Introduction and Overview

This research service builds on the information presented in the study conducted in 2010

entitled "U.S. Mobile Advertising and Search Market." Although it amends and updates the

information and data points, the study itself presents a complete picture of the market and

highlights the market changes. New emerging solutions as well as business models within the

mobile advertising ecosystem are also discussed. Throughout this study, the words "adver-

tising" and "ad"; "applications" and "app"; and "mobile Internet," "mobile web," and

"WAP" are used interchangeably.

Mobile advertising is the actual process of describing or presenting a product, a service, an

idea, or an organization through mobile communication channels to induce mobile

subscribers to buy, interact, or support the item being advertised.

Market Segmentation

Frost & Sullivan presents an analysis of the following mobile advertising channels across the

on-deck and off-deck mobile ecosystems in this research service:

■ Mobile messaging-based advertising

■ Mobile Internet-based advertising

■ Mobile video advertising

■ In-application mobile advertising

■ Mobile search and performance based advertising

in 2010.

Advertising in these mobile channels could be served by ad networks, ad exchanges, and ad

mediators, or by publishers themselves (with help of white-label mobile advertising plat-

forms). All these possibilities have been considered in the market forecasts.

Key Findings and Conclusions

Next-generation wireless devices such as Smartphones and tablets continue to drive the U.S.

mobile advertising and search markets. Improved targeting capabilities, advanced ad

rendering capabilities, large amounts of inventory, and strong developer interest in leveraging

mobile advertising for monetization of their applications are some of the key reasons for the

continued adoption of mobile advertising on these new device platforms.

Mobile web and mobile applications are the prime inventories for mobile advertising, with a

large majority of ad spend generated by these two advertising channels. Both branding and

performance-based advertising continue to perform well within the mobile web and mobile

applications channels. However, branding campaigns executed within the application channel

continue to outnumber the branding campaigns served within the mobile Internet in the U.S.

mobile advertising and search market.

Mobile video ads have emerged as one of the fastest growing industry segments. Mobile

video ads can be served within both video and non-video data environments in mobile. As

such, a large majority of video ads in mobile are served within non-video data channels (for

example, a news application). Pricing-per-impression remains the main pricing mechanism

for mobile video ads.

Leading industry participants are collaborating to develop and promote a standardized

framework for rich media mobile advertising. Open Rich Media Mobile Advertising

(ORMMA), Mobile Rich Media Ad Interface Definitions (MRAID), Digital Video Ad Serving

Template (VAST), and Digital Video Player-Ad Interface Definition (VPAID) are the leading

ad standard specification and implementations for rich media and mobile video advertising.

Frost & Sullivan believes that a well-designed and popular rich media ad specification could

be one of the most important drivers of mobile advertising in the United States in the coming

years.

All leading mobile operators have established broad mobile advertising programs for on-deck

properties. Mobile operators aspire to leverage the subscriber information and insights into

data usage patterns to enable targeted mobile advertising - both within their own content

offerings, as well as within the data channels and inventory of their strategic partners.

In 2017, mobile advertising revenues in the United States are expected to reach

$x,xxx.x million. This is more than xxx percent growth over 2010 figures of around

$xxxx.xmillion. It can be argued that rapid penetration of connected tablets and other

connected display devices could actually increase the market size much beyond the Frost &

Sullivan forecasts. However, falling mobile advertising rates, excess inventory, and elimina-

tion of the distinction between online and mobile advertising spending and ad serving

mechanisms could mean that the market revenues may not grow in line with the adoption of

Smartphones and tablets. In other words, a trend of revenue divergence between inventory

and mobile advertising spending will be increasingly seen in the U.S. mobile advertising and

search markets.

From a channel perspective, performance-based advertising, mobile Internet branding, and

in-application mobile advertising are expected to be the three largest contributors to mobile

advertising. In-application advertising revenues include both display and performance mobile

advertising, which increases the bucket of performance mobile advertising in the

United States.
