Our top 10 display advertising columns for 2017



One of the hottest topics of discussion in 2017’s display advertising arena is speculation about what will happen next year, specifically February 15 of next year, when Google plans to release a version of its Chrome browser with ad-blocking features baked in. The feature targets “annoying” and “intrusive” ads only, but exactly what that means remains to be seen. In the meantime, Marketing Land columnists like Blaise Lucey are getting our readership up to speed, with specific tips on how to assess your risk and adjust if necessary.

Programmatic ad fraud and big advertisers’ attempts to deal with it remain significant industry challenges in 2017, fueling interest in formats like native advertising and branded content. But programmatic is evolving as well, with the Google Display Network’s responsive ads, data-driven creative and the growth of header bidding. Despite its flaws, programmatic has become so inevitable that it’s taking over other media, which we’ve covered with an exploration of programmatic TV.
