Flirtomatic, which is a mobile and online flirting service, has announced it’s billionth mobile ad has been served – crumbs!
This staggering stat has apparently come to pass in less than 1 year – growth per quarter has been running at over 30%, which probably goes to explain some of it! As MobiAd News points out “…This is yet another sign that mobile social networks are developing into a serious source of mobile ad inventory.”
According to Flirtomatic, big names have placed ads through them, including: O2 (NYSE: TEF), Orange, Vodafone (NYSE: VOD), Yahoo, Samsung and MSN. Flirtomatic also offered some of the advertisers where it would design a click-through page for them, on which they could offer products and services, as it found not all of them had microsites of their own.
For me, this just reinforces the power of Mobile Ads – watch this space, this sector of the industry is going to go stellar, especially as more of the Operators look for alternative revenue streams…
