AdMob has been reporting mobile Internet usage since September 2007 and they’ve seen a massive 1-year growth. The reports are based on the number of requested ad impressions from their 6,000 publishers. What is incredible on a Canadian front is that we finally cracked the top 15 with 30,846,195 requested impressions! Right behind Australia and in front of Kenya.
This can most likely be attributed to the release and popularity of the Apple iPhone
Some AdMob Highlights from the past 12 months:
– The number of monthly ad requests in the AdMob network tripled over the past 12 months from 1.6 billion in September 2007 to 5.1 billion in September 2008.
