Apple's iAds team contacted me about my app

As the subject line indicates, I was contacted by the iAds team. They told me I could increase my iAd revenue if I use a shared view across all pages. Apparently, my app serves up new ads every time a user moves from one page in the app to another, and so they only see the individual ads for a few seconds as they navigate, resulting in very low click-through rates. Does anyone know what I should do to tweak my app so the same ads carry through from page to page? I don't see any such options in the BT 1.5 settings, but perhaps it's something I can tweak in the project code when working in Xcode. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

Hmm...this is a great idea!!! I'll see what I can come up with. I'm afraid it's not going to be anything simple because each screen has it's own view controller. I'll snoop around a bit and see if I can come up with an adjustment. Nudge this if you don't hear anythign in a few days?

Hi David, If it's something that can be implemented into BT, that would be fantastic.

Any work on making the iAd the same across different screens? It would speed up apparent iAd load times. Is there a work around to show the same ad instead of loading a new ones?

I've just noticed the same thing happening with my iAds... Has anyone figured out a fix for this? It would definitely boost CTRs and I would love for that to happen ;)

I'm reviving/bumping this topic because I've once again been contacted by Apple about this. (They emailed me today.) I'd love to figure out a way to have the ads remain static from page to page, but haven't been able to do it on my own. Anyone out there figure out a solution?
