Top 20 stories: What marketers were reading in 2016

For the marketing and advertising industry, mobile, data and digital transformation were the most important topics this year. With digital media poised to outgrow TV spends in 2017, it does not come as a surprise that what readers were looking for most on Digital Market Asia this year was how to reach out to the region’s mobile consumers. Mobile wallets also rose in popularity this year in the region.

With last year’s ad blocking debate past us, this year saw some deliberations on how to make advertising better with better content. Data still continues to be an important parameter for marketers and they were looking for news on the various new data offerings and tips on how to leverage it best. Social media also drove the growth in digital this year, with chat bots arriving earlier this year and opening a whole new platform for social media marketers. As we enter into the new year, readers looked to prepare themselves for what to look out for in 2017.
