Description

Location-based advertising (LBA) is on the cutting edge of technological innovation.

This study defines LBA and examines the strengths, weaknesses, threats and opportunities. The SWOT analysis showed innovation and expansion of location-based advertising and established that the strengths and opportunities far outweighed the weaknesses and threats. However, the concern for privacy is a constant throughout all discussions of LBA.
