Tapjoy Named Highest-Rated Mobile Ad Network Honor in VentureBeat's 2014 Mobile Advertising Index
Tapjoy Also Named One of the Easiest Mobile Ad Networks to Install and Deploy in
Latest Industry Survey
SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 28, 2014 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Tapjoy, Inc., a leading mobile
ad-tech and monetization platform, was the "highest-rated mobile ad network" in
an independent survey conducted by the technology news outlet VentureBeat. The
newly released VentureBeat Mobile Ad Index was based on thousands of survey
responses from VentureBeat readers and analyzes the performance, functionality,
ease-of-use, installation process, customer support and other attributes of
today's leading mobile networks and platforms.
Tapjoy was the only company among those listed to receive a perfect score to the
question, "On a scale of 1-10, how well does your platform serve its intended
purpose?" The company was also named one of the easiest mobile ad networks to
install and deploy, and when asked whether they would recommend the Tapjoy
platform to a friend, 100% of respondents shared that they would recommend
Tapjoy. The survey also reveals information related to current trends in mobile
advertising, such as advertiser's use of cookies in retargeting, where they
typically send their ad clicks, and how they build their creative.
"To be named the highest-rated mobile ad network, particularly with so much
innovation taking place in the sector by so many great companies, is quite an
honor," said Steve Wadsworth, CEO of Tapjoy. "This accolade is a testament to
our recent platform enhancements as well as to our customer-centric approach. It
is made especially sweet because it was an acknowledgement from the industry,
including our peers and partners."
"Every Tapjoy user who answered our survey was happy with how well the Tapjoy
platform worked," said Matt Marshall. "Tapjoy was the only mobile ad platform to
receive a perfect score in that regard."
Tapjoy's recognition by VentureBeat readers comes during a period of rapid
growth and innovation for the company, which launched new rich media and video
advertising solutions last fall and continues to sign up new, noteworthy brand
advertisers and publishing partners. Recently, the company also won the 2013 ME
Award from Mobile Entertainment for the "Best Games Monetization Service," as
well as the prestigious 2013 iResearch Marketing Award for "Best Mobile
Application Recommendation and Advertising Platform."
