Mobile Image Ads Now Available on AdWords

Google recently added mobile image ads to AdWords. Here is my quick first past

The Good:

  • Advertiser can choose ad size,
  • Sizes are limited to keep download times low, and
  • All ads MUST link to a mobile-friendly landing page.

The Bad:

  • The ad size does not appear to be served dynamically.

Imagine a 180 pixel wide image on a 360 pixel wide screen or the other way around. Due to the various screen resolutions on the market today this could diminish click-thru rates on mobile ads.
