The battle for digital ad revenue share in the United States

Amazon advertising in the United States is a crucial source of income and growth for the online retailer, as it battles with Google and Meta over ad revenue. Although tech giants still have the largest shares of digital ad revenue in the country, their supremacy is weakening. On the other hand, Amazon's share of total U.S. digital advertising revenues continues to increase. By 2025, it is projected to exceed 15 percent.

Digital advertising leads the global ad market

Advertising spending worldwide continues to follow an upward trend in recent years. By the end of 2024, global ad spending will likely reach approximately 885 billion dollars, up from 336 billion dollars in 2000. The most significant factor in this growth is the dominance of digital advertising. In 2021, online advertising accounted for nearly two-thirds of the total advertising spending worldwide. By 2026, the share is expected to exceed 72.5 percent.
