Editor's Notes
- Recovering consultant – in the past worked for big brands These days more shorter projects for startups
- “ The Year of Mobile been called every year for last 5 years” However, 2009 really was a point at which a number of trends reached critical mass Halo effect of iphone – 3GS released by also others, including android – Big hero services like m.facebook.com – things that mainstream use
- The Casino sector is now leading the way As a result of the slow development of mobile commerce in other sectors, the major mainstream high-value mobile service category is casino gaming. The ability of mobile casinos to acquire users and take payment on device means that traffic from third parties is very easy to track and monetis
- But others are starting to follow the lead of the casino affiliate networks Firstly some specialist mobile internet affiliate markeitng networks have begun to emerge So people like Mobpartner which has … Sponsormob based in Berlin is a CPA-based ad network working on mobile Mobile revs is an adult-focused mboile affiliate network Also the big mainstream networks are getting in on the act Linkshare runs the iphone appstore affiliate program - Zaonox ,
- So just as affilaite networks on mobile is dffierent from the web it’s the same for the actual affiliates The things you do on the PC don’t necessarily work on mobile So that ranges from how you get traffic To analysitcs and campaign management
- Probably the biggest source of traffic is ad networks in absence of any scale in mobile search However, there’s well over 30 different networks – vary quite a bit First are the general or blind networks Cost per click varies massively depending on level of targeting and the country – can be as low as 1c per click and up to 30c per click Can target by country, handset, type of site – not specific sites Premium networks – some CPM advertising on there £2 to £20 Higher quality sites, brands Can specify day part, positioning etc Specialist Networks
- Operator portals and major names (e.g. MSN) v high CPM but good results Big names in media, online often don’t have a lot of mobile traffic Mobile sites and apps with lots of traffic aren’t often well known Also good opportunities for tenancy deals with some sites with high traffic GSMA Mobile Media Metrics will make it easier to identify high traffic mobile sites
