Advertisers are gravitating towards more stable platforms like Pinterest, which saw a notable 120% CPM increase, as well as Meta, YouTube Shorts, and Snapchat. Despite advertisers pulling back, TikTok maintains a strong user engagement, retaining 90% of its traffic even during a brief ban period, highlighting its continued potential as an effective marketing channel.
