with google developer account now paid. how much can i earn from the app? what is the per download pay for a free app? and can i add my own ads like admob ads to my app made from buzztouch??

@varijkapil13, there's no limit to the amount you can earn, it just depends on the popularity of your app - more downloads usually equals more money. You can add any ad network you like. Admob is an easy one to get up and running quickly and it'll make you money, maybe not as much as some networks, but it's reliable.

@raveyd:-can u plz giv me an idea about payment on a single download of the app? and what are other ad networks which are better in terms of payment than Admob?

and to add ad networks in my app? i have no idea how can i do it?

One step at a time mate! You'll be able to add networks once you've built your project and got it into eclipse. From a design point of view, once you can see your app running you'll be better able to see where you'd like adverts to go. I really can't say how much money you'll earn, it's different for everybody. It might reassure you (or not) but I live in rip off Britain and am able to make a living from adverts in apps. @Sandeep has a great guide on here for integrating Admob, find it, it's spot on and easy to do. Everyone uses and recommends different ad networks, there are lots of posts on the forum. I like Leadbolt, other people like Revmob, Startapp, Mobclix, Tapjoy and loads of others - you should check out their sites, compare claimed revenues and make your choice! Hope that helps.

@varijkapil1 if you make your App free then you don't get paid per download. If you wish to be paid per download then you want to check out Startapp. Google it to see prices, get sdk etc. Best of luck with your apps

sorry for the ques bombing that was really helpful for me. Since i have already built my project and with your help on the previous thread i was able to simulate the app. what i need to know now is how can i build an .apk file from it and what code and where to use it to integrate ads to my app? i guess i have to search the forum for that and i can get something useful as u stated @Sandeep's guide. thanx for your help.

@varijkapil13, you could drop a pm to @Sandeep, I don't think he'll mind, it'll be a lot quicker than searching the forum! Here's a guide to building your apk: https://www.buzztouch.com/files/howtos/Compiling_Your_Android_Application_v1.0.pdf Lots of useful stuff in the 'How To's' link at the top of this page.

thanx a tone @raveyd. That was really helpful. And thanx for the link too. gonna pm @Sandeep to learn more.

Hi Kapil, If you want to add admob in your apps then follow steps below. The example below id for screen_webview.xml which was for bt version 1.5 but you can add admob in any screen of bt version2.0 apps same way. In case you want to integrate startapp then follow my pdf tutorial link. Link-http://www.buzztouch.com/forum/thread.php?tid=AF976A17FF7F078FA39E2EC ADMOB- Steps: Step 1. Download the Admob sdk then in eclipse, right click on the project name and select Properties. Select Java Build Path on the left and then make sure the Libraries tab is selected at the top. Then click Add External JARS... on the right side of the window. Navigate to where you saved the unzipped AdMob sdk and select the .jar file. After adding the build path to the sdk, again right click the project file and select properties---> android--- and select Google API 13. If you dont have Google API Level 13, then you will have to download it. Step 2. Add these two lines in AndroidManifest.xml before the closing application tag ..................................................... <activity android:name="com.google.ads.AdActivity" android:configChanges="keyboard|keyboardHidden|orientation|screenLayout|uiMode|screenSize|smallestScreenSize"/> ..................................................... Step 3. Modify your screen_webview.xml ..................................................... <com.google.ads.AdView android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:id="@+id/adView" android:layout_width="wrap_content" ads:adUnitId="Your ADD MOB ID" ads:adSize="SMART_BANNER" ads:loadAdOnCreate="true" android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"> </com.google.ads.AdView> </RelativeLayout> .................................................... Note :- Don't Forget to Add xmlns:ads="http://schemas.android.com/apk/lib/com.google.ads" After <RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" .................................................... Screen after adding the above codes looks as follows:- screen_webview.xml .................................................... <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" xmlns:ads="http://schemas.android.com/apk/lib/com.google.ads" android:id="@+id/containerView" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="fill_parent" android:background="@android:color/transparent" > <LinearLayout android:id="@+id/subContainer" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="fill_parent" android:gravity="center_horizontal" android:orientation="vertical" > <WebView xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" android:id="@+id/webView" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="fill_parent" > </WebView> </LinearLayout> <com.google.ads.AdView android:id="@+id/adView" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:layout_alignParentBottom="true" ads:adSize="BANNER" ads:adUnitId="Your admob ID" ads:loadAdOnCreate="true" > </com.google.ads.AdView> </RelativeLayout>
