Ad spend in the UAE down for Q1

Pan Arab Research Center (PARC) has found that advertising spend in the UAE dropped by 8%, to $193m, in the first quarter of 2006 compared to the same period in 2005.

There’s also been a re-distribution of expenditures among media channels in the country. The media which lost ground were newspapers (7% down), and local television (57% down). Media which gained were outdoor (60% up), radio (40% up), and magazines (17% up).

The massive change in fortunes of local TV, outdoor and radio within one year is indicative of how dynamic and fast-moving the UAE market can be. Watch out!

Contact PARC for more information.

    What about Online Advertising? Did it go up or down according to their findings?

    Research centers only monitor old-school media; online advertising is a big mystery for them, when ever you discuss this issue with them they will start doubting figures of any website, pages-views, unique visitors, delivered impressions… etc. I guess eventually they will understand it; hopefully.
