Mobile app advertising refers to a monetizing strategy that enables advertisers to promote their products and services on smartphone applications. The mobile app requests an advertisement from the network, which uses an algorithm to identify and deliver the most suitable advertisement to the user in real-time.
Some of the commonly used in-app advertisement formats include banners, interstitials, video units and rich media ads. In comparison to the traditional advertisements, in-app ads are more user friendly, can be customized according to the user's requirements and offer advanced location targeting features that improve consumer engagement and retention.
Easy accessibility to high-speed internet and the increasing utilization of smartphones and tablets are among the key factors driving the growth of the market. In recent years, the amount of information utilized through the applications installed in smartphones has significantly increased. Manufacturers and service providers promote their products through innovative video ads to reach a broader consumer base and generate quality leads.
Furthermore, extensive utilization of mobile applications to access social media, along with the advent of online gaming, is facilitating the market growth. In-app advertisers use ad space available in mobile-based online games to promote their products, while offering rewards, extended game time and other benefits.
Additionally, the implementation of location-based technology to track customers and advertise personalized content is acting as another growth-inducing factor. Advertisers can monitor the consumer's location and their preferences to provide useful recommendations about the products and services available nearby. Other factors, including the penetration of broadband services and rapid urbanization, especially in the developing economies, are expected to drive the market further.
