Can Meta remain the ‘holy grail of paid advertising’ with challenges, challengers and Advantage+?

It has been just over two years since Apple introduced Apple Tracking Transparency (ATT) and iOS 14 to limit the amount of user data app developers and advertisers have access to. It’s especially been a pain point for social media advertisers dependent on Meta’s performance, targeting and measurement capabilities.

Albeit, there are challengers in the space, like TikTok and Pinterest, which stand to gain from Meta’s loss. While the platform saw its advertising revenues decline recently, it still holds its place as front runner in digital ad budgets with 93% of advertisers still spending on the platform, according to Digiday research.

How a new data-driven TV ad product from Blockgraph aims to harmonize varied data feeds

Blockgraph, a corporate-backed ad-tech player in the data-driven TV ad space, has always focused on being privacy compliant. Its strategy has adapted as new laws and regulation have gone into place and the ad industry at-large mulls over what will replace Google’s third-party cookies.
