Local Media Grows Digital Ad Revs
Local digital media revenues will climb at a modest double-digit rate this year -- with online video and mobile search two of the biggest gainers. Overall, BIA/Kelsey's report expects all local media to hit $133 billion in 2012 -- as per its March report -- down from a $136 billion estimate.
Going forward over the next four years, the media researcher expects online
revenues from newspapers to grow at 5% per year in revenues on average; for radio, this comes to 11.8%; TV, 12.8%; digital out of home, 11.7%; original online, 9.4%; mobile, 44.9%; Internet Yellow
Pages, 12.5%; email, reputation and presence management,14.9%; social media, 21%; and online video, 36.7%.
BIA/Kelsey says advertising revenues from all local interactive and digital will
grow 13% in 2012. In March, BIA/Kelsey forecast that local digital revenues would climb to $38 billion in 2016 from the $21 billion in 2011.
For this year, top performers will include
mobile search growing 77.2%; online video up 51.6%; and social media 26.3% higher. The report says for some media -- particularly newspapers -- digital ad revenues will be the only source of
growth.
Mark Fratrik, vice president and chief economist, BIA/Kelsey, stated: "As businesses examine their advertising opportunities, the trend is moving toward building a coordinated ad
plan across different platforms, with different messages across different media."
