Let’s keep talking about driving revenues, improving CPMs, and taking advantage of Q4 spending increases. There is no time to waste this quarter to make sure your site is getting its fair share of Holiday ad spend.
Ecommerce Sales Rising
The pandemic has accelerated the adoption of online purchases. According to eMarketer “US ecommerce sales will reach $794.50 billion this year, up 32.4% year-over-year. That’s a much higher growth rate than the 18.0% predicted in our Q2 forecast, as consumers continue to avoid stores and opt for online shopping amid the pandemic.”
It is anticipated that this will be a fundamental change in how people shop, that should last past the pandemic. Good news for publishers as marketers will follow their customers online and bring increased programmatic spend into the market.
