Publishers: Tag Your Digital Content to Ensure Inclusion in MMX® Multi-PlatformAs part of Comscore's commitment to a global rollout, this version of the product has been developed based on Comscore's innovative census based methodology that enables in-market mobile measurement without the need of a traditional mobile panel, using census-only methodologies. The output delivers person-centric measurement for tagged entities. It is therefore crucial for publishers with a need to understand or monetize their mobile audiences to help this measurement work harder for their market by tagging all pages and apps. Only tagged entities will feature in rankings.
