Technological Innovations Driving Mobile Advertising
Technological advancements have transformed the landscape of mobile advertising by offering granular targeting and real-time analytics. Innovations such as location-based targeting, native ad formats, and multimedia integration enable advertisers to deliver personalized and engaging content directly to consumers’ mobile devices. For example, Chioma Ifeoma Agbasimelo (2023) highlights how data from mobile technology is used to design forecasting models that enhance ad effectiveness. Furthermore, platforms like Facebook, Twitter, and YouTube provide sophisticated analytic tools that help marketers track ad performance, adjust targeting strategies, and optimize campaigns for better engagement.Register to attend the Connect Nigeria Business Mixer
Understanding Consumer Behavior in Mobile Advertising
The effectiveness of mobile advertising in Nigeria is largely influenced by consumer behavior and interaction with mobile content. Research indicates that Nigerian consumers spend significant time on their smartphones, often accessing social media, shopping online, and engaging with digital content. Studies have found that mobile ads yield high open rates (up to 98% for SMS messages, compared to much lower rates for email) and are particularly effective in driving immediate action. Additionally, behavioral factors such as perceived intrusiveness and ad irritation affect consumer response. For instance, research by Baek and Morimoto (2012) and Edwards, Li, and Lee (2002) demonstrates that high engagement levels with visually appealing and well-timed mobile ads can mitigate these negative perceptions and improve overall ad performance.Sign up for the Connect Nigeria daily newsletter

Current trends indicate that investment in mobile ad technologies and innovative platforms will likely increase, driven by the widespread adoption of smartphones and emerging mobile ecosystems.
