DUNEDIN, Today: Digital ad network Scroll Media has signed three more publisher groups to its expanding network, including South Island publishing giant Allied Press (Otago Daily Times and Ashburton Courier).

Bay of Plenty news site SunLive.co.nz has also joined the Scroll Media portfolio. Now advertisers can reach these regional audiences via programmatic channels and buy display, video and native advertising efficiently. 

Grey Lynn-based Scroll Media MD Jane Ormsby said the company plans to help drive revenue to these publishers by way of programmatic deals, native advertising and integration.

“We are delighted to have the regional newspapers come on board following the unfortunate closure of MediaWorks KPEX. We have added over 1 million extra unique users across the country programmatically to our network.
