The AdMob module adds mobile ads to your app using banner and interstitial ad formats. Banner ads stay fixed at the bottom of the screen during app use. Interstitial ads take over the screen and should be used carefully due to their interruptive nature.

Monetize Your App in Minutes with Google AdMob: Turn your app into a revenue machine by adding banner, interstitial, and rewarded ads — no coding headaches required. WebToApps takes care of the heavy lifting so you don’t have to. Just add your AdMob App ID and Ad Unit IDs on webtoapps.com to integrate with your mobile app. Then, simply visit webtoapps.com, rebuild your app, and you’re all set to start earning — no manual SDK integration, no stress.

8. Best Practices

To get the most out of Google AdMob while keeping users happy, it's best to use a limited number of well-placed ads. Avoid cluttering your app with too many ad units, and choose formats like banners, interstitials, or rewarded ads based on user flow. Always follow Google’s ad policies, especially avoiding accidental clicks or misleading placements. Prioritize user experience by not interrupting key actions and by using proper frequency caps. Leveraging mediation, setting content ratings, and monitoring app performance regularly will help you maximize revenue without hurting retention or risking policy violations.

Tip: Double-check your App ID and Ad Unit IDs. Incorrect values will prevent ads from displaying in your app.
