Mobile Advertising | Getting Started with Mobile Affiliate Marketing
I have been learning mobile advertising from two courses. Cell Phone Treasure by Adam Horwitz and Confidential Conversions by Phillip Mansour. Both are very good courses and I really do believe you should look into making cell phones a part of your marketing strategy.
Two of the companies that were mentioned were Admob and Admoda. Admob was highly recommended and was recently purchased by Google. Admod is really easy to use, but don’t try to link to a site with video. The one problem I have been finding is my ads get disapproved because Admob says the site isn’t mobile friendly so to speak.
Now I’m new to Mobile advertising, so I’m learning what mobile appropriate sites should be like. Seems to be plain text sales pages with no videos, or a .mobi site that is created for cell phones.
I have been researching on how to build mobile sites. I will have one ready to display on my blog here in a week or two. I really believe affiliate marketers should be considering this marketing strategy, since there is more mobile cell phone users than internet users and everyone has their cell phone most of the time. Also more and more cell phones or smart phones, have internet capabilities.
Right now advertising on cell phones is fairly cheap, but as more businesses and marketers find out about this advertising medium, I’m sure prices will increase so get educated now.
You can target your market to male or female, by age, by country, by regional area. If you are a small business owner you can set your ads up so you are called when someone clicks your ad. There are several ways to set and target your niche or customer base.
Admob is a little cheaper to get started with than Admoda. Admob is $50.00 to get your account started and Admoda is around $150.00 to $200.00. Admoda is from the UK so it is based on the British pound.
