Introduction In 2010, a small coffee shop in Portland decided to run its first Facebook ad. The owner spent just $20, targeting locals within a 5-mile radius. The result? A weekend rush that nearly tripled their regular traffic. Fast forward to 2025, and stories like this are no longer the...

Over the five years through 2025-26, industry revenue is forecast to expand at a compound annual rate of 20.3% to reach £12.5 billion. Social media platforms are integral to people's lives, offering ways to communicate, create and view content and share information. According to Ofcom, approximately 89% of UK internet users in 2023 used social media apps or sites. Teenagers and young adults are the biggest users. Advertising is the primary revenue source for social media platforms, although subscription-based services are gaining momentum as platforms seek to diversify their incomes. TikTok is the success story of the past five years, becoming the most downloaded app between 2020 and 2022, according to Apptopia. The short-form video platform has over 30 million monthly users in the UK in 2025. After Musk's takeover, X, formerly known as Twitter, adjusted its content moderation and allowed previously banned accounts to return. As a result, over 600 advertisers pulled their ads from the site because of fears their brand may be associated with malcontent. In response to falling ad revenue, X has introduced a subscription-based service which enables users to verify themselves and boosts the number of people who view their tweets. Meta-owned Facebook and Instagram have responded by introducing a similar service. In 2025, more social media platforms are using AI to boost user engagement. This improves click-through rates and drives higher advertising revenue. Industry revenue is expected to grow by 6.3% in 2025-26. Over the five years through 2030-31, social media platforms' revenue is projected to climb at an estimated 9.2% to reach £19.4 billion. Regulations relating to how data is collected, stored, and shared will force advertisers and platforms to rethink how they can target their desired demographics. The tightening of regulations will raise industry compliance costs, weighing on profit margin. Older age groups present a new revenue opportunity for social media platforms if they can bridge the gap between passive TV consumption and interactive digital engagement. Augmented Reality (AR) technology will move beyond filters to become standard for immersive product trials, interactive ads, and virtual meetups

Mobile Advertising Market Outlook

According to our latest research, the global mobile advertising market size reached USD 218.8 billion in 2024, driven by the rapid proliferation of smartphones and increasing internet penetration worldwide. The market is expected to sustain robust momentum, registering a CAGR of 13.6% during the forecast period. By 2033, the mobile advertising market is projected to reach an impressive USD 646.3 billion. This remarkable growth is primarily attributed to the continuous evolution of digital ecosystems, advancements in data analytics, and the rising adoption of programmatic advertising models that enable precise targeting and real-time bidding.

One of the principal growth factors for the mobile advertising market is the exponential increase in mobile device usage across the globe. With over 6.9 billion smartphone users in 2024, digital consumption patterns have shifted significantly towards mobile-first experiences. This trend is further amplified by the widespread availability of affordable smartphones and high-speed internet, especially in emerging economies. Brands and marketers are leveraging this shift to deliver personalized, location-based, and interactive advertising campaigns, ensuring higher engagement and conversion rates. The integration of artificial intelligence and machine learning in ad tech platforms has further optimized ad placements and content relevance, driving higher returns on advertising investments.

Another significant driver is the transformation in consumer behavior, with users spending more time on mobile applications and social media platforms. The proliferation of mobile apps across categories such as gaming, e-commerce, finance, and entertainment has created new opportunities for in-app advertising, which now constitutes a substantial portion of total mobile ad spend. Moreover, the rise of video and rich media ads has enhanced the user experience, encouraging higher click-through rates and engagement. Social media giants like Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, and Snapchat have introduced innovative mobile ad formats, such as stories and short-form videos, which are particularly effective in capturing the attention of younger demographics.

The evolution of programmatic advertising is also shaping the future of the mobile advertising market. Programmatic ad buying automates the process of purchasing and placing ads, leveraging real-time data to optimize campaigns for maximum impact. This has led to increased efficiency, reduced costs, and improved targeting capabilities. Furthermore, advancements in privacy regulations and data protection frameworks, such as GDPR and CCPA, are prompting the industry to adopt more transparent and user-centric advertising practices, fostering consumer trust and long-term growth.

From a regional perspective, North America currently dominates the mobile advertising market, accounting for over 34% of global revenues in 2024.

Native Advertising Platform Market Outlook

According to our latest research, the global native advertising platform market size reached USD 16.2 billion in 2024. The market is experiencing robust expansion, driven by the increasing demand for seamless and non-intrusive advertising formats. The Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) is estimated at 12.8% from 2025 to 2033. By the end of the forecast period in 2033, the market is projected to achieve a value of USD 47.4 billion. This growth is fueled by the rising adoption of digital media, the proliferation of mobile devices, and the escalating need among brands to deliver personalized content that blends naturally with user experiences.

One of the primary growth drivers for the native advertising platform market is the shift in consumer preferences toward less disruptive forms of advertising. As traditional banner advertising faces increasing resistance due to ad-blocking technologies and declining click-through rates, brands and publishers are turning to native advertising to engage audiences more effectively. Native ads, which are integrated seamlessly into the content experience of a website or app, generate higher engagement and trust from users. This trend is further accelerated by the growing sophistication of artificial intelligence and machine learning algorithms, which enable platforms to deliver more relevant and personalized ad experiences, thereby increasing return on investment for advertisers.

Another significant factor propelling market growth is the explosive increase in mobile device usage and social media consumption worldwide. With more than 6.9 billion smartphone users globally in 2024, mobile has become the primary channel for content consumption. Native advertising platforms are leveraging this trend by optimizing ad formats for mobile environments, enhancing user experience, and ensuring higher visibility and interaction rates. Social networks such as Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter have also integrated native ad formats into their feeds, further expanding the market's reach and effectiveness. The growing emphasis on video content, particularly short-form videos, is also contributing to the expansion of native ad formats across various digital platforms.

The native advertising platform market is also benefiting from the increasing focus on data-driven advertising strategies. Brands and agencies are investing heavily in analytics and programmatic technologies to optimize their campaigns in real time. Native advertising platforms are responding by offering advanced targeting, tracking, and reporting capabilities, which allow advertisers to measure campaign performance with precision. This data-centric approach not only improves campaign outcomes but also enables greater transparency and accountability, which are critical factors for advertisers in highly regulated sectors such as healthcare and finance. The integration of privacy-compliant data practices is further supporting the adoption of native advertising platforms, particularly in regions with stringent data protection regulations.

From a regional perspective, North America remains the largest market for native advertising platforms, accounting for more than 38% of global revenue in 2024. The region's dominance is attributed to the high penetration of digital media, advanced technological infrastructure, and a mature advertising ecosystem. However, Asia Pacific is emerging as the fastest-growing region, with a projected CAGR of 15.2% through 2033. This rapid growth is fueled by the increasing digitalization of economies, expanding internet user base, and significant investments in mobile and social media advertising. Europe, Latin America, and the Middle East & Africa are also witnessing steady growth, driven by rising digital advertising budgets and the proliferation of local content platforms.

Component Analysis
