YouAppi has released research findings based on hundreds of mobile user acquisition campaigns in 2016, proving that native mobile user acquisition ads outperform, and more importantly, convert better than other mobile ad units.
Despite the challenges of customizing native ads to match the look and feel of the app or mobile web content in which they appear.
Despite the challenges of customizing native ads to match the look and feel of the app or mobile web content in which they appear.
Native advertising has been gaining traction among app marketers for the following reasons:
- Mobile app and web design has standardized and accepted design guidelines, for example the 1200 x 627 pixel image, making it possible to run the same creative across multiple apps and websites with minimal or no customization.
- The improved performance of native advertising has made app and mobile web publishers increasingly open to accepting them because of the greater revenue per ad unit they provide.
- The growth of content marketing has provided app marketers with more content which is ready for a native ad format.
The research, conducted from several hundred mobile user acquisition campaigns run for apps in 2016, showed that native user acquisition ads generated a 30-40% higher CTR than other mobile user acquisition campaigns run by YouAppi in 2016. More important, the conversion rates achieved by the native mobile user acquisition campaigns were double the conversion rates achieved by the other mobile user acquisition campaigns.
