Internet Advertising Spending to Double its Share by
2010
Interactivity and Targetability Are Key Merits for Winning Ad
Formats
Spending on Internet advertising will account for 10% of total U.S. ad
dollars in 2010, doubling from 5% in 2004, according to
The Changing
Face of Advertising in the Digital Age, a new report from Parks
Associates. This increase represents a CAGR (compound annual growth rate)
of 14% over the next five years.

The report, which includes data from Parks Associates’ consumer study
Digital Entertainment: Changing Consumer Habits, also finds that
almost 21% of Internet users consider Internet advertising as the most
relevant ad format for them, outscoring more traditional media formats
such as newspapers, magazines, and radio.
“In the next few years, the Internet will become a mainstream ad
platform and attract top dollars from advertisers,” said
Harry
Wang, research analyst at Parks Associates. “Because the
Internet is an interactive and versatile platform and offers rich consumer
usage data, advertisers can improve their ad targetability and achieve
better results.”
Such benefits are extremely important to advertisers, who have been
plagued by audience and media fragmentation and a lack of in-depth media
consumption data from traditional ad formats. Many large companies with
familiar brands, including Anheuser-Busch, Procter & Gamble, Verizon, and
Wachovia, have been moving money out of network TV and to the Web,
demonstrating advertisers’ growing confidence in Internet advertising.
“Traditional media companies are fully aware of this ongoing change in
the advertising industry,”
Wang said. “The
Internet has altered the standard for the entire ad world, and traditional
media have to respond by making their media platforms more interactive and
results-oriented.”
The
Changing Face of Advertising in the Digital Age is a comprehensive

behavior for digital entertainment in the home, including product
