what effects will local online advertising have on the GYM / Google MSN YAHOO!
some interesting thoughts I read today on Clickz about possible effects on the big players in the Searchmarket.
Paid search advertising by local advertisers is poised to more than double
this year to $987 million, and nearly double again in ‘07. That’s
according to the “2006 Local Search Advertising” report from research
firm Borrell Associates, which indicates local advertising could have a
transformative effect on the overall search engine landscape.
Local Search Market to grow hugely
The global online local search market, which includes Internet Yellow Pages, local
search and wireless, is set to grow from the $3.4 billion it brought in
last year to nearly $13 billion by 2010. That’s according to a new
forecast by the Kelsey Group.
