USA Online advertising is expected to grow by 17.4% in 2008

eMarketer now expects USA online advertising to grow by 17.4% to $24.9 billion in 2008, a reduction of 4%, from their projection of five months ago, due to the recession.

The video advertising spending estimate was also reduced by 64% from their February prediction.


Now it says that $505 million will be spent on online video in 2008.


So online advertising will still grow by 17.4% in 2008, compared to 2007, when online ad spending grew by 25%.


Online video ads are expected to grow by 55.9% compared with 2007. While online video ads are still a small part of the total online ad market, analysts say that there will be continuing strong growth in this area.


Our USA Local Search Business Directory is also enjoying popularity, with over 10 million businesses listed being provided with qualified prospects, at no cost to the businesses.

I think the future of business directories are user generated, social, internet yellow pages. I believe this will help keep the content fresh and up to date. Jippidy.com is one such user generated small business video yellow pages.
