ABS-CBN is the nation’s most-watched TV network in July 2013

ABS-CBN remained on top of the television ratings in July with more Filipinos tuning in to its programs with a total day audience share of 42%, eight points higher than rival GMA with only 34%, based on data from Kantar Media that cover urban and rural homes.

1. ABS-CBN - 42.0%
2. GMA-7 - 34.0%
3. TV5 - 10.0%

Kantar Media uses a nationwide panel size of 2,609 urban and rural homes that represent 100% of the total Philippine TV viewing population, while the other ratings data supplier AGB Nielsen reportedly has only 1,980 homes based solely in urban areas that represent only 57% of the Philippine TV viewing population.

ABS-CBN also kept its stronghold of the primetime block (6PM-12MN) despite GMA’s new offerings, with a recorded audience share of 47%, higher by 14 points than GMA’s 33%. Primetime is the most important timeblock when most Filipinos watch TV and advertisers put a larger chunk of their investment in to reach more consumers efficiently.
