iPhone and Online Advertising

According to a recent study by online advertising, the Apple’s iPhone has ranked as the worst smartphone for mobile advertising. In September from the 92 million online marketing impressions monitored, the iPhone had the poorest clickthrough rate.

The Apple’s iPhone is currently used by 66% of the mobile browsing market and the clickthrough rate is 0.30%, which means that all ads seen on iPhone are usually ignored.

Mr. Stuart Dredge disagree with the way the research was presented to the media and he commented for the Mobile Entertainment about the iPhone and the mobile advertising industry that:” A better headline for the research might be “mobile and iPhone users not so keen on ads designed for desktop browsers as people using desktop browsers.”

The Apple’s iPhone is still the number one smartphone purchased in the U.S and around the world.
