Adrants Overview

Adrants first launched in 2001 as a no-holds-barred advertising blog, known for its sharp commentary, trend-spotting, and unapologetic approach to the inner workings of the ad industry. In its heyday, Adrants reached over one million monthly visitors, offering a front-row seat to emerging marketing tactics, viral “buzz” campaigns, and the shifting tides of old paradigms in media.
While we no longer cover breaking news every day, Adrants continues to host industry contributions, brand insights, and expert commentary—all aimed at helping marketers and business leaders navigate today’s ever-changing advertising landscape. With 12,000 page views and 7,500 new users monthly, we remain a platform for those who value thoughtful, experience-based takes on advertising and media.

Now part of the Brown Brothers Media family, Adrants benefits from a larger network of digital expertise. We’re proud to uphold our legacy of honest, informed coverage—albeit with less snark than before—and to continue curating content that resonates with an audience hungry for useful and forward-thinking marketing insights.
If you’ve got something interesting to say about the ad world—be it an emerging trend, an unexpected success story, or a hard-earned lesson—we invite you to share it with us. Let’s keep the conversation going, just as Adrants has done for more than two decades.
