While mobile phones will be so popular, it is not clear whether mobile phones founded on cellular backhaul or smart phones supported Wi-Fi hot spot or WiMAX hot zone will also boost. Nevertheless, such is the materialization of this form of advertising, that there is now a devoted global awards ceremony organized annually by Visiongain.

Advertisers in many markets all over the world have lately rushed into mobile advertising industry. In Spain 3 of 4 mobile phone holders receive ads, in France 62% and in Japan over 50% and 44% click on ads they receive.

Presently, most mobile advertising is aimed at mobile phones, that came creditably to a global total of 4 billion in 2008.
