Top 8 Things To Know About Mobile
1) The first and most important thing to know about mobile and why it?s become so significant is?MOBILE BILLING
2) Mobile billing is governed completely by the mobile carriers?also know as the mobile operators.
3) Contrary to popular belief, the US is not an easy market to break into at all in the adult mobile space
4) Understanding the difference between mobile data traffic and WIFI traffic
o This is the internet as it is provided to you by your mobile carrier, which is typically included as part of a data plan of sorts o So for our purposes this is good for us to know because it is how the mobile carriers are able to effectively bill a user o The mobile carriers can detect the user?s mobile number just by simply accessing the content and billing pages via their data connection?which makes it quite easy for the mobile carriers to charge users accordingly on their mobile bill
o When a user is accessing the internet via a WIFI connection there is virtually no way for a mobile biller to know if the user is a mobile user or a desktop user
o Currently there are still WAY more than half the mobile users in most parts if the world who access much of their adult content and other types of mobile services through a WIFI connection
5) What are the advantages of providing a mobile experience to your users? (this point is more for site owners and/or webmasters)
6) Understanding the different MOBILE content delivery methods?which is increasingly similar to WEB content delivery.
o Doesn?t require storage space o Simplest user experience
o It is an option for feature phones that are not capable of supporting a streaming video o Can be delivered via Premium SMS 7) Understanding How to get your mobile traffic to the best monetization source of your choice?affiliate program, billing provider, etc.
8) There are three primary types of mobile devices which are: smart phones, tablets, and feature phones
o Bigger screens o More popular in Europe and North America
o Huge screen real estate

Lots of good advice. A lot of people don't realize how wifi and mobile data users differ.
But this is a bad idea, more and more: Quote:

Nice but you just tell people to basically redirect to your company. Pretty biased tutorial imo. Par for course thought.

Thanks guys...I'm glad some of you liked the article and hope you all can take something valuable away from it.
I know it came across a bit biased, but I just couldn't help it |

You're pretty much right...although it can be technical at times, it is generally a "political" move on the part of the carriers. However, in many cases it's with good reason...most carriers do care for their users and do what they can to protect them. It make things a little harder on companies like mine, but it's still very manageable.

The neat thing I've noticed with a lot of reports coming from Junier Research is that their mobile projections typically happen MUCH faster than they anticipate. The mobile space is becoming more and more significant and growing far more rapidly than we even imagine |

It has become totally possible to redirect traffic while maintaining within google's guidelines. We actually worked quite closely with them to ensure we did what we could keep things above the level...which was not easy However there are things that are being done by my company as well as other mobile companies just like mine which are allowing people to still benefit greatly from redirecting their mobile traffic while also keeping things cool with Google in terms of search-engine-friendliness. I could write about here, but I think I'll save it for another submission to the GFY Educational Series, lol! Please feel free to hit me up if it's something you want to hear more about, but by the sounds of things I think you have a pretty solid understanding already. In any case, thanks for the constructive feedback...and please keep it coming |

This was a good overview of mobile traffic, devices, etc, but it is NOT practical for th smaller company. Why?
"It akes a team to..." "very complicated..." etc etc. So in other words, if you don't know what you are doing, or cannot monitor this area of your biz full-time (or in real time) then you may be fucked. Gee thanks but no thanks. Plus, if we are talking allowing mobile to bill FULL JOINS (and NOT pay-per-minute, or trials, or special mobile pricing) then I would be all for it. But very few carriers will allow this. YES allow mobile to bill $29.95, NO if a carrier insists on billing per minute. So: once again, what works for the giant corporate BROS will not work for smaller companies.

However, in most cases in terms of billing is really not that bad. For what we do in with VOD, Tube, and dating is more on a weekly subscription model...averages between 5-10 <u>Euro</u> per week. These smaller weekly price points are nice because it lends itself to massive retention times...which is really one of the many big benefits of utilizing mobile billing. The carriers will allow us to charge higher, but it doesn't seem to work as well. You are completely right about there being some sort of "special mobile pricing" in most cases, but that's not a bad thing and there are ways to unify that for the web and mobile users to have a more uniform experience and a single login for both desktop and mobile. As I said, there are solutions out there...and they do need to be creative, but they work for the most part. If the bottom line is about increasing your revenues while trying to maintain some sort brand integrity of positive user experience then it is totally possible...just requires a bit more time and work. Porn Nerd, I'm not arguing your point at all...there was nothing you said that was incorrect...I am just simply stating that there are solutions for almost all big or small companies. Trust me when I say we work with some of the smallest and the biggest. The good thing is, with whichever mobile solution provider or affiliate program you choose to work with, you can always just test things out and move on if it doesn't workout. There are typically no up-front costs or commitments (unless you are a media buyer and needs to buy traffic from multiple sources). Anyways, I could ramble on forever about all this...so I'll shut up now Please don't hesitate to hit me up and I'd be happy to answer any questions you might have. I'm a total nerd about this stuff...so I'm absolutely happy to discuss it whether we ever do business together or not! |
