Online advertising: a targeted approach through targeting

Today, practically everyone in Switzerland is online - at home on their tablet or smart TV, at work and, of course, on the move via smartphone. We look for jobs and apartments on online portals, cook online recipes and sell second-hand goods via online exchanges. And this is precisely the strength of online advertising: your advertising message has a wide reach and, thanks to targeting, you can reach the people you want where you expect to have the greatest advertising impact.
