By using the content and the structure of RSS (Really Simple Syndication) A syndication format that was developed by Netscape in 1999 and became very popular for aggregating updates to blogs and the news sites. RSS has also stood for "Rich Site Summary" and "RDF Site Summary. and Web feeds, FeedBurner gives advertisers unique new placements - such as continuous ads, ads that dynamically appear only on content posted within specific timeframes, ads associated with highly active content (e.g. blog blog, short for web log, an online, regularly updated journal or newsletter that is readily accessible to the general public by virtue of being posted on a website. posts with comments or those that have been emailed) and more. "Before FeedBurner, we had only considered running ads in the traditional ad zones on sites - at the top of the page, and on the left or right rail.

"FeedBurner's understanding of how consumers interact with content, and the underlying structure of the content on the page, has opened up a lot of opportunity to improve the way we communicate our message. We think this placement strategy on sites will be very effective." Unlike screen scraping Acquiring data displayed on screen by capturing the text manually with the copy command or via software. Web pages are constantly being screen scraped in order to save meaningful data for later use. for context or fixed ad positions required by many traditional ad providers, FeedBurner uses valuable context available only via the feed to determine the selection and positioning of an advertisement on a Web page. Feed-driven advertising on sites results in unique placement strategies that would be very difficult, if not impossible, for other ad networks. "FeedBurner's platform allows advertisers to develop an integrated program that reaches a publisher's entire audience, whether they are viewing content on the publisher's Web site, in a feed reader, or in email," said Brent Hill, Vice President of Business Development at FeedBurner. "This program creates new placements in the 'dialogue zone' of the page, driven by data in the feed associated with that same content. Publishers retain full control over the balance of content and advertising - the same approach we use for advertising in feeds is being used on the Web."
