3. Vertical screen and vertical content - an important aspect of Mobile

People spend 29% of screen time daily looking at the screens of their smartphones. 5 years ago, the cost of such time on vertical screens was only 5% of the total number of views.



You can use a mobile or responsive landing page to get vertical ads.

But the video is a completely different story. Today we are playing a standard horizontal video with large black bars at the top and bottom on the mobile’s vertical screen. Turning the phone in the correct orientation is not always convenient and too troublesome. Oddly enough, after eight years of vertical mobile viewing, after half of all Youtube views are on smartphones, we still continue to create desktop-oriented videos.

This is very important, but many still do not know what a huge impact this factor has on the success of advertising. Vertical mobile video ads are nine times higher than full video viewing versus horizontal.

The demand for vertical video and content is increasing in proportion to the growing number of smartphone users. This changes our usual way of watching videos. So video advertising should follow these trends.
