The Top 7 advertising platforms will take 80% of digital media spend globally this year and the rest of the digital ad market will decline 11%. For comparison, print will decline 10% this year. It’s now worse to run a Web site than it is to run a newspaper. Many INMA members run both. Facebook has been flying over speed bumps while Google continues to close off its walls. Twitter and Snap are surprising role models for the publisher ecosystem, both posting impressive growth while struggling with limited resources and a shrinking audience. In this presentation, we will look at publisher strategy moving forward followed by a roundtable of publishers.
