Copyright 2013 Internet Marketing Grind LLC Foreword Dear Mobile Marketers, I'll be upfront and straight to the point here. If you have not read our Mobile Marketing Guide, you will likely be completely lost here. I wrote the Mobile Marketing Guide this year to share the knowledge and experience I've learned in mobile marketing. It's 189 pages long and there is no other guide like it in the world. It's generated millions of dollars for mobile affiliate marketers. Since the release of the mobile marketing guide, our Mobile CPA Network, Revived Media is now producing over 2,000,000+ Million monthly mobile leads and recently we crossed the 1,000,000+ Million monthly app installs mark.

Mobile Advertising To be blunt, I don't want to spend a bunch of time explaining what mobile advertising is. As I've already said (numerous) times, you should have read the mobile marketing guide because I've already covered it. But... What you need to know is this. When I refer to the term “mobile publisher” throughout this guide, it could mean 1 of 2 things. There are two types of “mobile publishers.” 1. Mobile Websites – These are mobile publishers whom run mobile ads on their websites. They are also referred to as “WAP Publishers.” 2. Mobile Apps – These are mobile publisher whom run mobile ads within their mobile apps. Also referred to as “APP Developers.” It's important that you know and understand the two. The reason being is because there are two standards types of mobile advertising options available. On-Device However, in these two types of mobile advertising options, there are MANY WAYS TO ADVERTISE. These are called Mobile Ad Types and are often referred to as Mobile Ad Units 1. On-Device Mobile Advertising – Also referred to as On-Deck. 2. Off-Device Mobile Advertising – Also referred to as Off-Deck. On-Device Mobile Display Advertising - On-device display ads take forms that have immediate analogs on the PC-based Internet, and include formats such as: ➢ Text ads (either static or clickable) ➢ Graphical banners (either static or clickable) ➢ Graphical banners with associated text links ➢ Video preroll ➢ Traditional TV Commercials at standard lengths Outside of mobile video ads, these formats are generally clickable or otherwise interactive, as with ads on the PC-based Internet. However, the results of a “click” can range beyond just taking the viewer to a landing page, and include initiating a text message or call, depending on the capabilities of the device being used. On-device display ads can serve the same spectrum of functions as display ads on PCs, ranging from pure brand building to pure direct response. Off-Device Mobile Display Advertising - In addition to delivering display advertising on the device itself, mobile interactivity is uniquely able to activate traditional offline advertising (e.g., outdoor, live event, television, etc.), or even PC-based ads, with an interactive, measurable call-to-action via SMS, MMS and/or WAP push. Mobile display advertising generally takes two major forms: display ads delivered on the device itself (within a mobile Web browser or some other phone-based application), or display ads in other media that feature a mobile call-to-action (typically sending a message via text messaging shortcode). Advertisers tapping into mobile interactivity for offline display media view the mobile phone as a “mobile mouse” allowing the consumer to self select and activate traditional media and drive a new interactive channel. Examples of this “offline interactive” capability include: ➢ Mobile coupons to help drive to POS ➢ Mobile PINs to help drive to Web ➢ Mobile ticketing to help drive to an event ➢ Mobile option to onward-going CRM It's critical you understand these basics of mobile advertising because mobile ad networks differ in the types of advertising they provide. The mobile ecosystem has a diverse array of intermediaries that all have a role in delivering a marketer’s message to its intended audience. The easy way to explain this is to actually show you a visual from the IAB: Mobile display ads and sponsorships are sold using pricing models that are familiar to anyone who has bought advertising on the PC-based Web. Depending on the publisher, carrier, or ad network, advertisers can make mobile ad buys in any of the following three main ways: CPM (Cost per Thousand Impressions): Buying based on impressions delivere. CPC (Cost per Click): Buying based on the number of viewers who click on the ad.
