Shift to ROI-Focused Ad Spending
AppsFlyer has observed a significant shift in advertising budget allocation, with a 20% year-over-year reduction in ad spend for app activations. This trend indicates a move from growth-centric strategies to profitability-focused ones. Advertisers are now prioritizing strategic spending to enhance ROI. The Open Internet, underutilized despite increased consumer engagement, offers cost-effective opportunities. Platforms like Mintegral, known for their less competitive and cost-efficient traffic, are becoming increasingly attractive for developers’ advertising budgets.
