    I actually tried advertising on android phones. It works basically the same a pay-per-click on the web. The big advantage is that unlike a computer screen your ad is the only thing appearing on that cell phone screen at that particular moment and people can instantly respond. But you definitely need a budget that you are willing to spend because everything happens extremely fast. Within a matter of minutes all the clicks you purchased have been made and your account is at zero. You can schedule a maximum daily limits like $5, $10, or $20, etc. and everything will stop for that day once you hit it. That allows you to review, analyze, adjust, or edit ads if necessary. But I think overall mobile marketing is very good , especially for local business. I found a lot of helpful information about android advertising at androidadvertisingmoney.com
