5 5 Yahoo! Proprietary and Confidential. ©2006 All Rights Reserved Study Methodology Dissecting Online Behavior By Level Of Ad Exposure Those exposed to the advertising are matched to a control group that are demographically and behaviorally similar with the exception of advertising exposure. By examining the lifts between our control and exposed groups, we isolate the effectiveness of the advertising in driving activity that wouldn’t have otherwise occurred. 6 * Test is internet wide and not limited to Yahoo Search & Display Advertising Search Advertising OnlyDisplay Advertising Only Exposed Unexposed

6 6 Yahoo! Proprietary and Confidential. ©2006 All Rights Reserved What is a lift? A lift measures the effectiveness of the advertising in getting someone to “do something”. We isolate the effectiveness of the advertising by comparing the activity of those who saw the advertising vs. a control group who didn’t see the advertising but are otherwise behaviorally and demographically identical. Are Lifts Comparable? While lifts will indicate which advertising is most effective (and which audience you should look to maximize) – lifts in-and-of-themselves are not directly comparable due to the reach of each form of advertising. Small lifts among a large target are often equivalent to large lifts among a small target. Study Methodology
