UK Online Ad Spend to Eclipse TV in 2009

10th January 2008 by Kerry Dye

A recent report by Group M demonstrates that they have read their
crystal ball and determined that given current growth patterns in spending on
TV advertising and internet, there will be more spent online by 2009.

There is a good breakdown of the data by
eMarketer
and a really nice
analysis of why this should happen in the UK particularly. The TV market in
the UK
certainly seems to be anomalous, which is what is giving rise to the potential
overtaking in spend, compared to the rest of the world. 

Karin von Abrams, the analyst, also points
out that in the UK
we have had good, concrete examples of online spending that has worked, and
this breeds further investment.  I know
that in terms of website marketing, the UK is a mature market; it has
always been amongst the top countries for internet penetration, use and
spending. The National Statistics site has some great up to date information
from 2007 about how many UK
households have internet access,
which is now up to 61%.

Vertical Leap are certainly noticing a
greater maturity in the clients coming to us for UK SEO services,
they are more knowledgeable about what they want and what they need to succeed
online.
