Search Engine Advertiser Update – Q1 2010
April 13, 2010
The first quarter of 2010 appears to have been a positive one for Yahoo!. We noted a 12% increase in the number of first-page advertisers as well as a corresponding increase in total share of advertisers (over 27.6% in February and March – a long term high.)
While we do not generate ad spend estimates for Yahoo!, the data suggests that much of this growth may be coming from outside the US. Yahoo! international ad coverage reached a high of 4.7 ads/keyword in February, the most ads they’ve shown since July of 2007.
