Mobile Content Expansion
April 10, 2008
Mobile content providers are expanding their services for users and their wallet. Non-voice applications are becoming a must due to the trend personalization of cellphones that are popping up throughout the mobile community. The applications are more complex and include interactive features such as interactive java games and video on demand.
For the businessman and traveler they also provide stock tickers and mapping systems.
Once the service is developed properly, customers will pay a small cost for non-voice applications. According to a survey conducted by ForceNine Consulting and Wirthin Worldwide, the results showed that 40 percent of U.S. adults with cellphones and who use non-voice applications also pay extra for them. Charges amounted to 10 percent of the users bill on average.
If your bill is $100 a month- that’s just an added $10 to have access to a range of interactive applications.
