How do I buy advertising on the Mobile Web?

Buying advertising on the Mobile Web is similar to buying display advertising on the Internet. Graphical, interactive display ads are the predominant ad unit. In most cases, Mobile Web banner ad impressions can be purchased on a cost per thousand (CPM) or a cost per click (CPC) basis. Mobile offers targeting possibilities beyond that of traditional media. As this develops further, we would expect to see a range of targeting options
made available covering context, demographic and behavioral attributes. Any targeting options made available will comply with existing national level, legal and regulatory frameworks governing privacy and personal data.
Some operators and publishers that have Mobile Web sites sell mobile ads directly, while others allow their inventory to be sold by a third party, either as premium inventory or as part of a mobile ad network.
The biggest difference between buying Mobile Web display ads and Internet display ads is that Mobile Web ads are not sold by unit size. Because the sizes and resolutions of mobile phone screens vary, the way the content looks on those mobile phones will also vary. The sizes of Mobile Web banners as defined in the

MMA Mobile Advertising Guidelines are optimized to best fit the mobile phone on which the ad is being
viewed. This improves the user experience, ad readability, creative flexibility and effectiveness. This is why many publishers and ad networks may ask you to provide multiple versions of your banner creative with your Mobile Web campaign.
