Close ad

Apple's iAd, the mobile advertising platform, continues to receive favorable reviews from companies whose ads run on the new system, including Unilever's Dove and Nissan. 

They report that iAds tend to attract users and retain them much longer than other types of digital advertising. One of the first companies to join the program was Nissan, and it looks like the automaker won't regret it. The company says that customers click on an average of 10 times more than other online ads. "We strongly believe that this is the way to monetize modern advertising," Nissan said.

iAd is a mobile advertising platform developed by Apple for the iPhone, iPod Touch, and iPad that allows third parties to embed advertising for developers in their applications. iAd was announced on April 8, 2010 and is part of iOS 4. Advertisers have already spent $60 million since the project was launched.
