Choose the right ad format
Drive mobile app advertising revenue by integrating banner, interstitial, or video ads seamlessly into your app. Our variety of formats means you have lots of choices to provide the best user experience.
-
Banner ads appear at the top or bottom of your app screen and can prompt users to install apps, visit websites, get directions, view products or call a phone number. Our in-app engagement ads expand to full screen when the banner is tapped. Our smart banners automatically resize to fit different screen sizes as the user rotates their device.
-
AdMob interstitials are full-page ads that appear in your app at natural breaks or transition points. A common use case is after a level is completed in a game. Our advertisers use interstitials to create engaging brand experiences, or direct action, such as driving app downloads.
-
AdMob’s video ads bring rich brand experiences to your app, and the flexible nature of the format allows users to skip the video after 5 seconds.
Filter out ads you don’t want
Maintain full control over the types of ads you show using category and ad specific filters, and decide when and where ads are displayed in your app. For example, you can block ads from general categories such as Apparel, Internet, Real Estate, and Vehicles. Or you can use the Ad review center to review individual ads before and after they are shown in your app.
Access all advertisers using Google’s buying platforms
When you monetize with AdMob you get instant access to all of Google’s demand sources. This includes a million Google advertisers as well as real-time bidding (RTB) buyers via the DoubleClick Ad Exchange.
Earn higher CPMs
When advertisers compete, you win. As more advertisers compete to show their ads in your app, they pay higher CPMs in order to win out over their competition. This means you earn more revenue. Thanks to Google’s robust advertiser demand, AdMob CPMs have increased by 200% since the start of 2013.
Top global fill rates
With increased demand from advertisers, you get industry-leading fill rates worldwide. This means that we’re better able to serve ads whenever and wherever your users are engaging with your app.
The fill rates are near enough to 100% the majority of times and return for the ads we serve are the highest of the ad mediums we have tried.

Native Ads Best Practices
Customize your ads
Use the various ad components within the native ad to customize the layout and look and feel, so that each ad delivers the best user experience.
Be sure to review our native ads policies and guidelines.
Keep your communication clear
Clean, beautiful ads with a single call to action will help make your message clear to users, and can help reach higher engagement rates.
Maintain a consistent user experience
It’s important that your ad reflects the user experience. For example, if an app presents new content by swiping left, showing a native ad after swiping left will be intuitive and expected.
Test, learn, and optimize
With Native Ads, it’s crucial to keep iterating and testing different versions of your ads until you get the desired results and CTRs. For example, test different calls-to-action layouts to see what resonates best with your users.

Mediation
Earn more with AdMob Mediation
When monetizing your app, you have the option to show ads from multiple ad networks to help maximize fill rates and increase earnings. AdMob Mediation provides a single place where you can manage many different networks easily. AdMob also supports SDK-less mediation, making it easier for you to add new ad networks without having to integrate additional SDKs or adapters. You can mediate lots of different types of ads, including rewarded, video, interstitials and banners.
Show the highest-paying ads
When you activate ad network optimization, AdMob will dynamically check which ad network is paying the most and request an ad from that ad network to be served in your app. It does this by comparing the historical performance of your ad network CPMs with real time AdMob, AdWords and DoubleClick Ad Exchange bids. Ad network optimization supports AdColony, AMoAd, Domob, Flurry, InMobi, JumpTap, MdotM, Millennial, MobFox, Vserv.mobi, with more ad networks added all the time.
Go SDK-less, save time
When you use SDK-less mediation, you can add new networks server-side without having to update your app. This is great if you’re concerned with SDK size or simply do not want to deal with the hassle of adding and updating new ad network SDKs. With SDK-less mediation, you can conveniently add new ad networks to your mediation stack.
Keep users with rewarded video ads
When you use AdMob’s rewarded mediation, you can easily monetize your apps with rewarded video ads from a number of ad networks. We’ve made it really easy for you to experiment with rewarded ads. We store things like reward and waterfall settings server-side so you can experiment with new configurations without having to change your code. Additionally, you can use existing third-party settings or input your own values when setting your reward unit and amount.
