Oh…And Also No App Interstitials!
App install interstitials that hide a significant amount of content provide a bad search experience
App install banners are less intrusive and preferred
![Page 21: Life After Mobilegeddon: New Strategies for Mobile SEO and app deep linking – Pubcon October 2015](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022070520/58f0fda61a28ab5f768b45e9/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)

Mobile-Friendly Interstitials
App Banners:• Content Moves
Down to Accommodate Banner• Chrome & Apple
Both have Pre-Made Code that is Acceptable• Custom App
Banners Cause Problems
Full Page Interstitials: • Content is Covered• Covered Content Has No
SEO Value• Miss-Match With Deep
Linked Apps• Time Delays & Scroll
Delays May Work-Around (Temporarily)
