Google (NASDAQ:GOOGL) (GOOG) and Facebook (NASDAQ:FB) reported strong earnings which showed an increase in ad spend and rates. Shutterstock (NYSE:SSTK), Travelzoo (TZOO), and Brightcove (BCOV) are 3 online advertising stocks that will also benefit. .So far, this earnings season has been quite strong. As of Wednesday, 84% of S&P 500 companies had topped EPS estimates, while 74% beat revenue estimates. This is despite analysts hiking estimates over the past month.
