This year, U.S. online video ad revenue is on pace to exceed $1.3 billion, according to new research from Parks Associates. The report attributes the healthy numbers to steady growth in online video viewership, combined with the ability to target specific viewers based on preferences and viewing history.
The new research supports other findings by Parks, which indicates that large percentages of consumers -- especially younger consumers -- have yet to form a strong opinion regarding targeted advertising.
"Indifference indicates consumers can be won over by new advertising strategies, provided these messages are designed well, with truly relevant content," said Heather Way, research analyst, Parks Associates. "Also, the younger age groups are more receptive to the concept of targeted advertising, and advertisers place a premium on the ability to reach these demographics."
