Internet ad spending in the United States slowed sharply in the first half of the year after a strong recovery in 2011, but still hit a new high of $17 billion as smartphones and tablet devices became more popular.
?
Data released on Thursday from the Internet Advertising Bureau and PricewaterhouseCoopers showed the growth slowed to 14 percent from 23 percent in the year-ago period.
?
David Silverman, a partner at PwC, said 2011 benefited from a comeback after advertisers put the brakes on spending during the recession.
?
Mobile advertising was a strong gainer, jumping 95 percent to $1.2 billion. Video advertising rose 18 percent to $1 billion.
?
Search advertising took the biggest share of the spending at $8.1 billion, while display advertising totaled $5.6 billion. ? Reuters
