Efforts to make social advertising more effective Data partnerships: Data from companies such as Datalogix, Axciom and Epsilon helps Facebook advertisers determine whether someone who saw an ad eventually made a purchase. Twitter also has a partnership with Datalogix. Objective-based advertising: Marketers choose one of eight objectives before buying advertising on Facebook, and get recommendations for which types of ads to use to meet those objectives. Less focus on fans: After touting fan acquisition as a goal in 2012, social media companies are now speaking in terms advertisers know: sales, conversions and results. ©2013 eMarketer Inc.

Trend No. 5:No More Walled Gardens In 2014, advertisers will finally get what they’ve been hoping for: the ability to use rich social media user data to target consumers across digital channels.
