I am about to integrate iAd in one of my apps. My idea is to build a mechanism that always try to load iAd first. If no iAd is available for a given user or time, an ad from AdMob is loaded. If no ad from Admob is available, then a local ad I will prepare, loads.
My question is: is there a way to create an ad using Admob that behaves like iOS Ads? I mean, that do not ejects the application and open safari or whatever?
If yes, is there any tutorial out there showing how to do that?
thanks.

I am trying to submit an update of my app but it shows me some questions and I don't know what to check. I am using AdMob in my app just showing banners. I saw this post Does this app use the Advertising Identifier (IDFA)? - AdMob 6.8.0 and they say that AdMob does use IDFA, but
my question is: Do I need to add some extra code to my project? and
What should I check?
im always submitting the apps with chcked box, it's better to do even if you know it has IDFA.. so your on the good side.. otherwize you need to upload new build if its going to be rejected!
You do not need to add code to your project.
You should check the "serve ads within the app"
I am developing an iPhone app and according to my business plan, I need my application to support full screen advertisements. I have checked WWDC, Apple Docs and found that ADInterstitialAd which offers what I am after is only supported on the iPad. So, I am asking about any workarounds or alternatives to display full screen ads in my application.
Any suggestion is very welcome :)
Thanks!
You can show full screen ads by using the SDKs from some of the mobile big ad companies.
1) These are free to download and install,
2) They take about 15 mins to integrate into your app in xCode.
3) They all have instructions on their websites you can follow to set them up
4) You can usually set when and where you can these full screen ads to appear in your app quite easily
5) These work on iPad / iPhone / iPodtouch.
COMPANIES:
www.revmob.com - full screens, banners, popups. Your app will show ads for big iOS games (candy crush etc) and if a user clicks on them you will get paid from revmob.
www.playhaven.com - full screens, more screens and other interesting options. Your app will show ads for big iOS games (candy crush etc) and if a user clicks on them you will get paid from revmob.
www.chartboost.com - As well as doing what the two companies above do, you can also show full screen ads for ANYTHING - you can make up your own artwork and cross promote to your other games.
Hope that helps.

Other ad networks (Millennial Media, AdMob, etc.) offer full screen interstitial ads for smaller devices.
You can take a look at AdMob Interstitials Ads, which provide full screen ads for small devices:
https://developers.google.com/admob/ios/interstitial
The variety of networks that offer interstitial ads is rather big, just a few of most popular: AdMob, Amazon Ads, Applovin, Chartboost, Facebook ads, Tapsense, MoPub, Appnexus and many others. AdMob is quite reliable, i use it through Appodeal plugin for Chrome, this helps to increase the perfomance. At the same time i got access to Chartboost, Applovin, Mopub, Facebook and other networks via Appodeal account. There you can adjust different settings in your dashboard, I suppose it's the easiest way to show different types of ads on all supported devices.
I want to show ads in my iPhone application. i can do it using iAds. I need more details regarding this.
My first question is: is iAd mandatory if i have to show advertisement in my iphone application? or i am allowed to use some other alternative to display ads.
will iAds work in earlier versions of iPhone ?
can i test iAds outside USA ?
Apple takes 40% when we use iAds, is there any other alternative? so, we don't have to share 40% of the amount every time ?
I hope, i wrote everything in the way its easy to understand.
Thanks in advance.
Random google search turns up at least 10 other ad networks:
AdMob
Brightroll
Google AdSense for Mobile Applications
Greystripe
InMobi
Jumptap
MdotM
Millennial Media
SAY Media [VideoEgg]
ZestADZ
and at least one meta ad engine that combines all of the others here.
I have no idea which ones are good, though.
i wanna put my own banner ads in my iPhone application instead of using admob or iAd services.
Is this allowed or apple prohibits such behavior ?
It's allowed as long as the purpose of your app is not primarily advertising.
Lots of developers only run their own ads for their own apps inside their apps, so it certainly seems to be allowed.
If want to run your own ad service, make sure to comply with Apple's various terms regarding such things as privacy and content ratings.
I'm looking for sample code or tutorials on how to implement iAds in my iPhone application. Can anyone guide me to any resources about this?
The iAd Programming Guide has detailed information on implementation.
In Interface Builder just drag and drop your ad into the window. In Xcode, right click on your frameworks folder and add the iAd.framework. It's really that simple.
For more advanced things, like hiding and rotating ads, you could start with the WWDC session videos if you're a registered developer. If you're not, get an account because it's a very nice program and you need it to get your apps published.
The session 112 video is a step-by-step, I used it to get my own iAds running, but otherwise try this link iAds. You still need a developer account.
