Meta Platforms is projected to surpass Alphabet’s Google in digital advertising revenue globally by the end of 2026, and dethrone the search-engine behemoth in the lucrative business, according to Emarketer.
The Instagram-owner’s global net ad revenues are expected to reach $243.46 billion in 2026, ahead of Google’s projected $239.54 billion, the market research firm said.
Meta’s Advantage+ automated ad suite has been gaining strong advertiser adoption due to its ability to streamline campaign setup and enhance return on marketing spend.
