Super Bowl 2010 Ads Will Have GoDaddy Again

Topic: Super Bowl 2009

Super Bowl 2010 is still a couple of months away, but controversal Super Bowl Advertiser GoDaddy already announced that they will be back. At the Super Bow 2010 their ads ranked #1 on the TiVo Super Bowl Ads ranking. The economic situation we are living in is no reason for GoDaddy to drop out of Super Bowl. And why should they? Their ads worked on TV and on the Internet extremely well over the last couple of years.
It is pretty sure that Danica Patrick will again be featured in the GoDaddy Super Bowl 2010 ads. Read more

Super Bowl 2010 will be the first to be broadcasted only in Digital

Topic: Super Bowl 2009

Super Bowl XLIV will be held in Florida a record breaking 10th time. The new very 3D logo of Super Bowl 2010 has already been presented. As you remember Super Bowl 2009 was heavy on the 3D stuff in the commercials, not sure if the logo designers got the inspiration from that.

A big change for the next Super Bowl will be the shift to an all digital telecast as the U.S. digital transition just took place on June 12th. Read more

3D Chuck Episode Powered by 3ality

Topic: Super Bowl 2009

3ailty announced that it was the power behind the rather disappointing 3D episode of Chuck earlier this week. The episode was intended to build on the momentum from the Super Bowl the night before and give watchers something to do with those 3D glasses they had for the Super Bowl.

The big problem was that most watchers weren't able to find the 3D glasses and were left with an irritatingly fuzzy image with lots of green fringe around items in the show. I was one of the many who didn’t find glasses locally and very nearly stopped watching the show. Read more

Super Bowl 2009 was the most watched Sporting Event on TV

Topic: Super Bowl 2009

Nielsen Media Research updated the audience numbers for Super Bowl XLIII and now it is official that the Super Bowl 2009 was the most watched sporting event in TV history according to The Variety.
An estimated 98.73 million had watched the Super Bowl and the Super Bowl ads. Of course not all of them sat through the whole game. Still lots of them watched the number #1 Super Bowl 2009 Ad according to TiVo: Go Daddy's Enhanced?.

The Super Bowl 2009 has about 1 million more viewers than the Super Bowl 2008. With an audience close to 100 million it is clear that the Super Bowl ads have been a bargain at $3m. It is even more a bargain if you, like Doritos, get a Super Bowl Ad made by amateurs on the #1 spot according to the USA Today Ad Meter. Read more

If you go by the USA Today Ad Meter Super Bowl Ranking than Vizio had the worst Super Bowl 2009 Commercial.

Go Daddy Super Bowl 2009 Ads beat Records

Topic: Super Bowl 2009

The Go Daddy Super Bowl 2009 Ads were fun, but not over the top and also not that sexy. Still GoDaddy reports that they reached another online order record. Total orders to Go Daddy were up over last year’s Super Bowl record, coming in at 110% of the 2008 results. Update: TiVo Super Bowl 2009 Statistics ranks GoDaddy Enhanced Ad as Number One.
Last year GoDaddy released the number of hits to their site. They got an impressive 2 million hits for the whole Sunday, because viewers wanted to see Danica Patrick’s Beaver.
I guess they did not break this record with their Super Bowl 2009 ads, but they did a better job converting the traffic into orders. Read more
