Developer Media’s latest mobile developer market brief reveals insight, recommendations for marketers aiming to reach this growing market

November 25, 2013 — Toronto, Canada — Developer Media, experts in marketing to software developers, today announced its latest Developer Mobile Market Survey and Analysis reports. The results reveal opportunities for marketers looking to target mobile developers, and illustrate how the market is changing.

Developer Media’s research illuminates the complexity and challenge inherent in developing for today’s mobile platforms. While iOS and Android continue to dominate, developer interest is increasing in other platforms as well. Developer Media CXO, Jeff Hadfield, discusses the results and provides additional marketer insights in an in-depth Mobile Developer Market Perspective and Analysis Brief.

“Nearly all developers are mobile developers,” said Jeff Hadfield, Developer Media’s CXO. “While we see more developers developing for mobile full-time, they’re still the minority: most mobile development is done on developers’ own time.”

“Plus, the challenge and complexity of mobile technologies mean pain for developers and opportunity for savvy marketers,” Hadfield said. “Marketers can better serve and reach developers through insights about who mobile developers are, what they need and what kinds of apps they’re building (hint: they’re not all for consumer app stores).”

Survey results and analysis also encompass platforms currently targeted and planned as well as how developer interest relates to worldwide mobile device usage.
