TV is Dead… Long Live the Internet!
Well it's finally happened and it's only taken 10 years. Today, figures have shown that advertising on the Internet has finally overtaken TV to become the largest form of advertising in the UK.The winner
Online spending grew by 4.6% to £1.752bn in the first half of this year, while spending on TV shrank 16.1% to £1.639bn.
The study by the Internet Advertising Bureau and PricewaterhouseCoopers also says that overall advertising fell 16% compared with the same period in 2008.
The report states that as the recession has grown it has accelerated the migration of advertising spending to digital technology from the more traditional media such as press, radio and television.
However, Thinkbox, the marketing body for the main UK commercial television broadcasters, said the figures did not comparelike with like.
"Online marketing spend is made up of many things including e-mail, classified ads, display ads and, overwhelmingly, search marketing. They should be judged individually," said Lindsey Clay, Thinkbox's marketing director.
Despite this it's a huge gain for the importance of the Internet as an advertising medium and with Google's dominance of the browser market makes them the largest advertising company in the UK currently.
We shall see how things develop, but it goes to show how now more than ever, having a strong online presence is essential for every business.

Internet Marketing Conference on SLife
- I've been trying to log in but it keeps crashing.. anyways..
a friend of mine in BC plans on holding Internet Marketing Conferences on SecondLife and have the same top internet marketers that would normally be in Live Internet Marketing conference speak.
Income will be generated from admission charges, product sales during breaks, sponsor tables, etc etc..
Just to get the ideas flowing in your head that anything you can do in the real world can be replicated in SL.
There is no planned date as of yet for this conference.
How Quick is That
- Just to let you know that as I'm not as sharp as I might be in the ftp sort of world, I had a problem today with uploading a new site.
Hostgator 'Live Chat' fixed this for me in two minutes flat and didn't make me feel I was an idiot at all (at least anymore than I felt myself).
As I'm in the UK and ringing early am for me here, I thought that 'Live Chat' might have been EST, so off for me, but no, they were there!
BTW I'd spelt my nameservers slightly wrong - duh!
Now that's what I call service.
Regards.
Re: Recommendations for going Wireless
- GT,
I've used "Air Cards" from Sprint, T-Mobile and Verizon. I've also use a Blackberry as an external modem. Like any device there are limitations.
The down side to these devices is whether or not your computer is in a dead zone. As for getting onto the Internet via these devices, they do well, but there in again it depends on where you are at.
Dead zones are common and can disconnect you from the Internet without warning. But just as quickly as you get disconnected your device can easily detect a signal and reconnect without you having to log back in.
Now the bad news. Monthly rates are a huge factor for this convenience and do not provide any real savings. Check your local provider for packages and pricing.
