Over the past few years, many brands have heavily relied on SEM (paid search and digital advertising)<\/strong> as their main engine for traffic and conversions. But shifts in user behavior and rising platform costs have raised a critical question: Is more spending still delivering better results?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Rising Costs, Lower Returns<\/h2>\n

According to Skai.io<\/em>, the average CPM on Meta increased by 17%<\/strong> between 2023 and 2024.

Meanwhile, click-through rates are declining\u2014a clear sign that performance isn’t keeping pace with spend.<\/p>\n

But the real issue isn\u2019t just financial\u2014it\u2019s structural.<\/p>\n

Welcome to the Age of Fragmented Attention<\/h2>\n

In 2024, the average person sees over 6,000 digital ads per day<\/strong> (Forbes<\/em>).
On platforms like TikTok and Instagram Reels, attention spans have dropped below 2 seconds per post<\/strong> (Meta IQ<\/em>).
And in Latin America, 47% of users<\/strong> say they feel overexposed to the same ads repeating over and over (Kantar LATAM 2024<\/em>).<\/p>\n
