AdMob Ads
Google AdMob Ads, is an Addon available for some of our plans, and lets you monetize them and earn an additional income from your apps.
*Notice that Google AdMob Addon is available only for iOS & Android mobile apps. Learn more here.
What is Google AdMob Addon?
Google AdMob is an advertising placement service for mobile apps by Google that allow you to display video or image advertisements relevant to your app users and earn money when they view or click them. The more people/users are using your app, the more the profits. Please note that if they click on the ads, the profits of yours are way higher than if they simply skipped them.
On which plans is it available?
The AdMob Addons can be activated on Enterprise & Radio Network mobile plans. Please note that Starter mobile plans contain our own ads while Business plan is ads-free.
What is more, both Addons are not included in Golden Addon in Starter & Business app subscriptions.
"Ok. But how much money can I earn?"
That is not something that can be answered in a few words. It depends on many factors, such: how many people are actively using your app, how many times they click on the ads, what is their location (e.g. USA users' click-on-ads pay a lot more than users in Africa or Europe), etc.
The sure thing is that if you users using often your app, or even clicking on the ads, you will earn a descent amount of money. What is more, if you manage to increase your app's active users in more than 1.000 users, then we are talking about a descent additional source of income for your Radio Station.
Where can I place AdMob Ads on my mobile apps?
Looksomething apps support smart banners or banner ads and Interstitial Ads, with the first ones being displayed on the bottom of the screen for as long as the app is active while the latter ones are displayed in full-screen once the app launches. Please mind, that mobile banner positions are fixed and cannot be altered nor increased in number.
How can I set them up on my mobile apps?

Set up your Ad units for Android and/or iOS
Create 1 Banner Ad unit & 1 Interstitial Ad for each app of yours.
For example, if you have an Android & an iOS app, you must create in total:
Android:
Banner Ad Unit ID: ca-app-pub-123456789012345/123456
Interstitial Ad Unit ID:ca-app-pub-123456789012345/123456

Interstitial Ad Unit ID:ca-app-pub-123456789012345/123456
Send an email to support@looksomething.com with your Ad unit IDs
Copy all your Ad-unit ids, and send us an email mentioning which unit is for which app and which specific type of ad it represents.
Please do not make any mistake in explaining what id refers to which app, as the ads will not work at in the end.
You can easily recognise IDs; for example banner ads IDs look like "ca-app-pub-1847075713715043/768760"
Make the last settings to let AdMob check & enable the ads' display
General Settings for your ads:
No matter if you have an Android or/and an iOS app, you need to add your personal AdMob code snippet on your website, so that AdMob crawls it and allows you to publish apps.
You will probably need your developer's assistance in that.
Please follow all the process that is described here: https://support.google.com/admob/answer/9363762
Settings for your iOS app:
In case you want to add AdMob ads in your iOS app, we will have to run a process for you.
Your iOS app must be hosted in your own Apple Developer Account. In case you have not provided us access in it please contact per email: info@looksomething.com right away.
Then, we will have to go to https://appstoreconnect.apple.com/, login to your Account and update the marketing url information, by putting your website where your snippet is already posted. All this requires an update of your app to be submitted on the Store which will be done from us for free.
So, you easily realise that providing us access to your Apple Developer Account & at the App Store Connect, is a vital issue.
In case you need more information regarding the creation of your AdMob account or about setting up your IDs please refer to this article.
In all this process, our experienced stuff, will be there to assist you.
You may contact us per email at: support@looksomething.com or info@looksomething.com, or by texting us on our Live Chat Box on our website.
