Social image platform Imgur is giving brands another way to reach “the lost boys of the internet.” Their new promoted posts, which can include videos, will be inserted into the content streams of all “Imgurians”—87% of whom identify as “geek” and Millennial. According to the platform, promoted posts shouldn’t be targeted, but instead appear in Imgur’s “single content stream that everyone sees, providing a shared experience that gives [all users] something in common.” The ads got a positive response during testing with two-thirds of users giving them an upvote (or a “like”), and according to the site, engagement rates have reached up to 20% so far.
