Philanthropic Superbowl Ads, Amazon Ad Growth and more

Ads, ads and more ads! I’m gearing up for the Superbowl for two major reasons this year: a) my beloved Philadelphia Eagles are playing and b) to watch all of the ads. However, some brands are taking a more philanthropic approach this time around. In the online space, Amazon’s ad business grew by $1.7 billion. That is still a far cry from Google, however, even though Amazon may be behind, they’re far from out!

Speaking of Google, you can see who came out on top in search during 2017. Also, learn more about the ripple effect of Facebook’s newsfeed and ad changes, get Hubspot’s take on trends, and check out how one bank is attempting to win over millennials.
