Admob and others use the CTR when determining what bids to give your app, or to give any at all. If you have a small CTR, all of your users will see less ads, and ads with lower bids. As a result, users who are likely to, or do click on ads, will see fewer ads, and those they do see and click on

Is it documentend somewhere what determines the income per click? That way we can be sure about the best approach. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group. To post to this group, send email to android-developers@googlegroups.com To

You could have -or simply claim to have, since there is no way for us to check it- an eCPM of $200 and you will be still wrong: the problem has nothing to see with your eCPM, the problem is that you are clearly miss understanding the meaning and calculation of such metrics. On the other hand l

Increasing CTR increases CPM. If you want to deny that, you're also denying yourself potential revenue. There's no simple math here as Rudolf explained. But forget the revenue. What is the point of an app anyway? It's providing a useful bit of software that improves the usability of the device t

I agree. Also my ratio of 'I don't like ads' complains is about one on ten thousands or so... nothing to be worried about. Most -and I mean MOST- of users seems to find reasonable to have ads on free app. On Sep 18, 2012 2:49 AM, "William Ferguson" wrote: > Curious. I'm about to introduce the a

Curious. I'm about to introduce the ability to make an in app purchase to remove all the ads. I get very few comments on the fact the app contains ads, perhaps because it's always had them and I;ve been very up front in the market description about how it's funded. I get about the same number
