Yahoo Native
Chose Yahoo Native
Yahoo Gemini! does stack up well against its competitors in the smaller spending realms. We've never been able to justify the ROI when we try to scale it up to even 10% - 15% of our spend. No, we've found that it's much better as a tangential win than a mainstream channel.
Chose Yahoo Native
Yahoo has a broader reach than LinkedIn in terms of category of intents. Yahoo also supercedes LinkedIn in terms of impression volume. LinkedIn is also a more expensive acquisition overall.
Chose Yahoo Native
Google is definitely the mammoth in this space, but it is nice to be able to be on multiple different search engines. People are using all different kinds of SEs to get their information.
It is also nice to push other campaigns straight into Yahoo! and not have as much legwork …
Chose Yahoo Native
Gemini had cheaper CPCS but would not convert as well as Bing or Google. It would be consistent but not as good.
Chose Yahoo Native
Yahoo is not as used as Google, but it is still a well-known search engine. It is still valuable to use Yahoo! Advertising.
Chose Yahoo Native
Yahoo Gemini is a more robust version of Outbrain and Taboola. It does offer mobile search, which they do not, and you have more control over your targeting, ad formats, and platform preference. Difficulty of campaign setup is pretty minimal on any Native platform, but Gemini …
Chose Yahoo Native
In terms of ROI, Bing ~ Gemini > Google. However, Google's massive amounts of traffic nullify ROI returns. In terms of traffic, Google > Bing > Gemini.
Chose Yahoo Native
I use all four of these platforms if they make sense for the advertising campaign which I am running. Yahoo Gemini has the advantage of having a very low cost per click and cost per impression, so it's especially ideal for an awareness campaign compared to Google, Bing, and …
Chose Yahoo Native
Gemini is comparable in objective and use to the other SEM platforms. Geminis audience is more limited and therefore should be used to complement other efforts on other platforms. We use Gemini to create a multi platform SEM campaign, to reach the largest possible audience and …
Chose Yahoo Native
Undoubtedly AdWords ranks higher overall. Yahoo Gemini is a distant second. Bing has been a disappointment but I have not given up on it.
Chose Yahoo Native
Both Taboola and Yahoo Gemini were used in the organization, but the general client relationship with Taboola was much stronger in the UK and allowed for more constant investment rather than being seen as an 'experimental channel' as Yahoo Gemini was.
Chose Yahoo Native
Yahoo! Advertising typically offers the third largest pool of audience for search, but offers a much stronger reach of audience in their display networks with a stronger product in Native. We don’t solely just use one product, but nearly 8/10 of recommendations made include …
Chose Yahoo Native
Overall, Yahoo! Advertising is a much lower traffic option, but also a lower cost option. If you are looking to drive big numbers & results, this platform is behind Google AdWords and Facebook Ads by a big gap.
Chose Yahoo Native
Yahoo Gemini is very similar to how the Bing Ads platform operates and functions, but I feel like the Yahoo Gemini platform is much more aesthetically pleasing and a little bit easier to manage. The colors and visual appearance of the dashboard seems to be more inviting than …

As I've alluded to before, Yahoo Gemini! is particularly well-suited for that extra bit of marketing spend and those last few needed leads and MQLs to get you over the hump. We definitely find that the ROI is well worth it, but it's also not the type of channel that we're gonna drop half of our budget on. The scalability is limited to an extent.

  • Similar interfaces compared to Bing and Google -- if you've operated one, you can operate any of the three.
  • Proactive Customer Support -- Yahoo was diligent about having contact with us about the platform.
  • Limited but strong ROI -- Gemini spent maybe a 10th of our Bing and Google budgets, but always performed well in terms of ROI.

Cons
  • Can be a little slow at times when updating screens and moving to different accounts
  • Allow more users and accounts
  • Recommendations panel could be easier to see by account

  • More robust and sophisticated reporting capacity: front end metrics are available with different granularities, but lacking in insight to guide optimization strategy
  • No display/programmatic buying options as yet.
  • Audience targeting could be improved and audience / lookalike modeling could be improved. That said, geotargeting capabilities are very good.

Usability
Very usable platform, easy to get set-up, used and integrated with your tools

One of my main pain points with yahoo gemini is that the product is very difficult to use and the UI seems like they took a skeleton of a similar product and made it bare bones functional for the purpose of generating ad spend. It is a huge barrier for new customers and I feel one of the main reasons they have new customers at all is all the free trial dollars they offer.

Support Rating
Adzooma has a solid team but their team works in UK time zone so it's hard to get in touch with them. Usually, they are helpful but sometimes they're not. They won't know what problems you have and might ignore you on that. Their support has been decent in updating and fixing bugs at a good rate.
Read full review
They were always super helpful during training and demoing and would answer any questions we had. We didn't have a direct account manager, which would have been nice, but I just don't think their size accommodates for that type of set up. They are very knowledgeable and help guide you through a set up for each particular client.

Yahoo Gemini is a more robust version of Outbrain and Taboola. It does offer mobile search, which they do not, and you have more control over your targeting, ad formats, and platform preference. Difficulty of campaign setup is pretty minimal on any Native platform, but Gemini does seem to have the least strict approval process, which is nice with both Facebook and Twitter making it difficult to target and run ads for certain products/topics.
