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?

    I tried to access the link provided but it seems to be not working!

    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.
