Monetizing Android Apps in South Africa

google_AdMob

In South Africa we unfortunately do not have access to the Android Paid App market, so how can local developers make money?

Well one way is to use a system called Ad Mob.

A few months ago, Ad Mob was purchased by Google and is a great advertising platform to target mobile users.
Ad Mob can serve rich Ad formats into Android applications, and even iphone and WebOS Apps.

Below are some links on how to get started with using and integrating Ad Mob.

So hopefully with this product in mind, we can see more SA developers creating awesome apps and monetizing on those apps.
