Abstract
Summary
The world of advertising has joined the digital revolution. Recent examples of
the success of sponsored links, the development of click-to-call, video
advertising and local ads on mobile, along with the swift rise in the sums
being earmarked for online advertising are a clear indication that the
announced changes are beginning to have an impact.
Recent experiments with music financed by advertising, telcos' investments in
ad-based financing, product placement initiatives and in-game ads are all
examples of the evolving landscape that are bound to enact deep-seated changes
for both traditional media, which have long been financed by advertising, and
for new telecom and internet industry players which are now incorporating
advertising as a new source of long-term financing.
Based on an in-depth examination of the latest changes at work in the field of
advertising, IDATE delivers an analysis of the assets of new advertising
platforms, namely Web 2.0 and mobile, and of traditional media' s capacity to
adapt and react to the changes. This report provides a detailed look at the
new forms of advertising and efficiency measurement tools. It also supplies
market share growth forecasts for the different platforms up to 2012.
