YouAppi: Native App User Acquisition Ads Outperform & Out Convert Other Mobile Ad Units

YouAppi, a leading mobile growth marketing platform for premium mobile brands, is announcing research based on hundreds of mobile user acquisition campaigns in 2016 proving that native mobile user acquisition ads outperform, and more importantly, convert better than other mobile ad units.

Despite the challenges of customizing native ads to match the look and feel of the app or mobile web content in which they appear, native advertising has been gaining traction among app marketers for the following reasons. First, mobile app and web design has standardized and accepted design guidelines, for example the 1200 x 627 pixel image, making it possible to run the same creative across multiple apps and websites with minimal or no customization. Second, the improved performance of native advertising has made app and mobile web publishers increasingly open to accepting them because of the greater revenue per ad unit they provide. Third, the growth of content marketing has provided app marketers with more content which is ready for a native ad format.

“Over the last three years, we’ve seen a tremendous increase in the acceptance of native ads on the part of publishers, while our app marketing clients can now run the same or moderately customized creative ad units across tens of apps and mobile websites,” said Julie Ben-Nun, Vice President Media Management at YouAppi.

The research from YouAppi, conducted from several hundred mobile user acquisition campaigns run for apps in 2016, showed that native user acquisition ads generated a 30-40% higher CTR than other mobile user acquisition campaigns run by YouAppi in 2016. More important, the conversion rates achieved by the native mobile user acquisition campaigns were double the conversion rates achieved by the other mobile user acquisition campaigns.

“Native ads are providing a win-win opportunity for all players in the mobile eco-system,” said Leo Giel, YouAppi’s CRO. “Mobile apps and publishers are generating more revenue thanks to higher engagement rates and cost per action, while app marketers are also benefitting from better conversion rates.”

YouAppi’s matching technology – leveraging three years of historical data and a pool of 1.5 billion mobile profiles – matches the right app to the right user. The company’s media management team utilizes the power of the company’s OneRun Platform to understand the client KPIs, optimizing each campaign to ensure that clients pay the right price for the right conversion.
