Furthermore, the number of people on social media is only going to increase in the coming years.

This happens to be a major online advertising marketplace for the advertising agencies as the agencies get to target millions of people with prospects of buying a diverse range of products of different brands. The major challenge in the online advertising market is that the customers are blocking ads on various social media platforms and search engines. Furthermore, these platforms come up with a new algorithm on a regular basis, which makes it a bit difficult for the agencies to realign their marketing strategies in inclination with the changes made on the platform. Additionally, the growth prospects in the market are creating overwhelming competition in the niche."
