Digital agencies will grow their ad space based on size and complexity, creating opportunities for market players and challenges for advertisers. We will notice more growth in ad placements within mobile phones and mobile messaging apps. Still, bots will burn fake ad traffic generation by advertisers to regain trust in digital advertising.<\/p>\n<p>Presenting the top nine trends that will shape the mobile advertising landscape in the year 2017.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Bots_Will_Attract_Some_Cash\"><\/span><strong>Bots Will Attract Some Cash<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>A recent study shows that 60% of Google&rsquo;s ad revenue comes from mobile ads, which is a huge leap from the previous year, which was about 44% in the year 2015. By the end of the year 2018, nearly two-thirds of Google&rsquo;s net ad revenues worldwide will come from mobile ad placements. But the powerful surge in mobile traffic will also make more room for fake views and clicks. As a result, mobile ad fraud will become more dominant in 2017.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_Invention_of_Messaging_Applications\"><\/span><strong>The Invention of Messaging Applications<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>WhatsApp, Kik, Facebook Messenger, and WeChat are live examples of how there is exceptional growth in messaging apps.

By pinpointing specific impressions, categorizing the problem, and providing actionable data in real-time, publishers can work with mediators to become part of the solution instead of being labeled as the problem.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-7142\" src=\"https:\/\/branex.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/Fraud.jpg\" alt=\"Fraud\" width=\"849\" height=\"570\" srcset=\"https:\/\/branex.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/Fraud.jpg 533w, https:\/\/branex.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/Fraud-300x202.jpg 300w, https:\/\/branex.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/Fraud-370x249.jpg 370w, https:\/\/branex.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/Fraud-270x181.jpg 270w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 849px) 100vw, 849px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Cyber_Attacks_From_Ad_Bots\"><\/span><strong>Cyber Attacks<\/strong><strong> From Ad Bots<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The inception of fake clicks by mobile apps is used to steal credit cards.
