched and reflected by this industry collaboration and commitment. We have some of the best people in the world sitting here in this market. Every day our product and data science teams are innovating and building new technology solutions to best measure this complex and changing digital system. As a result, we now have a world-leading digital audience measurement solution, which the Australian industry should feel incredibly proud of,” explained Perry.
Quando perguntado sobre o que está por vir na medição digital, Solanki disse "mudança". "O digital é um ecossistema de conteúdo diversificado, incrivelmente complexo e em constante mudança. Os proprietários de conteúdo estão refinando suas estratégias, as pessoas estão mudando a maneira como consomem mídia digital e a tecnologia está em constante evolução; portanto, a medição de audiência digital também deve continuar evoluindo. E é exatamente isso que faremos", concluiu Solanki.
A Nielsen é a única e exclusiva fornecedora preferencial do Interactive Advertising Bureau (IAB) da Austrália para o fornecimento de serviços de medição de audiência digital na Austrália e sustenta a compra e venda de publicidade digital na Austrália.

Clive Dickens, Chief Digital Officer, Seven West Media”Digital Content Ratings responds to the constantly changing and increasingly complex online ecosystem.
