PetMD’s main consumers are pet-passionate, affluent females, aged 35 to 64. Dubbed the “mega niche,” this group is highly sought for their significant influence in the U.S. consumer purchasing sector.
PetMD’s audience is also dubbed “cyber-chondriacs” - educated, Internet savvy consumers who absorb trillions of page views every month in health-related content for themselves, friends, family and pets.
“With PetMD, advertisers and brands have a platform where they can reach and engage users in a meaningful way, by relating to their passion for animals, even if their brand has nothing to do with pets,” said Nicolas Chereque, VP of Sales and Business Development for PetMD. “We know our users might be losing sleep because their dog is hogging the bed or they have allergies because of their cats. We help brands say to their customers, ‘We understand your love for pets and your conditions.’”
“We started off with a different set of questions. What can we do with the Internet and technology to serve the animal health industry? This passion is resonating with our users and we are excited about seeing it connect for our partners and advertisers,” said Wanita Burnett, VP of Strategy for PetMD.
