Link: Mobile User-Generated Content Revenues to Rise Tenfold by 2012
Social networking services will dominate a burgeoning market for mobile user-generated content, according to a new report from Juniper Research. Globally, end-user generated revenues from social networking, dating and personal content delivery services will increase from US$572 million in 2007 to more than US$5.7 billion in 2012, with social networking accounting for 50% of the total by the end of the forecast period.
According to report author Dr Windsor Holden, “Even though social networking sites are in their infancy, the exponential growth experienced by a number of mobile service providers - in some cases achieved primarily through viral marketing - would seem to affirm that there is huge potential in this area. The key challenge now is for those providers to monetise that interest.”
