Beefing up audience measurement tools and revealing Indonesians' mobile habits

This development follows comScore’s appointment as online audience measurement partner for Indonesia's advertising trade bodies.

“We are committed to bringing robust solutions to Indonesia, and are delighted to announce the introduction of mobile panel data which will enable more granular insights into audiences and their content consumption across smartphones and tablets,” said Joe Nguyen, senior vice president, Asia Pacific at comScore.

“Audience measurement in today’s evolving mobile and multi-platform environment is challenging. The industry needs trusted, unduplicated measurement that accurately captures how consumers are engaging with content across devices and platforms, especially mobile as it plays an increasingly important role in our lives,” said Jerry Justianto, chairman of IDMC.

The total digital population in Indonesia hit 63.6m unique visitors in January 2017, with 14.8% accessing the internet from both desktop (age 6 onwards) and mobile platforms (age 18 onwards) according to comScore, with 51.7m accessing via mobile devices.
