New entrant Spotify has been voted the best UK media owner by advertisers, taking over from Specific Media for the first time since 2008, according to the latest IPA Online Media Owner Survey.
The music streaming service came top of the list, with 83.5% of respondents agreeing/agreeing strongly that “My overall experience of dealing with this supplier is a good one.”
This is the first time in over three years that a new leader has emerged as has been top since autumn 2008. This is also the first time a new entrant to the survey has leapt straight to the top.
Specific Media slip to fourth place in the list with Tribal Fusion in second spot followed by AOL, Specific, Adjug, Glam Media and the Telegraph.
The most improved media owner since the autumn survey is Sky Digital Media which has risen 10.6%whilst at the other extreme IPC Media has fallen furthest, dropping 11.2%.
Nigel Gwilliam, Head of Digital, IPA, said: “The Spring 2012 survey is ringing in the changes with a new leader, a more competitive leading set and a number of resurgent online media owners.
“Spotify will rightly get the headlines but special mention should also go to other newcomers Adjug and Glam Media who are both in the top seven overall. It’s also great to see that Tribal Fusion and the Telegraph are both leading their fields; AOL are the most consistently improved performer; and that Microsoft and Sky have both turned around their performances.”
Other key findings:
• Tribal Fusion is the overall winner among ad networks, exchanges and sales houses, Spotify leads the online pure play sector with AOL in second place, and Telegraph.co.uk have taken over leadership from IPC in the cross-over media sector
• Sky Digital Media is the most improved media owner since the autumn survey (+10.6 percentage points), and a further five media owners have improved their score in the best overall category by 5 percentage points or more.
• At the other extreme IPC Media have seen their score decline by 11.2 percentage points since the autumn survey.
• Year-on-year Microsoft is the most improved, up 20.7 percentage points from their low point of 36% in the spring 2011 survey. Tribal Fusion has improved by 17.9 percentage points and AOL by 15.9.
• In addition to leading the overall survey attribute, Spotify leads in three other areas (quality of response to brief, understanding of own products, and delivery of innovative creative solutions).
• AOL leads in four areas (dispute resolution, ease of contact, client/media agency partnership and mid campaign support). Tribal Fusion leads in two areas (understanding of client objectives and post campaign support). Glam Media leads in one (communication of contact with client), as do Facebook (proactivity) and Specific Media (regular contact).
• Both IPC and The Guardian have seen declines of 10 percentage points or more in four survey areas, Channel4.com and Bauer in three areas and Yahoo! in two.
• In relation to the exploitation of cross-over media opportunities Channel4.com have seen their score decline by 18 percentage points year-on-year to below 30%
Says Pete Robins, IPA Digital Media Group Chairman and Managing Partner Agenda 21, “These are a very strong set of survey results from an increasingly competitive field. Full marks to Spotify for topping the survey on their first appearance, but what I am probably most pleased about is the general improvement in satisfaction levels. It can only be a good thing for agencies that the number of media owners achieving +70% scores for a good overall experience has risen from five to seven since the last survey in Autumn, 2011.”
The Survey is designed to highlight the levels of service media owners provide and outline where improvements can be made, with the aim of helping the growth of digital advertising, providing a voice for the industry and raising the digital standard in general.
The 2012 Media Owner Awards scheme officially launched this week. There will be 17 awards in total. Eight awards will be based on the findings from the current Survey, and a further nine awards will be submission-based.
The winners will receive their trophies in November in an awards ceremony and dinner. Deadline for entry is 8th June.

“Common Sense has died.” is wrong. Why wouldn’t there be any? You can’t express such opinion if you have no any serious knowledge on the matter. Sure there are PLENTY of reliable & trustworthy websites that pay for filling surveys, although it’s also true that the ratio of scam vs real deal is probably 9:1 or so. So you just gotta be careful but if you search long enough for them you will find working services of this type. Here’s (from my experience) what you should be looking for: – first, the payout minimum has to be low (below 10$ ), and it must be issued often, preferably at least once a week- payout should be through paypal or similiar because it’s instant so right away shows it’s likely that the website is reliable- you need to check “a lot of work”, because if the payout is for example 10$ , and you receive one survey every week worth 30cents then obviously it’s going to get A LOT of time, although it’s the best to register on as many good survey websites as you can There is more to know so i’d reccommend you search on google.Now reasons why you may not want to do surveys..- you are young. most (i would say 90%) of surveys are directed to people with income, that have preferances in brands (which one you use, and why etc), what kind of car insurance you got and other things that you didn’t try/do not own yet.So (getting to the point now) i’d reccommend you try other ways to make money online. One of new methods that quickly gain popularity is for example JSS Tripler. You can try it risk free, in fact they gonna give you initial money that you can start using in the system right away. It’s a long subject to explain but you can find out most of the information on this website,- 0% interest credit cards

Cash back similar to Costco Amex or PenFed Credit Union. Also, apply the cash to next motnhs bill. I loved when Shell Oil did that. It was only a few dollars per month but I did not have to wait up to one year or accumulate a minimum to take advantage of the program.
