Advertising to men ... online and mobile hold the key
October 30, 2008 A recent survey by MediaPost.com of 500 US men aged 18-34 found that the Internet is far more essential to their daily lives than TV.
- nearly 70% said they could not live without the Internet (only 30% said the same about TV)
- 40% said they use the Internet for 22 hours every week, often for entertainment and socializing
- 60% said they notice online ads
- nearly half said they have purchased a product as a result of an online ad
- two-thirds said they own a smart phone
- 25% surf the Web from a mobile device
The survey also found that not only does humour rank among the top video preference, but men were also more receptive to ads that were incorporated into contests or had interactive components.
