OPA Study: Marketers Prefer Publishers to Facebook
Posted: 11/14/2012 | By: TJ Raphael | Folio
Even though social networks like Facebook are becoming increasingly
popular, marketers still prefer content publishers to all other media
for online advertising, a new study from the Online Publishers Association (OPA) shows.
“If we think about the conversation that has taken place over the last
12 months, there has been so much focus on programmatic buying,” says
Pam Horan, president of the OPA. “We wanted to take a step back and
better understand what marketers and agencies were thinking about
regarding their brand advertising because so much of the focus has been
on direct or audience buying. This was an opportunity to hear from a
very important voice—a brand marketer.”
