UPDATE: from January 2007 Newsletter on 'TECHNOLOGICAL CONVERGANCE'

Last month we talked about the impact that 'Technological Convergance' is having in the mobile phone industry, specifically referring to the development in mobile television and mobile web which is seeing a revolution in direct advertising to the consumer.

This week saw The Online Publishers Association release an international study of how consumers are utilizing content and advertising on the mobile web. The study finds that the mobile platform is becoming an effective source for content and marketing opportunities because of strong growth and development in the mobile phone industry and that consumers themselves are paying more attention to advertising on the mobile web.

The study found that 76% of all consumers in the US and Western Europe have access to the internet on their mobile phones and or PDA's (personal digital assistant) and one third, 32% of them actively use it. The UK in fact leads the way with 54% followed by the US and Italy both coming in at 41%.

Online Advertising Spending Hits $4.8 Billion in the last quarter of 2006

Online advertising revenues continued to grow at a staggering rate in the last quarter of 2006, reaching nearly $4.8 billion dollars, according to The Interactive Advertising Bureau (IAB) and its independent research partner PricewaterhouseCoopers. As the highest reported figures for the quarter, up by 32% from the same quarter in 2005 the report illustrates the ever increasing importance of Online Advertising services such as Google's Pay Per Click search marketing to online retailers.

As well as major marketers investing more into online advertising much of the growth has been from smaller businesses realising the potential the internet has to increase their brand awareness and work cost effectively for them as a direct marketing and sales tools for their products and services. Many of these smaller businesses originally moved online to use websites such as eBay, now more and more of them are developing websites of their own and investing in online advertising such as Pay Per Click.
