New Data
Takes Deep Look at Performance of Advertising on Android Devices
CAMBRIDGE,
Mass. -- New data from Jumptap, the leader in targeted mobile advertising,
shows that consumers in the South and Southwest tend to be Android-biased
compared to the rest of the country, while those in the Midwest and Northeast
lean towards iOS. California, Texas and Florida over-index for Android use and
states in New England and the Midwest over-index for iOS use. Blackberry use,
which over-indexed in New York, was also included in the geographic data. This
new data establishes an evolving narrative of a North vs. South divide in the ongoing
battle of the two top mobile operating systems.
The results
are revealed as part of Jumptap's monthly data report, Mobile STAT (Simple
Targeting & Audience Trends), which is based on data for the first half of
2011 from the over 83 million unique users on the Jumptap mobile ad network.
The report also showed that Android continues to hold the top spot in terms of
overall share (with iOS coming in a close second), but that iOS ads continue to
outperform ads on other operating systems.
"Our
advertisers are requesting the most granular data available on mobile users so
they can create the most targeted campaigns," said Paran Johar, Chief
Marketing Officer for Jumptap. "This new data reveals some interesting
patterns for advertisers to consider when targeting consumers using Android
devices vs. iOS devices."
The STAT
report also examines the ad performance on Android devices in new dimensions,
breaking out ad performance by both manufacturer and carrier. The manufacturer
analysis showed that Sony Ericsson devices are the only Android devices with ad
performance nearing that of iOS devices. Ads running on Sony Ericsson devices
in the first half of 2011 averaged a .54% click-through rate, making it the
only Android manufacturer above the industry average of .52%, but still not as
high as iOS devices at .78%.
