Audience and Internet Marketing Measurement Technologies
High-quality, patented panel- and census-based technologies enable Nielsen to deliver accurate audience and Internet measurement metrics. By leveraging a range of Web technologies that include tagging, probing and ad collection, we can gather and analyze large volumes of data, as well as conduct surveys to provide a high-quality, accurate representation of audience and consumer behavior.
Panel recruitment is conducted using a proprietary methodology that combines the representativeness of a Random Digit Dial (RDD) panel with the depth provided by an online-recruited panel. The RDD “core” of this methodology provides a baseline for representative demography and online behavior. This baseline is used to create demographic and behavioral weights for the online-recruited panel. Our patented user-prompting ensures we have the best demographic data upon which to base our weights.
