What it does

Now more than ever, social networks are popular on the internet. Cubics.com serves as the link between advertisers and the people who are using these social networking tools. The company displays over 8 billion ads on the most popular social networking sites, such as Facebook, MySpace, Hi5, Bebo, and Friendster. The volume of ads the company handles makes it possible for advertisers from all areas of business to reach their target audience. Advertisers can go on to buy targeted ads on the social networks of their choosing, much like advertisers buy air time for today’s television commercials. The owners of the social networking sites or publishers, as the site likes to call them, can make money from these ads too. This makes placing ads on social sites a win-win situation for both of the involved parties. Once you become a costumer of the site, you will be able to take care of your traffic and revenue stats through the website, without needing to download and extra software.

In their own words

“Cubics was the first advertising network designed specifically for social networks. Our first product was specifically designed for the Facebook API immediately upon its release. We have continued to improve our offerings and now support all major social networks including Facebook, MySpace, Friendster, Bebo and more.”

Why it might be a killer

Social networking sites are the ones that are currently growing the fastest. Placing ads on them is going to be lucrative for any growing company. Cubics opens the door for advertisers to step into this yet mostly-untapped source of revenue.

Some questions

Are people using social networking sites going to appreciate the ads? Are they even thinking of purchasing items or services while they use this type of distraction?
