Different Types Of Advertising
Advertising
Advertising is expanding everywhere you go in all types of technology whether it’s on Facebook, or on Google. TV or Radio. Adverts are on everything. Everywhere you go you will be confronted with an advert and that is how these websites and publishers get their money as they gain there profit through advertising companies. Advertising has been around for years. It was one of the oldest ways and best ways to sell products and through the years it has expanded. Nowadays you don’t just see advertising on paper you can also see it via: Internet, social networking sites, radio, TV, billboards, paper, games and DVDs.
Now TV has come along with
its many channels advertises also pay TV shows to give up a bit of their show
on the TV for advertises to try and persuade the public to buy the things they
are advertising. Also advertises are smart as they don't want to waste money on
selling a product to the wrong audience. Take car insurance, an advert wouldn't
be seen on a kids TV show like Cbeebies. On a TV show like Cbeebies you would
get adverts for toys and things like that to get children on hitched to a
certain toy and make mums and dads go out to buy the advertised toy for them.
The changing Google and Wikipedia
The Changing Google and Wikipedia
Google is now becoming even more popular as now it is one of the biggest internet search engines there are. Along with Wikipedia these two servers are hugely impacted with the public as they both make the public happier as they are easier to use as anyone can use them. Google began in1996 and has grown massively throughout 16 years to become the largest sever in the world and as for Wikipedia that began in 2000 which has become one of the world’s largest information sites in all languages around the world.
The future of these two search engines will most possibly bigger and more well known. Technology is advancing and Google and Wikipedia is too.

How TV has changed
The Advancing TV and Cable
TV and cable are evolving. We now have plasmas that take up half the space as a normal TV. We have cable TV that upgrades signal and channels so you can get the best out of your TV. Like I said it’s evolving. These new plasmas, they are now smart giving the ability to watch TV in HD or in 3D and basically use it as a laptop. Also cable, which gives you the ability to add more channels and have better quality TV. TV has come on massively since when it was first invented in 1873 when it was black and white and now when we have the 40 inch plasma TV in full colour in our living rooms. The first coloured television was made by a German research company called RCA, between 1946-1950 and was a huge monitor and a tiny screen. Now look at the world’s television. That shows the technology that has come into our world in the past years and shows the potential that we have for the future.

Impacts of social networking
The Impacts of Social Networking
The effects of social networking sites are now addictive.
Thousands of thousands of people rely on these networks for business debates/meetings
or the public just for a general chat.
Over 1 billion and still growing people are
signed up to Facebook and those people will most probably be lost without it
which makes it such a hotspot for advertisement. As a result of this, businesses
pay thousands to advertise on Facebook to the 1 billion people who are signed up to Facebook which which makes Mark
Zuckerberg a billionaire. The youngest one in the world.
