How the Mobile Advertising Index Methodology Works

You’ll notice three columns in the top 10 list:

  • Adoption: The number of TUNE customers currently working with the partner
  • Install Volume: The total number of installs driven by the partner
  • Conversion Rate: The rate of clicks that converted into actual app installs

The Mobile Advertising Index provides an absolute rank number for each partner, so the partner that TUNE customers use the most for video is ranked first (in this case, Twitter) and then all other partners fall in line behind them. The Mobile Advertising Index updates every 30 days, so you can check back periodically to see the most up to date insights.
