Google’s Strategic AdMob Misstep

• andrewljohnson 17y ago
  Here's what I know about AdMob. I went to their site on Monday and tried to advertise one of my iPhone apps. AdMob failed to figure out my iTunes URL, so I could not post any ads. I immediately posted to their forum and emailed their support. To date, I have received no response. It seems like they will fit in very well at Google.

    I've had great experiences advertising through AdWords, so I don't know how your bad experience with admob is going to fit in well at Google. I've done some advertising through admob as well for an iphone app, and I got it to work fine, but I think the traffic was crap. I'm still doing in app advertising but now through adwords, and I still don't think the quality of traffic is any good, but at an average of 4 cents per click I'm fine with it. I think they're going to make some big improvements in mobile advertising, and who knows what new possibilities will come of it.

      Yeah, I've had no problem with using AdWords. I was just joking because Google famously won't answer an email.

        That is true, unless you spend enough to have a google team assigned to you. I have 3 reps I can call or email and they're extremely responsive.
