Madrid, October 25th, 2023: ShowHeroes, a global leader in digital video content, technology and advertising solutions, embarked on a long-term partnership with Bainet with a strong focus on video content as a means to boost performance KPIs and monetization efforts.

Founded in 1992, Bainet is a prominent Spanish media group with Hogarmania.com as its flagship site. Hogarmania ranks in the TOP5 in Spain’s Lifestyle category, boasting 50 million annual users. Established in 2009, it focuses on home-related content, with the “Cocina Abierta” section ranking TOP2 in Spain for gastronomy and being the official page of Karlos and Eva Arguiñano.

 

ShowHeroes, who are dedicated to promoting local journalism and diversity in the global media landscape, provides the publisher with access to editorial video content and exclusive demand sources, in addition to a comprehensive tech stack including a video player, ad server, and semantic technology. The partnership with ShowHeroes enables Bainet to further enrich its own high-quality content offering and optimize monetization.

 

Within the first six months of the partnership, the integration of the ShowHeroes unit was launched on a total of three publications of Bainet: Hogarmania.com, www.mascotasmania.es and Cocinatis.com. Created in 2019, Cocinatis is dedicated exclusively to gastronomy. It offers practical content, step-by-step guides, recipes, and nutritional information supported by nutritionists. In four years, it has grown to over 3 million users annually, with a positive 2023 outlook.

“We are more than happy to work with Bainet and strengthen our foothold in the Spanish market, specifically in the lifestyle and food segment of our diverse publisher network. Thanks to our extensive library and in-house production capabilities for exclusive premium video content we act as a co-publisher to the well-known sites Hogarmania and Cocinatis. Users experience privacy-compliant content and ads that contextually match the editorial environment they’re viewing.”

A major milestone was reached when the number of ad impressions crossed the 1M mark already during the 4th month of the implementation. When comparing the first quarter of the partnership with the second quarter an increase in video impressions by 3.400% and an increase in publisher revenue by 7.100% was reported.
