It has been announced that Facebook will be developing Mobile Ads in the coming weeks!

Here at Clicky Media we’re keeping a close eye on the development so we can offer these to our clients as soon as they’re released.

The advertising side of Facebook has proved to be very profitable, with a lot of users now accessing Facebook via their mobiles, the next natural step was advertising on the mobile formats of the site.

Whilst it is not yet clear exactly how these ads will be utilised by Facebook, we’re already very excited about the possibility of new ventures with Facebook.

Keep an eye on our blog for more information as the ads are developed!
