Social Media Ad Spending Lags - Social Media Advertising - Facebook, Twitter, iPhone

Social media use is exploding, but ad spending in the sector continues to be a blip on the radar for most brands.

  Razorfish, one of the largest digital ad spenders, compiled data on its 2009 digital ad spending. It found that social media display advertising made up just 3 percent of its clients' budgets. Non-display in social media accounted for another 1 percent. The figures pale in comparison to the time spent online. According to comScore, U.S. Internet users spent 11 percent of their time online in 2011 on social media sites.
