When it comes to monetization using in-app advertisements in Windows Phone apps, there are quite a few option like Microsoft’s Pubcenter, Mobfox, Smaato, AdDuplex, Nokia’s Inneractive and Google’s Admob. In the past two years I have tried all these ad providers and have finally struck to Google’s Admob. There was a period when Microsoft’s Pubcenter gave the best returns but gradually its fill rates started dropping and earnings dropped by around 99.5% for developers outside US. That made me try other ad providers available for WP and frankly none of them are as good as Pubcenter(the old one) but now developers don’t have a choice. In this post I will show you how you can integrate AdMob in your Windows Phone app. You can add AdMob in your app by XAML or via code in C#.
