This all sounds well and good, but the road ahead will be paved with some potholes. One of the biggest is the growth in ad avoidance technology. About 20% of smartphone users now block ads on their mobile Web browsers, a 90% increase over the year before, according to PageFair, a technology and analytics firm.
