Abstract

With the maturation of the internet, many organizations have relied on the ubiquitous reach of the internet targeting. On average, every “consumer” is exposed to over 300 advertisements throughout a given 24 h period. What is disturbing is that we remember approximately 12 of these advertisements – a paltry 4%! A viable solution is to utilize a heuristic search for consumers, and this is where audience targeting becomes central to a successful marketing campaign. Audience targeting – tracking our activities, utilizing cookie data, and other strategies for acquiring information necessary for developing individualized consumer-centric models, has clearly engendered distrust amongst many internet consumers. In addition, bots, non-human traffic, and Malvertising all pose threats to our sense of security while on the internet. Somehow, the IT industry, working in conjunction with marketing standards boards must find a way to ensure digital marketing continues, without costing undue levels of distrust from the suer community.
