Mobile devices have kept taking a larger place in our lives for as long as they’ve been around. Weirdly enough, even though a larger share of digital visits happens on mobile, we’re still thinking of online advertising through the lens of a computer screen and most publishers have barely started to optimize their mobile inventory, let alone making it their #1 priority. Let’s put this in perspective by looking at some numbers. Mobile Internet advertising revenue now accounts for 69.6% of all online advertising revenue (source internet Ad revenue report 2019 )– a share that amounted to $189B worldwide in 2019, projected to be at $240B next year (source: Statista ) Having outpaced desktop advertising growth over 15 to 1 since 2010 (total Internet advertising revenue compound annual growth rate (CAGR), mobile vs desktop- Mekko graphics.

For the past few years, the digital world has been following Google’s plan to centralize user identification and profiling on the Web. With the end of third-party cookies on its way, we’re seeing a mix of doubt and feeling of new opportunities being shared on the matter.

Google has introduced Turtledove, a new form of audience targeting for advertisers. It comes in addition to other targeting solutions developed…
With Google Privacy Sandbox well on its way to replace third party cookies, along with California and Europe leading the way for stricter privacy laws to protect user’s personal data, publishers and advertisers are looking for effective ways to execute targeting advertising. The advertising world is already ready to begin a post third-party cookie world, by accepting and building on the targeting that was successful in the past. There’s no question that contextual targeting is making a comeback, the question is how has it changed over the past few years and why should you increase your attention to it? Our ability to build machines that learn the context of articles, and communicate that to advertisers has prepared us for this new age. In the past, contextual targeting only went as far as knowing the general topic of a site, maybe a keyword or two. Now, we can effectively collect contextual…

Facebook said it will begin restoring news sharing to Australian users’ feeds in “the coming days” after reaching an agreement with the country’s government.
