Is there a mechanishm to sell ad space directly on android?
I know of admob and such, but on admob, you don't talk directly to the people whose ads show up in your app.
If a service to do this does not exist, do you guys have any idea of how I could sell ads directly for my app?
Both AdMob and AdWhirl support "house ads" where you can place your own text or banner ads into the rotation of ads. By default AdMob is setup like Google's other advertising in that they do the brokering for you, and attempt to display the most relevant ads in your app.
House Ads would allow you to do direct ad sales and displays those ads directly in your app. I am using AdWhirl and have sold ads to 3rd parties and backfill the rest with ads from Google.
Something to be aware of is that AdWhirl specifically states that their reporting for House Ads isn't exactly accurate. So you may need to roll your own tracking mechanism if you do head that direction.
If you don't use a service like one of these from Google (or someone else) you'll have to roll your own ad service.

If I have a page on my android app which is related to cars, can I customise the ads shown so that only ads about cars appear?
I have set ads by using Google's AdMob. How far can I customise the ads that appear? Could I provide specific keywords like "cricket" or "backpacks"?
I want the ad to be an AdMob native ad.
I would need the same for an iOS app.
Native ads are only given to selected developers/companies who make more money for Google, and I don't think there is certain criteria that is mentioned anywhere to be eligible to get those.
As the page for Native Ads here says:
Note: Native Ads Advanced is currently released to a limited set of
publishers. If you're interested in participating, reach out to your
account manager to discuss the possibility.
If you absolutely want the Native Ads into your app, you can use Facebook Ads platform for monetization as they offer Native Ads without any special requirements.
You can select only ads related to car by disabling all the other ads from your admob panel. You can disable the other ads by going into "Blocking Controls" section of your app. But it'd not be good move as Google caters ads based on what user needs, if your app is about car, showing only ads related to cars "MIGHT" benefit you, but it'd drastically reduce your fill rate which will affect your revenue very very much.
I wanted to ask is it legal to use the Google Admob reward ads without giving any reward to the user like coins, points or etc. And can we use these ads in non-gaming applications like maps applications or chatting applications and etc.
The video type of interstitial ads rather than the rewarded video ads should suit your purpose. Try using the sample unit id for the interstitial video written in this page to see if it is really what you want.
I guess is legal and feasible. Rewarded ads are commonly used to continue playing with same items, weapons, collectables... after your character dies instead of losing all the progress. And AdMob is not limited to games.
As I am new to the android technology I want to get some information from you people regarding google ads in our application.
As I have integrated google ads in our project recently, I just want to know what is the use of adding google ads in our application. Will the publisher will get any benefits (like earning money or free advertisement). Can anyone give me some clear cut clarification regarding the main benefits of adding google ads in our app.
As the publisher (that's the name for those providing ad space in their apps) you will be able to earn revenue for displaying ads from the ad networks. You can also display house ads if you have other apps/sites that you want to promote.
I would suggest using a mediation platform so that you can pick and choose which ad networks to use. Admob (Google Ads) provides such a service.
I have following requirement for Ad-Integration.
I want My app should be populated only with the Ads created by Me.No other Ads should be supplied-to or feed-to my app.
I would like to do Analysis of Ad I integrated.
Currently Admob and Inmobi are populating my app with the Ads what they want.
But I don't want to do that.
I have account on both Admob as well as Inmobi.
But I haven't got any option on admin-panel to achieve my requirement.
Can anyone tell In what direction I move ahead to achieve this?or
Can anyone suggest an Ad-network which will suit my requirement?
With AdMob, you can set up house ads and fully allocate them so that they always get shown in place of network ads. You'll get reporting on requests, impressions, and cilcks on your house ad campaigns as well.
I'm currently using admob sdk to monetize my apps.
I recently wanted to earn more, and I found a french company. So I created a House ad, from the admob website to relay their ads on my apps.
But now I want to expend it to other countries.
I found a lot of companies but they are all using their own sdk... (mobfox,mopub,etc...)
So did you know any that are providing a banner picture and a direct link to the ad in order to make it work with the admob house ads ?
