Definition
Podcast advertising refers to the practice of promoting products, services, or brands through ads inserted into podcasts, which are audio recordings that can be downloaded or streamed online. Podcasts can cover a wide range of topics, including news, entertainment, education, and business. Podcast advertising can take different forms, including pre-roll ads that play at the beginning of a podcast, mid-roll ads that play in the middle of a podcast, and post-roll ads that play at the end of a podcast. Advertisers can target their ads to specific demographics, interests, or behaviors, and measure their effectiveness through metrics such as listener engagement, downloads, or conversions.Additional information:

Data coverage:
Data encompasses enterprises (B2B). Figures are based on podcast advertising spending and exclude agency commissions, rebates, production costs, and taxes. The market covers podcast streaming ads.Modeling approach:
market size is determined by a combined top-down and bottom-up approach. We use annual financial reports of the market-leading companies and industry associations, third-party reports, web traffic, and survey results from our primary research (e.g., Statista Global Consumer Survey) to analyze the markets. To estimate the market size for each country individually, we use relevant key market indicators and data from country-specific industry associations, such as GDP, internet users, consumer spending, and digital consumer spending.Forecasts:
We use a variety of forecasting techniques, depending on the behavior of the market. For instance, the S-curve function is well suited to forecast digital products due to the non-linear growth of technology adoption, whereas exponential trend smoothing (ETS) is more suited for projecting steady growth in traditional advertising markets.Additional notes:
Data is modeled using current exchange rates. The impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic and the Russia-Ukraine war are considered at a country-specific level. The market is updated twice per year in case market dynamics change.
