Editor's Notes
- #6: For Big Box Retailers: Mobile Queries are 12% of Total Search Traffic Today*, compared to 5%a Year Ago
- #7: Mobile searches mostly incremental to desktopDaily: Mobile searches/use starts & ends the day…and slight uptick during lunchtimeWeekly: Mobile searches higher than desktop on the weekends
- #9: marketers have an exciting opportunity on their hands with mobile. that's because mobile offers unique advantages as a marketing channel for both brand advertisers and DR.smartphones now allow users to interact with devices in new & exciting ways -- larger screens, touch sensitive screens, all set the stage for immersive, touch-based interactions as we'll see in examples later on. these new interactions are translating into success for branding campaigns as we'll touch upon soon as well. On the direct response side, we’re seeing advertisers see enhanced conversion rates by tapping into mobile specific capabilities such as click-to-call ads.another unique aspect of mobile is that when people search for info from their phones, we know that 1 of 3 searches are local in nature. and that makes sense since users are on the go with their mobile devices. as we'll see in examples later on, the tendency toward local searches represents a powerful direct response opportunity for advertisers to connect with nearby or on-the-go customers who tend to be last-minute buyersfinally mobile phones have a unique advantage of always being with the consumer. we've seen mobile activity remain steady throughout the day whereas desktop PC, TV, print activity have their respective peaks and valleys throughout the day & week. the always on aspect of mobile is another exciting and unique opportunity for marketers
- #13: Make sure your ads & site focus on the local information consumers seek
- #19: Plan the work and work the Plan
- #22: Navigate to what level you would like to set targeting toHowever, keeping mobile and desktop campaigns separate is still the best practice
