Mobile marketing is a major issue for advertisers in the years to come. According to a recent study by Nielsen Mobile USA, the 258 million mobile customers, 76.8 million subscribers have viewed mobile advertising, an increase of 81% compared with 2007.

While volumetric seem to be at the rendezvous, the actual frequency of access to advertising, however, appears much less significant, since 63% of U.S. mobile users have not seen once a month or less.

Curbs on massive investment advertisers

In his study, Nielsen Mobile has identified three obstacles essential to the growth of mobile marketing:

* Mistrust vis-à-vis the real involvement of consumers. Advertisers still doubt the readiness of consumers and believe that market (regulated, mobile operators) are not able to offer reliable and relevant assessment campaigns.

Given these considerations, we immediately understand that the audience measurement of web-Mobile is now a prerequisite for the brands invest heavily in mobile marketing. Indeed, to have reliable tools will finally make comparisons with other media and would also offer new opportunities for monetization of mobile sites.

An ecosystem which is progressing in a disorganized

However, the indicators currently defined for the Web by the IAB are not yet in place on mobile.

Finally, mobile operators, saying the intensity of competition, are extremely reluctant to provide information on the performance of campaigns.
