**More Google searches take place on mobile devices than on desktops in 10 countries including the US and Japan, according to the company, yet mobile search advertising spend has been slow to keep up. **

The pace of growth has been steady, however, and many anticipate the channel will soon be mobile-dominated (accounting for more than 50 percent of search advertising spend) according to Marin Software's Global Online Advertising Index, which samples/surveys enterprise-class marketers - larger advertisers and agencies that spend in excess of $1 million annually on paid search, display, social and mobile.

As companies begin to invest more heavily into mobile search advertising, Marin Software advises marketers take advantage of mobile-first ad formats and to allocate budgets with a view toward a more mobile-focused landscape. Marin also recommends that search advertisers stay abreast of mobile Web standards to ensure an optimal user experience.

"Search advertising continues to rapidly evolve. New, advertiser-friendly and mobile-centric innovations are keeping pace with consumer demand for online searches and ongoing product deals," said John McNulty, Vice President of Global Marketing at Marin Software. "Our research reinforces the need for search advertisers to not only stay smart about how to best earmark their budgets, but also to provide the most effective user experience for on-the-go consumers."
