19. The Mobile Web is Still Alive and Well
• The Problem
– Users don’t bookmark sites on mobile
browsers
– Clicking a CPC ad sends a user to a site
once
– Clicking URL in a text message sends
the user to a site once
– But they don’t necessarily return
• The Solution
– People like to push buttons
– Convert mobile sites into apps, i.e.
buttons bookmarked on the phone
screen
– Developer uploads Mobile Site URL.
– GetJar free Mobile Site Shortcut is
built in Java, Android, Blackberry,
WinMo, and Symbian and posted on
GetJar for download
– Result: Mobile Sites have reach and
repeat like apps

21. Overcome Device Fragmentation with Conversion API
• The Problem • The Solution
– Developers spend money – Call the GetJar Conversion
promoting apps that don’t API from the app to track
convert to active users the success of app
installation
– Android will become
fragmented like other – Developers can focus
Operating Systems, marketing budget on
requiring developers to devices that convert, and
build different versions of fix devices that don’t
their app for different convert
implementations of Android – The conversion API is not
designed to replace app
performance analytics like
Flurry, rather to focus on
conversion analytics
