OREM, UT, Jul 23 (MARKET WIRE) --
Omniture, Inc. (NASDAQ: OMTR), a leading provider of online business
optimization software, today announced the latest version of Omniture
SiteCatalyst(R) that advances mobile analytics capabilities businesses
need to increase the performance of mobile marketing campaigns.
While mobile Internet usage is seeing rapid growth throughout the world,
marketers have been limited in their ability to understand and reach this
expanding audience. Omniture's mobile analytics provides business insight
to optimize mobile site design, content, marketing campaigns and user
experience for the mobile Internet visitor based on attributes such as
their device type, location, video and audio formats. As a result, mobile
marketers can provide a better experience -- driving loyalty, brand and
conversion.
"More than ever before, consumers are using mobile Internet devices for
shopping, banking, travel, news and entertainment," said Bob Nieme, CEO of
Adversitement, one of the Netherlands' leading e-marketing optimization
consultancies with more than 150 clients. "We are actively consulting
with our clients to seize the growing mobile Internet opportunity. By
using mobile analytics to know and understand what mobile audiences want,
our clients can optimize their customers' online experience."
According to mobile industry research, worldwide shipments of smartphones
are expected to grow from 164.7 million units in 2008 to 363.2 million
units in 2012 (IDC, "Worldwide Converged Mobile Device," Doc # 212932,
June 2008). Research firm Gartner expects worldwide mobile advertising
spending to increase from $1.7 billion in 2007 to $12.8 billion in 2011
("Dataquest Insight: How to Move the Mobile Advertising Market Forward,"
by Tole J. Hart and Andrew Frank, March 31, 2008). In their most recently
reported quarters, RIM reported shipping 5.4 million devices (June 25,
2008), while Apple reported shipping 717,000 iPhone units (July 21, 2008).
"We believe the mobile Internet market is the fastest growing channel
today and is expected to be one of the largest ever," said Josh James,
CEO and co-founder at Omniture. "Savvy businesses are using the mobile
channel to create a unique Internet experience that meets or exceeds the
PC Web experience. As mobile visitors make up a larger share of the online
audience, we believe mobile analytics will play a more integral role in
capturing market share and gaining a competitive advantage."
