We're seeing a lot of great news about online advertising dollars and what that could mean for gibLink. The latest forecast for Internet advertising is out from eMarketer, which says that in the U.S., online advertising dollars will rise from $21 billion this year to $42 billion by 2011.Web advertising's share of the overall ad U.S. market during that period will also roughly double.

Meantime, the average American's online spending will also grow from $114 in 2007 to $199 per person in 2011. (These latest numbers are based on data from the Interactive Advertising Bureau and PriceWaterhouseCoopers.)

These forecasts can be wrong, but what this really means for us here at gibLink is that the online advertising sector is more bullish than ever, with growing sentiment favoring it.That's in spite of word that other forms of advertising are struggling or even sinking!Now is the time to sell advertising, and help your family, friends and neighbors to start or expand a small business via the internet, as well as getting your own business in high gear for the wave in internet advertising!

You and I are already seeing these changes, but for analysts like David Hallerman, author of the new report US Advertising Spending, it's marked by four specific milestones.

"First, US Internet ad spending surpassed $5 Billion in Q2 2007." That, my friends, is the largest sum recorded in any quarter, and according to Hallerman, fourth quarter projections are for $6 Billion in ad sales.

"Second, while 69 of the 100 largest US advertisers put smaller budget shares into four traditional media---television, radio, newspapers and magazines---in 2006 than in the previous year, 70 of the same group put larger shares into Internet advertising."

This means our business is growing while other sectors of advertising are shrinking. That reversal speaks volumes about the future growth and value of internet advertising!

"Third, even as the credit crunch pulls ad money off the total media table, the Internet looks to be more resistant to economic turmoil," according to Hallerman who adds, that online advertising contributes more and more to advertising bottom lines on a quarter by quarter basis, every year.

Finally, Hallerman says, "Data from both eMarketer and TNS Media Intelligence indicates that 2007 Internet ad spending will be higher than for radio, as reported in August.That is the first time online ad spending will be greater than for any of the four traditional measured media."
