solutions arm will be branded as Integrid Digital Solutions (IDS). Like a digital agency, it will offer internet marketing solutions, including search and display advertising. Fifteen advertisers, such as Kotak Securities, Max New York Life Insurance and PolicyBazaar.com, already use internet marketing solutions offered by the company.

The company has also diversified into mobile marketing in order to grow its digital business. It has started offering SMS, voice and mobile internet advertising solutions and has also roped in a few clients for these.

Integrid Media which represents the three ad networks namely Oridian, Ad Dynamix and MediosOne, owned by Ybrant Digital, a Hyderabad based company, will be clubbed together under the MaXXper brand. Oridian is aimed at non-US markets, while Ad Dynamix is targeted at US-based publishers and advertisers.

Singh says, “We are planning to increase the number of publishers from India. Of the 2,000 publishers that these ad networks have across the world, 70-80 are Indian publishers.”

The three ad networks serve about 750 million ad impressions per month in India.

Under its content business, the company currently operates an education-related website, YQWorld.com. It plans to launch four to five new portals, including a finance site, a news portal, an e-commerce site and a social networking website, in the next six months. All its portals will be pooled under a vertical named Integrid Destinations.
