Worldwide online advertising revenues continue to skyrocket as the worst of the recession fades and businesses begin to spend again. In the United States advertising revenues have hit new highs, reaching $7.88 billion in Q3 2011, representing a 2.7% increase from the previous peak in Q2 2011, according to the Internet Advertising Bureau (IAB) and PricewaterhouseCoopers (PwC US). "Even with a softened economy, digital advertising is making tremendous gains," says PwC US partner David Silverman.
