Beyond The Walled Gardens: Why It’s Time For The Open Web

By Hector Almeida GM EMEA at Mintegral·2025年5月13日·5 分钟阅读

摘要

文章指出,广告业存在明显的预算错配:尽管美国消费者59%的在线时间花在开放互联网上,但广告主仅将48%的预算投入其中,而Meta、Google等封闭花园获得了52%的份额。然而,封闭花园正面临挑战:eMarketer数据显示其程序化支出份额在2023年首次下降。成本上升是主因之一——Business of Apps发现,2024年Facebook最低CPI为2美元,最高达5.5美元,而开放网络上的很多广告网络(如Mintegral)CPI可低于1美元。此外,苹果ATT框架限制了追踪能力,使封闭花园的定向和归因难度增加,成本上升。

开放互联网由数百万独立应用、广告网络、中介平台和供需方组成,提供了覆盖极其多样化的用户场景的广告库存。用户在不同应用间差异显著,而封闭花园内的用户则高度同质化。这使得开放网络能帮助广告主触达更广泛的、差异化的受众,获得竞争优势。机器学习的发展进一步拉平了战场:广告主可实时分析全量数据,在毫秒级内自动完成定向、出价和投放决策,并灵活选择优化目标(如CPI、CPE或ROAS),同时支持可玩广告、可购物视频、AR等丰富格式。

向开放网络迁移有三个关键考量:首先,生态系统碎片化,广告主需要适应多个不同平台的界面和规则;其次,规模化投放需要匹配的填充率支持,确保预算消耗与效果达标;最后,由于程序化购买跨多个平台,必须借助MMP(如Adjust、AppsFlyer)统一归因数据,但各MMP运作方式不同,增加了复杂性。文章建议寻求有经验的合作伙伴,以顺利进入这一新生态。

开放网络的早期采纳者已看到回报:游戏公司通过游戏内可玩广告吸引用户试玩后再下载;电商和非游戏广告主则利用数据算法实现精准细分、灵活定价,并采用可购物视频和AR等高效创意形式驱动转化。文章强调,当前率先拥抱开放互联网的品牌,最有可能捕获下一波数字增长红利。

How are LLMs transforming mobile user acquisition? | Adjust

LLMs like ChatGPT and Gemini are reshaping mobile app discovery, with traditional search volume expected to decline 25% by 2026. These AI platforms act as answer engines, delivering direct app recommendations to users. For ad ops, this shift requires optimizing for LLM visibility through structured content and reputation management. While native ad formats are in early testing on platforms like Perplexity and Gemini, early adoption can secure high-intent placements.

Marketing attribution: what it is and how to measure it

Marketing attribution is critical for connecting spend to revenue, but platform self-reporting and last-click bias distort budget decisions. Single-touch models (first/last-click) are simple but miss the full journey; multi-touch models (position-based, data-driven) are more accurate but require robust data. Mobile attribution is particularly challenging due to ATT, SKAdNetwork, and cross-platform gaps, necessitating a mobile measurement partner (MMP) for independent, deduplicated measurement. Clean attribution data is essential for AI-driven optimization—bad signals lead to bad decisions. Starting with position-based attribution and incrementality testing provides a practical foundation.
