Why Spytrend shows 8,661 ads where other libraries show fewer

What explains Bustle's ad numbers? These are the measured differences in its ads.

  • We count every ad that leads to the sites, including ads run from partner pages (10 Facebook pages in total), not only the ads of one official page.
  • We count subdomains too: bustle.com and its subdomains are one company.
  • We count each ad once, by its launch date, and we keep an ad that launched before March 2026 if it still ran then.

Limits

  • Spytrend collects ads since March 2026. An older ad is in the data only when it still ran then, so a first ad date can be earlier.
  • The number of ads we collect changes from month to month, which is why changes are compared with similar companies.
  • The page counts ads. It does not show ad spend or impressions.
  • An ad Spytrend did not see is not proof that the company did not advertise.

Headings, short summaries and the takeaways are written by an AI model from these numbers and checked by rules. Every figure comes from Spytrend data, and message names are an AI reading of the ad texts. Report a mistake.
