Comments on: Google: two clicks a charm to eliminate accidental mobile ad visits http://gigaom.com/2012/12/13/google-two-clicks-a-charm-to-eliminate-accidental-mobile-ad-visits/ Wed, 19 Jun 2013 23:38:37 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.com/ By: Jim Meyers http://gigaom.com/2012/12/13/google-two-clicks-a-charm-to-eliminate-accidental-mobile-ad-visits/#comment-1262063 Mon, 17 Dec 2012 06:12:53 +0000 http://gigaom.com/?p=593971#comment-1262063 Not to be cruel, but I think it’s hilarious when I read concerns that this effort is going to result in a smaller bottom line for some mobile advertisers. I can’t help but laugh and think that, man, if your biggest hope is accidental clicks, something is wrong about your approach to this business :) I think accidental clicks are going to continue fading away, but mostly as a result of innovations in the mobile ad sector – like the diverse new ad formats that Airpush (www.airpush.com) and others are introducing. It’s a new world out there- one that’s much too sophisticated for “accidental clicks” to remain a problem in 2013 and beyond.

I’m not sure anyone has cracked the code on mobile, but this seems a step in the right direction.

No offense to those who make money on their site ads, but I’ve never clicked through a banner ad on any site, even if it’s a huge company actual company like Coke, let alone some blog…
