Get Top 5 Digital Advertising Trends to Watch in 2019

Digital advertising has seen a whirlwind of changes and trends already this year, with many redefining the future of advertising. As we’re nearly half way through 2018, these digital advertising trends will also take us well into 2019, reshaping much of the industry moving forward.
Strike Social has compiled the top five trends in adtech that businesses should be watching in 2018.

The need for personalized consumer experiences

A major trend in 2018 is personalization. People are more willing to interact with a brand that offers a personalized experience. Consumers no longer want to be a number to businesses. They want experiences that are unique to them. Brands using actionable data can securely determine information about a group of consumers, and target them appropriately based on their needs or desires.
If done correctly and thoughtfully, it’s a win-win for the consumer and the business—the consumer has a quality, personalized connection that is meaningful to them, and as a result, they continue to do business with the company.

“As long as brands are mindful of creating these types of experiences, they can positively resonate with consumers to increase brand loyalty and revenue.”


Of course, creating a personalized consumer experience requires integrated marketing technology and data-driven insights. Personalized consumer experiences might include recommending products in similar categories or location-based marketing, though they can go much deeper than these examples.

The surge in automation

Automation in digital advertising is nothing new. In fact, it’s been slowly seeping into the industry for nearly 10 years and only recently has taken off. Also known as programmatic advertising, automation does a myriad of things for humans, such as creating faster processes and performing at higher efficiency rates. More and more, we’re seeing advertisers shift their focus to this strategy.
As digital advertising becomes more personalized, it’s becoming increasingly difficult for humans to handle the weight of data-driven advertising on their own. That’s why automation is becoming so beneficial for advertisers to make decisions, measure data, personalize experiences and much more.

An increase in mobile video marketing

It’s no secret that mobile usage has increased each year. Along with it, video on mobile is growing in popularity with consumers, and the competition is stiff. It’s projected that video will account for 80 percent of all internet traffic in 2019. Keep in mind that YouTube reports a 100 percent growth in mobile video consumption every year.
