Report: Web story formats are driving publisher monetization

The social media story format has been key in growing audience and revenue in recent years, and publishers and advertisers are taking note. Web stories are a mobile-first, vertical, multimedia approach to presenting articles. The format allows users to experience a story by tapping content that includes images, video, audio, animations and text.
