A Scorching Spring for Sporting Events, Streaming Apps, and Digital Ad Spend

2026年7月9日·4 分钟阅读

摘要

2026年春季,流媒体平台竞相投入体育直播,带动用户活跃度显著提升。Peacock的超级碗直播带来年内最高DAU峰值,世界杯开赛使其DAU环比增长53.8%;Fox One的英文转播在世界杯期间DAU飙升超1,900%。Paramount+借助UFC赛事创下DAU新高,环比增长196%,Apple TV凭借F1转播在赛季首周末实现年内DAU峰值,并维持每场比赛日的增长。Netflix虽用户基数庞大,但直播的Rhonda Rousey对战Gina Carano比赛仅17秒结束,未能带来显著DAU提升,其BTS演唱会虽属娱乐性质,却成为年内DAU最高点。

为驱动用户获取与赛事曝光,平台显著加大广告投放。2026年2月至6月,Apple TV将2.8%的美国总广告预算投入F1相关广告,主要集中在赛季前;Peacock同期对MLB、NBA和世界杯的广告预算占比分别为2.2%、5.1%和5.4%。而Paramount+与Fox Sports更为激进:Paramount+将20.6%的预算用于UFC 250宣传,Fox Sports则将48%的预算投入世界杯相关广告。这显示体育赛事成为平台短期用户增长与品牌曝光的核心抓手。

对于广告主而言,体育直播的高收视率意味着高质量曝光机会,但受众画像的差异化决定了投放策略的精准性。Sensor Tower数据显示,Peacock用户中“体育迷”人群(高频使用体育APP)占比是普通用户的488%,“博彩者”人群占比高239%,但用户群体54.2%为女性;Apple TV与Fox Sports用户同样高度集中于体育与博彩画像,但男性占比分别达64.1%和83.9%。Netflix则不同,用户画像以“球鞋爱好者”和“电影观众”为主,女性占56.8%,博彩人群未进入前25,表明其体育用户基础薄弱。广告主需根据平台受众特征差异化投放,例如在Peacock触达女性体育迷,在Fox Sports聚焦男性核心群体。

展望未来,随着夏季奥运会临近,体育直播将进一步推高流媒体平台的数据表现。Netflix已转变态度,从拒绝体育直播到积极竞标赛事版权,印证了体育内容在用户获取、广告变现和品牌合作中的战略价值。平台需平衡版权成本与广告收入,而广告主则应把握体育赛事带来的增量流量,通过归因分析与受众洞察实现投放效率最大化。

分析师点评

这篇文章的核心信号在于,体育直播正成为流媒体平台用户增长和广告收入的双引擎,但平台间的用户画像差异显著,直接影响广告投放策略。值得关注的是,Fox和Paramount+将极高比例(48%和20.6%)的广告预算集中在单一赛事,反映出在有限预算下,体育赛事已成为确定性高的获客场景。而Peacock和Apple TV的均衡投放则体现不同策略。

对于UA经理而言,关键洞察在于用户性别、兴趣标签与赛事匹配度:女性主导平台(Peacock、Netflix)若引入男性向赛事,需谨慎评估用户接受度;反之亦然。结合CTV广告持续渗透的背景,体育直播的广告库存正成为品牌争夺的稀缺资源,但变现团队需注意不同平台用户对广告的耐受度差异,避免高预算低转化。

The World Cup audience doesn’t disappear during halftime. It picks up a phone.

World Cup data from Liftoff's SSP shows ad impressions in sports scoring apps nearly doubled (+90%) and unique audience grew ~40% during the tournament, highlighting massive second-screen engagement. BeSoccer reported DAU +63% and visits +128%. Despite high attention, mobile ad investment ($0.07/user hour) lags far behind TV ($0.38). For ad ops, the key insight is to plan multi-screen campaigns that complement TV with premium in-app inventory during live moments, capturing intentional attention where fans actively seek scores, stats, and highlights.

TikTok Ads is courting new advertisers with tiered ad credits (spend $100/$500/$1500, get same in credit) plus expert support for the top tier, but credits expire by end of 2023. Decision-makers should note strict eligibility: only self-serve SMB accounts, no agency-created or TikTok Shop accounts, one account per business, and a 30-day spend window. Research from Circana, GroupM/KIKO, and Samba TV indicates TikTok often outperforms traditional attribution models. Salesforce CRM integration and Canva creative tools reduce friction, while quarterly safety reports strengthen brand protection. Overall, incentivized testing, robust measurement, and enhanced integrations make TikTok a viable paid social channel for SMBs.
