Now that's a good way to advertise - budget.com

So I was checking to rent a convertible in Miami for next week on various sites, including budget. I guess they gave me a cookie with my search history. Now almost anywhere I go I get budget.com ads like this:



When I click the ad I gat really good deal on convertible, much better then what I got when checking in the morning.

Now that is one smart way of advertising and of course I'll sign up for that great offer!!

Added: seems they are using dotomi.com to advertise. Never heard of them before. And of course, going to dotomi.com there was the budget ad again

 

i think it's time to clear out your cache!

 

maybe, but this actually helped to get me a great price on that convertible

 

I'm sorry...what do you mean?

It pops up on your monitor now and then???

 

no, sites using dotomi.com advertising network (and it seems to be a lot of them) serve me thoose ads. Similar to adsense, but more targeted I guess

 

Its a simple "color" cookie that was planted on your PC, when you entered "Budget" site you got a cookie from the advertising network. Now, when ever you enter a website that works with this specific network they know that your looking for a car to hire. as simple as that...
