Noviclick stats

As can be seen in the statistics below, the performance is clearly better on Android than on Windows. This is probably due to the fact that the landing page was better optimised for mobile users. Looking at the banners you can see that banner 1 shows the best results, almost 20% better than the other banners. For this reason it is always advisable to test multiple banners and rotate them regularly to prevent banner blindness.
