The iPhone effect: will it work its magic on mobile advertising?
Opinion piece by Eden Zoller, principal analyst at Ovum
It is not just the iPhone platform that is attractive to advertisers
The iPhone and devices that are following in its wake provide the best platform
yet for enabling mobile advertising because they are optimised for rich media
applications like video and also provide a genuinely good mobile browsing
experience. This means the potential for better, more creative mobile
advertising campaigns and of course a more engaging user experience. Another big
plus for advertising on the iPhone is the kind of people that own them. Comscore
recently released data about iPhone application users that suggests they are a
particularly attractive demographic for advertisers, with higher than average
incomes and higher than average engagement with online media. More than half
(54%) of app users are in households with incomes greater than $75,000 per year.
Engagement with online retail scored particularly highly, which suggests they
could be open to mobile commerce that by its nature has a strong affinity with
mobile advertising.
