Improves app-install rates up to 70% and user lifetime value up to 30%
San Francisco – InMobi, the world’s most powerful mobile advertising platform for developers, today announced the launch of Appographic Targeting™, an industry-first, app-interest-based audience targeting capability. Appographic Targeting™ helps app marketers promote apps to users based on their unique app interests. It leverages audience insights that go beyond app ownership and app category, and has potentially delivered up to 72% higher install rates, 26% lower Cost-per-Install (CPI) and 30% higher consumer Lifetime Value (LTV) on app promotion campaigns.

Appographic Targeting™ is based on InMobi’s analysis of over ten thousand apps on the app store to identify the core elements that define a given app. These functional, design and interactive elements, identified by InMobi, transcend app categories like gaming, social, entertainment, travel and commerce. Based on these elements, the InMobi audience comprising one billion unique mobile devices has been categorized into 200 Appographic segments. Marketers can now utilize these segments for sharper targeting of app-install campaigns.
For example, using Appographic Targeting™,
- A flight booking app can now also be promoted to users who engage with apps that offer trip planning, hotel booking, holiday packages or travel reviews.
- Similarly, a shopping app can be promoted to users who engage with other apps that offer any type of deals and discounts, sell men’s or women’s apparel, or apps that sell specific products like books and shoes.
- A mid-core game can be promoted to users who enjoy apps that are based on city construction, clan-battle or medieval themes.
App marketers have traditionally targeted users based on device ownership, location data and content affinity. However, research by InMobi shows that app users tend to use apps whose similarities are not necessarily limited to categories only in the app store. By targeting audiences based on their app interests, marketers can now maximize install-rates as well as user lifetime value.
“We have conducted over 50 successful pilots with several large app developers who have seen significantly better campaign results over traditional targeting. We expect this capability to be particularly beneficial to developers and are offering it via our self-serve platform,” said Piyush Shah, Vice President – Products, InMobi. “Combined with our global scale, Appographic Targeting™ completes our full stack of offerings to make any developer successful in driving high quality user acquisition.”

Appographic Targeting™ is available as part of InMobi’s new self-serve app install platform that offers easy campaign setup and management. The platform also includes powerful targeting features, high performing ad formats including native ads and a wide range of tracking, reporting and analytics capabilities.
