The global social media advertising market is expected to reach $262 billion by 2028, up from $103 billion in 2020, according to a new report by Million Insights. This would give it a CAGR of 12.4% for that period.
What’s driving it. As with all things digital, social media has seen its popularity surge during the pandemic. Worldwide 4.48 billion people currently use social media, more than double from 2.07 billion in 2015, according to Backlinko. In the U.S., use has increased from 5% of adults in 2005 to 72% in 2021, according to Pew Research. This is a remarkable turn-around from 2018, when social media was stagnating, with Facebook reporting no increase in its U.S. user base, while Twitter and Snapchat were losing users. In 2020 Americans averaged 82 minutes per day on social media, a seven-minute jump from 2019. This presents marketers with an unequaled opportunity: More people and the ability to better measure all the parts of a marketing campaign.
