I agree with the question you posed ” where are the advertisers? ”
Very limited indeed. Let’s hope we see more advertisers entering the market.

more than internet penetration the effectiveness of online advertisement for an SME depends on capability / constraint of converting an intent of purchase in to a sale . Credit card /Mobile Payment /PayPal are the enabler .
untill these things take root here in india .its kinda difficult to see how this will be a channel of choice for adv for SME .

Ashish again all the answers for your questions boils down to the internet penetration in india

if it increases like mobile sme ppl will see value for CPM ads… someone should just walk up to trai hq and slap a few execs and make them bring some bold moves to stop cartel pricing among the big telecoms and make the broadband plans sensible…

and India is one of the top ranking click fraud countries and its difficult to track click fraud for CPC based ads…

am sleepy if comment is not sensible pardon me

Dear Ashish,

In the absence of any third party validation services in India for ad network inventory, it is near-impossible to know which ad network has more or less inventory. We believe we are the largest, with good reason — primarily based on the feedback we get from advertisers about the volumes we drive for them — but then, I’m sure every ad network says the same thing.

I assure you and your readers that the value of this partnership for us isn’t in getting more inventory. We have quite a bit and we are accelerating the growth of this inventory, with or without eBay.

Online advertising is not core to eBay’s business, which is one reason they were interested in offloading it. Where we fit in is that Komli is probably the only Indian player, via the technology products it is developing, to be able to leverage eBay’s inventory and audience for more than what the traditional pricing model of banner ad sales can offer.

Regards,

Akshay
