A pioneer in social advertising products and technologies, SocialMedia.com is focused on creating a more personal, useful, and valuable type of advertising. The company partners with leading online publishers to bring the unique, vibrant voices of their communities to life through advertising. Since its founding in April 2007, SocialMedia.com has taken the lead in deploying social advertising technologies, including the industry’s first platform that enables publishers to create and sell social ads.
SocialMedia.com was founded on the principle of “people-powered advertising”— we believe that more effective and trusted ads are created by transforming real messages from real people into authentic sponsored content.
