Advertising.com Group keeping AOL ‘stable,’ acquires Silicon Valley-based Buysight Inc.,

The Advertising.com Group, the Tide Point-based advertising arm of AOL, has acquired Silicon Valley-based Buysight Inc.
Buysight Inc. “specializes in targeted advertising tailored to consumer interests,” according to the Baltimore Business Journal.

During the third quarter, AOL reported $340 million in advertising revenue — a 7 percent increase over last year’s third-quarter advertising revenue. Although AOL lost money from subscriptions this time around, it managed to keep its total revenue on par with last year’s third quarter earnings at $531.7 million. [more]
