Has anyone made money using in-app advertising?

IE using Admob within a free app, etc.
Has anyone actually made money with this?
Wondering if it's at all worth it to try generating revenue from a free app

Good question!
I would be very interested in the opinions of some devs that use that business model too!

I have a buddy that has a popular solitaire game in the app market, and he says he makes some decent change off of it. I was shocked to hear this, because I NEVER click on ads, but he says he makes a few bucks off of it, so it must work.

Any idea how much? Like a few bucks a week, or a month?

I know it has been a while since the last post but I think its an interesting issue.
The share of free apps is continuously growing and developers can seriously make a lot of money of implementing ads into their apps.
If your app is rather popular, and you generate a sufficient amount of ad requests, and work with a good monetization platform you can even live off it.

an interesting question to answer i am not sure about the ROI but i think app developers are making money through advertising...

Well as far as I know depends a lot of the active users of your app.
I have a free app with ads and I think developers should support each others clicking the ads...

Actually advertising you apps really work it gives you some money, it depends a lot on the daily downloads, and active downloads, the more you have ovbiously the better

I am lazy to count apps by apps in admob, maybe you can visit my google developer page HERE

I use AdMob.
Unfortunately, the gains are low.
I pay much attention to the quality of my app, but I see that many prefer quantity rather than quality. It may be that their earnings are higher.
If you like you can see my apps here:
https:// play.google.com/store/apps/developer?id=High+Touch
I believe that in order to live with advertising, you should make at least 60000 views per day.
It 'difficult but not impossible

Actually i earn 1€ every 1000 impression with AdMob. But i don't have much impression

Is it possible to earn money on app by advertising? Yes it is! It's not easy but it's worth. First of all you should have intereting good looking app. Then find good ad network, I mean you should know where come from your users and what is target of your ad network. Get know if ad netowrk pay by CPI, CPC, or CPM. And constantly promote your app to get new users but don't forget to do some updates to engage users you have. So we can say More Active Users = Higher Revenue!

"More Active Users = Higher Revenue!" I agree with you, Woodny. Can you give me a quick explanation on CPI, CPC, & CPM? I read the ads FAQs already, but I can't figure out what they are.
I always have 1 question from the very beginning of this "ads-model" journey. Why your earning over 1k impressions is different than mine? How is it evaluated?
Thanks

CPI - cost per install - developer earn money when someone will install his app,
CPC - cost per click - developer earn money when someone will click on ad in his app
CPM - cost per mile - developer earn money when particular ad will be watched 1000 times
Beacause it depends how much advertiser will pay for 1 click, install etc. and how big is commision in ad network.

The same earnings ratio for me. But I think it all depends on where you put your ads. Mine are really not-obtrusive, displayed at the bottom, between levels, so users may not even notice them, or simply prefer to go to the next level. I'll try different approaches in the future.

Yes, it is certainly possible. The key is definitely to have a good quality app which will get used on a regular basis. Once you get up to around 100,000 impressions a day, then you can start to make a reasonable income off them.

[Q] how does admob pay you?

I am wondering how admob pays developers. I have set up a merchant account and have been selling apps for a couple of weeks now, but how exactly does admob give you money from ad revenue? Do they use your banking info from the merchant account on google check out, or do they do it another way?

AdMob writes checks and supports PayPal. I personally do PayPal.
They pay on a net "40" schedule, which means December's earnings will be "processed" on February 10th and sent around the 15th.
I can definitely recommend AdMob as a Publisher. Click through rates are outstanding and I am very happy with the profits that I have gotten from AdMob. Just don't ask users to click Ads for any reason.

thanks, any tips on increasing revenue? I just launched an ad based game today but I've only made like 22 cents so far

This is probably a dumb idea but put it somewhere people would accidentally hit a lot.

Please don't do this. First off you risk being banned, second off it's click fraud and in the end hurts AdMob, Android and Mobile as a whole. Developers advertise on AdMob. If some advertiser pays AdMob, then gets a bunch of click fraud clicks, that aren't going to put any more money into AdMob. Which puts AdMob down money. Which means they can put out less money to the publishers.

@Anderdroid - how successful are your ads that you get, if you dont mind me asking (e.g., how many impressions, click rates, etc do your apps usually get) and is it one main app or balanced between several?

Sorry about that... Every thing iI've seen with admob always has ads where I hit them by mistake so I figured that was the general idea. Also I felt bad so I decided to bump with this post.

Click fraud? I've never heard of this term b4. wether they click by accident or on purpose they sol end up seeing the ad so imo everyone wins. But I would hardcore cap this fraud...fraud would be doing something like making a click through button where the user thinks he is clicking on ones thing but actually clocks on an ad. Again this its primarily my opinion and I doubt it makes snt diferent in the world lol.

Actually, it doesnt really matter if you put ads where people are likely to press them. Admob automatically adjusts how much you earn based on how successful your clicks are. For example, if someone clicks an ad, and actually goes on to buy the product or download the app, admob tracks this. If you have a bunch of clicks where the person immediately hits back, admob will lower your rates to balance this out.

How are you sure about this? I haven't heard anything like this before.
I have read tons of complaints about Advertisers in regards to the quality of clicks on AdMob... So much that I'm even avoiding advertising on it.

Because thats how online advertising has always worked.
If I own a website, and have ads for a product, some places will offer a small percentage of the sale if a person buys something and was navigated there by my website.

Pretty sure this is incorrect in regards to admob.e
Sent from my Nexus One

Admob completely controls how much you make per click. Apps that are more prone to misclicks will see a higher click %, but roughly the same eCPM as apps that keep the ads off to the side.

are there any specific guidelines?

Anyone using TapContext?

Anyone start using TapContext yet? I got an email from them but haven't downloaded the SDK.

TapContext
Hello emdavis… We had a really great BETA launch with some really good success with several niche app developers. Even since opening our doors outside of BETA we are still seeing some real good results for a variety of clients.
Please feel free to test us out on a portion of your installs, and let us know how things go. Right now we are offering $50 instant bonus to all new developer accounts. Visit our site to learn more tapcontext dot com

my experience
My experience with TapContext so far has been pretty good… what I have noticed with Airpush is how it started off well, but dwindles down to nearly nothing. Leadbolt's revenues are growing, but for the past several months TapContext has held extremely strong.

what kind of ads did they offer? banner? push? icon? anyone know?

Hello @ CrashingDutchman,
I wanted to give this some time to see if Bobby_l answered but wanted to answer as a TapContext Rep... Our network supports native Android development platforms at this time. We are working on instructions for other dev platforms. Unfortunately, we currently do not have testing/instructions for other platforms besides IntelliJ or Eclipse.
Hope that helps!

I implemented the SDK in one of my apps using only interstitial. eCPM was high and I thought I'd be happy with it but they ran some bull**** anti-virus ad. Some people were confused thinking that it implied that my app had a virus. Several 5 star reviews turned to 1 star and uninstallation rate went up.
Needless to say I took it down and was very disappointed.

Admob has banned me

Hi guys, today I woke up with a horrific news. I wanted to kill myself when I logged in to my Admob account. I am banned without a warning or at least a courtesy mail. I have been trying to find out the reason, I have read tons of similar posts and it looks like it is not very likely that they will reactivate my account. I need some suggestion about the mail that I will send them in order for them to understand that I did nothing wrong and that what they did is actually wrong.
I was getting 30k impressions daily and I am suspicious that somebody has attacked my application; however, isn't admob supposed to understand that and filter out those clicks?
This is so frustrating, any comment on this issue would be great.
Thank you so much.

That's a really sad news.. I think it could be possible that some user just clicked your ads over and over again, just to get you banned.. Normally, I would suggest that admob is able to filter this clicks out, but it seems not in your case.
If i remember correct, there should be an official "protest"-formular online. But I would not put to much hope in int.
Maybe you should just try a new network, as soon as possible.

Thank you for your comments, It is really a shame if a person is able to make me banned that way. I have switched to another network but it will not be paying as good as Admob does. Anyways Google is the boss and I have no other option except abiding by whatever this giant wants.

Im surprised they couldnt filter out multiple clicks from one account. But they would probably just assume it was you telling someone to click on ads for them.
Can I ask what your app was?

In most cases the ban of admob not involve the ban on the developer console since the services are not related. However it's really strange that admob ban persons in this way, are you sure that you have not put ads near buttons to increase the click?

Post some screenshots of the locations where you put your admob banners and the names of your apps so we can tell you why you got banned.

Hi! Sorry to hear about that. Based on my own experience conducting workshop for my students, we follows these guidelines:
1) Never click on your own app
2) Never open your admob account using public wifi
3) never open your admob account using the same gmail address as your google developer account.
There are few more advices we normally gives our students but those above is the major guidelines that students must follow.
I hope this helps you.
All the best. Never give up. Just continue open a new admob account as their new formats gives us better income.
Take care.
Kind regards.

Though this post is created last year, I have some questions and hopefully if you could help. Thanks.
Did you contact AdMob support to get more information about the ban?
What happened to your App after the ban? Did it still show AD, Blanked, or simply make the App crashed?
Did you try another AD network, such as MoPub mentioned by others?

I only use Admob.

Where did you place the ads? Did you abuse the system in any way? Could it be because of your apps? Did they contain copyrighted material?

MoPub allows you to mediate between a whole bunch of ad networks. The only disadvantage is that the support is very slow in answering your questions and in verifying your account. If you can live with that, I'd suggest changing to MoPub.

you can chose something else.
I don't think there is much to upset, you can chose so many other ad networks since it is really so easy, such as startapp, mobilecore and mobvista, so easy to switch..

AdMob Alternative
Unless you have a ton of impressions, a solution like MoPub may be overkill. MoPub is a mediation solution that allows you to optimize between multiple networks to best value your inventory. It really is just a little more savvy than having a single network manage your inventory, and you have the ability to serve house ads.

Hi!
I've been banned too 3 or 4 months ago I think, and I decided to move to Adbuddiz (which is not working for me at all, btw) without sending the reply form to Admob. Two days ago I said "let's give it a try" and send that form to Admob to see if can recover my account somehow, and yesterday my account was OK again!
So, you have nothing to lose in sending that reply form, as long as you send a logic explanation
PS: Sorry for my english.

Best Ad network to monetize my APP

Hi guys
I'm looking for a good ad network to monetize my apps. What's the best network for native ads? With best fill rates and payouts? And which one are the worst and why?
Also if you know the same stuff about interstitial, that would be really helpful.
Any advise would be hugely appreciated! Please share your experience. Thanks

admob is best
Sent from my LENOVO A760 using Tapatalk

I recommend admob. I've got around 50,000 impressions with 98% fill rate with admob. Admob pays well for clicks in USA, Italy, Japan, and some other rich countries (around 1$ per click). For other countries, including UK, it doesn't pay so well but it has coverage in almost all countries. In Pakistan and India, it pays around 0.02$ per click. On average, you might get more or less 0.20$ per click if your app is disturbed worldwide. So target the above mentioned countries if you want to make money with ads. With few users it is very difficult to reach the payout threshold i.e 100$. So you need many users and they must be frequent as well.

AdMob often works perfectly for that, but not in all cases. There are other ad networks which can beat it sometimes.
I'd recommend you to try ad mediation services. Mediation services aggregate the best demand offers from multiple networks, perform an auction between them and put the most profitable ad in your app. The main advantage is that you don’t have to sign up account for each network, set them up, integrate and control how they perform.
Speaking about myself, I've just switched to Appodeal, there's their kinda official topic in that subforum too, where they answer questions. I think you may try them

Ad mediation sounds really good, but for devs who are struggling to get installs will get stuck because they will not reach the payout threshold of either of the networks. Indie developers like me would want to receive the first payment as soon as possible, and it is already difficult to reach threshold of one network when you have so little number of installs.

AdMob doesn't have a problem with mediation, there's a plenty of services and startups who use AdMob's advertisers. That's completely legal.
There's basically two options, you can set up an Appodeal account and use only it, then you won't even have the AdMob console, Appodeal will use their own accounts for your app. However, you will still be able to see the amount of impressions/clicks/etc each network gave you.
But if you want, you can connect your own AdMob account to Appodeal, in that case you'll be able to see AdMob's own stats in their console. In that case Appodeal will take care about all other networks above from AdMob.
If you want that $1 immediately, there's an immediate payout. There's about 2% cut, but you get it right away. That's because Appodeal pays you from their pocket, before ad networks wired anything at all.

If you want that $1 immediately, there's an immediate payout. There's about 2% cut, but you get it right away. That's because Appodeal pays you from their pocket, before ad networks wired anything at all.
