Online Ad Spend to Top $55B by 2010

Piper Jaffray analyst Safa Rashtchy predicts the rapid growth of online advertising is near an "inflection point" at which gains will begin to accelerate, bringing about the time when online spending accounts for 10 percent of total ad spending much earlier than previously forecast.

Rashtchy's "conservative" estimate is that online advertising will exceed $55 billion globally by 2010, a 27 percent compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over 2005.

"Advertisers are interested in enhancing the effects of both display and search advertising by creating a coherent campaign that reaches the consumers in various types of inventories," Rashtchy said.
