So I have a game which I am 90% done with. I don’t expect to get 1 million downloads or anything like that and I don’t have a phat budget to work with. Which monitization plugin would be best? I noticed that RevMob looks like it is free even with the basic corona while others cost 200$ a year.
I don’t really have a good understanding of how ads work yet and all that jazz about fill rates and such.
What are your thoughts?
Make the game entirely free and without ads.
I second RGs comment.
The hassle of setting up and implementing ads isn’t worth it until your gave has achieved a certain success/activity, something that is slightly more likely to happen when its ad-free. If that success happens, you can always carefully add ads to your app then.
The market is saturated and making money, especially money that matter, is very hard.
I’ve made more money on in-app purchases than on ads, in fact i’ve dropped using ads.
Personally i’d never use these small ads in game anyway since they are annoying (you dont want annoyed players), and take up precious screen space better used for the app/game. If using ads, I go for the occasional interstital full screen ad type.
