Digital advertising faces a $5 billion downgrade in 2023

Digital Ad Spending
United States

For more insights and key statistics on the biggest trends in today’s most disruptive industries, subscribe to our Chart of the Day newsletter.

We cut $5.51 billion from our US digital ad spending forecast for 2023, due to the fallout from Apple’s privacy changes, Google’s deprecation of third-party cookies, and a stricter regulatory environment. Along with inflation and a potential recession, these challenges will depress spending until 2025, when it should return to previously projected levels.

Beyond the chart: The biggest hit will be to social networks, which will bring in $16.21 billion less in US ad revenues during 2023 than our prior estimate. Conversely, we upgraded our outlook for connected TV ad spending by $3.02 billion.
