Why AdMob is #1 in Monetizing

It speaks for itself... It saves so much time in messing with integrating multiple ad networks sdks into your app. You just have to add the jar and that's it. Then you can screw with the settings and ad networks later once your app is already on the market, as you start to see results. It's easier to sort through the pieces and find good ad networks. AdMob is definitely an indie's #1 priority in monetizing. The only tough part is...  you can have several different size banners, which means you need multiple layouts... but... you should have multiple layouts anyway... right?!? Haha. That was a joke. It's hard for 1 person to run a business... all that being said... here are the screenshots from admob....



...as I stated earlier... it speaks for itself.




P.S. - You can also spread your audience with AdMob house ads. Check it out for yourself in the admob dashboard.

Promoting Your Android App Part 1

Today I want to talk a little about promoting your Android app in general. I will also provide links to many valuable resources for promoting your apps. There are loads of ways to promote your app. One way I have talked about previously is to submit your app to alternative markets (markets other than Google Play). I posted a massive list I have accumulated while searching for alternative forms of distribution. The list can be found in the original post,  which is available here: http://anddev.blogspot.com/2012/09/big-list-of-app-markets.html. Another form of promotion is to submit your app to forums. I have also written a previous post about that, as well as distributing through fileshares, torrents, etc. However, there are some other ways I haven't discussed. Some of them being very important to promoting your app. One of the most important ways to promote your app that every developer should definitely have, at least one of, is a website. Having a website helps promote your app, helps users find to your app and information about all of your apps, and helps increase SEO of your app on the web (and by SEO I, of course, mean search engine optimization). Also, if you have a website, you can promote the website, which in turn, promotes your app(s). One the absolute BEST ways to promote your website is through StumbleUpon and also their su.pr shortlink service. Another one, that will also help with SEO, is to submit your site to Digg and Reddit. There is one more great way to promote your app that I'd like to talk about before I give you the list of sites to help with your promotion, and that is, through a blog. Having a blog can, easily, be one of the greatest ways you can promote your app for free. If you want to see an example check out our "Poke My Gummy Blog", a blog based off our simplest game on which we now post information about all of our gummy games.
