Advertisers will have access to the Yahoo! websites including Yahoo! Search, Yahoo! Mail and Flickr, mobile operators 3 Group, T-Mobile, O2, Orange and Vodafone and search publishing partners Loot, broadcaster Five and FT.com.

Display publishing partners, including Eurosport, Bebo and BT, and inventory from over 100 other websites are also included in the network.
