From Marketing Land:

  • YouTube Narrowing Traffic Gap With Facebook [Study]
    YouTube’s US traffic is closing in on Facebook, and could eventually surpass the top social network in a matter of years. The data come from How Much Media? 2013, a new report from the University of Southern California’s Marshall School of Business.

  • Survey: Windows Phones Beating iPhone In Italy
    Kantar Worldpanel ComTech reports that its latest market share survey data show Windows Phone has passed the iPhone in Italy.

  • Poll: Public Skeptical About Twitter IPO
    A new Associated Press-CNBC poll reflects skepticism about Twitter’s IPO prospects. The poll was conducted by telephone in late October among roughly 1,000 US adults.

  • Abandoning Third-Party Cookies? What Gives, Google?
    It’s been reported that Google is working on its own online identifier system, called AdID, which could replace the third-party cookies used by marketers to track people’s online behavior, better targeting their advertising efforts. Google’s AdID would be transmitted to advertisers and ad networks that have agreed to basic guidelines, which would give consumers more […]
  • iPad Air Has Blockbuster Opening Weekend
    According to data from app marketing platform Fiksu, the iPad Air is “is seeing five times the usage the iPad 4 did two days after launch – and more than 3 times that of the iPad mini.” The new iPad Mini with Retina Display has yet to launch. The data come from “millions” of iOS devices […]
  • For The First Time Ever, Facebook Sees Decrease In “Young Teen” Usage
    On Wednesday’s earnings call, Facebook reported revenue of $2.02 billion, noting that mobile is now generating half of Ad revenue and that mobile daily active users were on the rise.

  • The Ultimate Holiday Prep List: 28 Things Every Marketer Should Do For Holiday
    All right, so maybe that title is a little arrogant. After all, there are a million holiday list articles this time of year, ranging from “Top 10” lists to “Survival Guides” and everything in between. So, why read this one? Well, this one is different (read: hopefully interesting and helpful). This article doesn’t take the […]
  • Facebook Testing “Hover Metrics” And Other New Behavioral Data Collection
    Earlier this week, the head of Facebook analytics, Ken Rudin, said that the company may begin capturing even more data about how users behave on the social site. The data collected could include minute interactions or more specialized information than has previously been tracked. According to a report in the Wall Street Journal, Rudin told […]
  • Ad-Free No More: Instagram Ads Have Officially Hit The Feed
    Today, we officially bid adieu to the ad-free Instagram feed. From here on out, Instagram will run official ads that will display content to users — no follow required.
