The Mobile Marketing Shift: How Big Is It Really?

Mobile Marketing | The Mobile Marketing Shift: How Big Is It Really? These days mobile is one of the biggest buzz words when it comes to online marketing, which begs the question, how big is it really?  As more and more people use their mobile devices to access the web, marketers are seeing a shift in traffic to their website from desktop to mobile.  So what does all of this really mean? 

Let’s start off by taking a look at some startling mobile statistics to get a better understanding of the impact this can have when it comes to online marketing.

  • Mobile traffic has more than doubled in 12 months, and now accounts for over 13% of all web traffic

  • 81% of people prefer mobile for convenience and speed

  • The US has 125.9mm smartphone users, with a 29% YOY growth rate

  • 83% of mobile searches occur when people are close to a computer

Pretty impressive statistics when you look at them together, and definitely worth considering when developing and updating your online marketing strategy.  Based on eMarketer.com research, advertising dollars spent on mobile are on pace to grow at an incredible rate, taking up an estimated 50% of total digital marketing budgets by the year 2017.
