CASE STUDY

CDM powers a 13% increase in pages per session on CNN Brasil

CNN BR case study

CNN Brasil is a premier multi-platform operation, delivering 24-hour news coverage to millions of Brazilians.

The challenge

Despite its strong market presence, CNN Brasil faced a ceiling in its digital engagement. After experimenting with various external and internal content recommendation solutions, they found that existing tools could not meet their needs for reader recirculation and revenue growth.

The approach

CNN Brasil adopted Google’s CDM (Content Discovery & Monetization) to harness the power of advanced recommendation algorithms. Through close collaboration, the teams designed a unit that integrated seamlessly with CNN’s editorial layout, preserving the user experience while improving performance.

The result

  • +13%
    Pages per Session

We chose Google because we believe they are the experts in content recommendation. The close collaboration allowed us to perfectly adapt the format to our layout, driving a 13% increase in pages per session and contributing to boost our RPM.
