Internet advertising expenditure is gaining share in Hong Kong, expected to surpass newspaper adspend in 2018 and perhaps the incumbent ad share leader, television, in 2020. Internet adspend accounted for 15.8% of the total adspend in 2016, up from 13.4% in 2015, according to Zenith’s Advertising Expenditure Forecasts, published in March 2017. Overall, advertising expenditure declined by 7.1% from 2015 to 2016, but gradual recovery is projected over the next three years.

The Hong Kong economy has slowed down, with consumer confidence dropping sharply in Q1 and Q2 2016, reaching its lowest level since Q4 2012, partly explaining the sluggish growth compared to mainland China.

No. 2 ad economy, China, see surge in Internet adspend: Zenith

Posted on August 11, 2017 by

Between 2016 and 2019, China’s advertising expenditure will grow from US$80.2 billion to US$98.2 billion, led by Internet advertising, according to Zenith’s Advertising Expenditure Forecasts, published in March 2017.

China will contribute 24% of global adspend growth from 2016 to 2019, compared with the No. 1 United States, 28%; and the UK, India and Indonesia, 4% each, Zenith forecasted. The United States contributed $191 billion to the advertising economy in 2016, and is predicted to contribute US$211.5 billion in 2019.

Between 2006 and 2016, China was the seventh highest advertising growth economy in the world. However, China’s economy slowed to 6.7% in 2016.

Meanwhile, other “fast track” countries in Asia have become advertising growth hubs, including the Philippines, Indonesia, India, and Vietnam from 2015 and 2019, all which are on the world’s Top 10 list of fastest growing advertising economies, according to Zenith. China dominates the “fast track” region of Asia with 74% of all adspend. The region includes China, India, Indonesia, Malaysia, Pakistan, Philippines, Taiwan, Thailand and Vietnam, according to Zenith.

Australia to become 8th biggest advertising market: Zenith

Posted on August 7, 2017 by

Australia will become the 8th biggest advertising market in the world by 2019, moving from the No. 9 spot in 2016, according to Zenith’s Advertising Expenditure Forecasts, published in March 2017. Surging Internet adspend is credited with the growth, from US$11.1 billion to a projected US$12.1 billion in adspend from 2016 to 2019.

By 2019, Internet adspend will represent adspend for all of the other media combined. Internet adspend is expected to be almost US$7 billion, while all adspend will be just over $12.1 billion, according to Zenith.

TV revenue was down 3.9% and print media declined 13.4% in 2016, with the latter only accounting for 11% of adspend, compared to 25% of the total adspend five years ago. Radio adspend grew 5.8% from 2015 to 2016, with increased spend from big spending categories like retail and auto, according to Zenith.

Strong GDP a reliable predictor of strong adspend growth: Zenith

Posted on August 4, 2017 by

Advertising expenditure traditionally has been based on gross domestic product projections for each country. Zenith has pegged International Monetary Fund GDP statistics to project adspend for the foreseeable future. Zenith predicts global adspend to reach US$592 billion by the end of 2018, growing 4.4% in both 2017 and 2018.

 

However, lower projected economic performance in Western Europe and Asia Pacific is responsible for a projected dip in GDP and adspend growth from 2018 and 2019 of 4.2%, according to Zenith’s Advertising Expenditure Forecasts, published in March 2017.

Display ads surpass search as No. 1 Internet adspend category: Zenith

Posted on July 28, 2017 by

Programmatically targeted display ads unseated search ads as No. 1 Internet platform this year, according to Zenith’s Advertising Expenditure Forecasts, published in March 2017. Display includes banners, online video and social media. Data-driven, programmatic advertising networks automatically deliver targeted ad to segmented audiences and individuals.

Traditional banners are considered statically delivered, and not targeted as with programmatically delivered advertising. Traditional banner adspend has been flat at about US$30 billion since 2014. Online video adspend is expected to surpass traditional banners’ adspend in 2018.

Display advertising is expected to account for US$121 billion in adspend by 2019, compared with about US$105 billion for search. Meanwhile, social media advertising has surged since 2014, and is expected to hit US$58 billion by 2019, according to Zenith.

Mobile Internet is projected to grow US$81.8 billion from 2016 to 2019, according to Zenith’s Advertising Expenditure Forecasts, published in March 2017. When Internet advertising is broken down by device, mobile advertising on smartphones and tablets is the winner by a large margin. Mobile display, classified and search, including in-app ads, grow 95% from 2014 to 2015, 49% from 2015 to 2016, and is expected to grown an average annual growth rate of 26% per year between 2016 and 2019, according to Zenith.
