What Is the 10 Million Recipes Segment?

The 10 Million Recipes Segment is Gourmet Ads’ full recipe library packaged as a single targetable audience. Every recipe across our curated network of food blogs, recipe websites, and lifestyle and news publishers is indexed, categorized and available in one buy. Your campaign runs alongside recipe content wherever home cooks are reading it.

Why Advertise Alongside Recipes?

Recipe content isn’t passive media. A recipe’s ingredient list is close to a literal shopping list, which makes recipe pages one of the strongest signals of upcoming grocery purchases you can buy against. Readers are engaged, they aren’t skimming, and they’re open to discovering new products while they plan what to cook. That makes recipe pages a natural fit for:

  • new product launches
  • seasonal campaigns
  • driving trial for food, beverage and grocery brands

Who You’ll Reach

The core recipe audience is women aged 25 to 55: the primary cook and household decision maker, and the person most likely to be in the grocery aisle soon after reading. These consumers decide what the household eats, which brands go in the cart and how the grocery budget is spent.

A Brand-Safe Environment

Recipe content is positive, practical and aspirational by nature. There are no news-cycle surprises and no controversial adjacencies, so your brand appears next to something people want to cook. That makes recipe advertising one of the cleanest environments available at scale in digital media.
