Snickers and Budweiser Most Successful At Driving Internet Traffic on Day Following Super Bowl XLI.

iFilm and AOL Sports Surge in Post Game Ad-Viewing Activity

NEW YORK -- Hitwise, the world's leading online competitive intelligence service, announced that the Super Bowl XLI advertiser websites with the largest increases in market share of visits on the Monday following the game (February 5, 2007) were Snickers.com, up 1478 percent versus the previous Monday, and BudLight.com, up 656 percent versus the previous Monday (January 29, 2007). Anheuser-Busch's other Budweiser-branded sites, Budweiser.com and Bud.tv, also more than doubled in market share of visits in the same period. Other top moving advertiser websites in that period were Revlon.com, up 165 percent, and SalesGenie.com, up 156 percent.

Internet-based only businesses have long experimented with Super Bowl advertising to varying degrees of success. In 2007, Salesgenie.com and GoDaddy.com were the dot-com advertisers that showed the largest increases in market share of visits on February 5, 2007 versus January 29, 2007, at 156 percent and 75 percent respectively.

Americans also went online to watch the ads, as increased traffic levels were seen on the Monday following the game at websites that hosted the Super Bowl commercials. While the market share of visits to YouTube was only up 12 percent on February 5, 2007 versus January 29, 2007, it was the 12th most visited Internet domain in the US overall. iFilm and AOL Sports showed market share increases of 328 percent and 158 percent respectively for the same period.

"Ads that create buzz and are worthy of multiple viewings will drive more value into the Super Bowl advertising investment," said LeeAnn Prescott, research director at Hitwise. "Food and Beverage manufacturers are embracing the web to a greater degree and should fully integrate Internet marketing into offline advertising efforts in order to maximize value."
