Android Ad Network Primer How to Monetize Android Apps with Advertisements eBook Tim Mackenzie
Summary:I bought this book with the hope it will provide insights into the complex and ever evolving ad networks for android. My second hope was it might be a good reference for information on ad networks. Unfortunately, this book fails on both sides. It does not provide a single useful piece of information you wouldn't find widely and publicly available. Not only that, but it is not even a comprehensive reference missing more popular and successful ad networks than what it contains.
Details:
1- Book breakdown:
This book consists of 4 sections and 3 appendices. The first section is a long introduction which anyone ever developed for android already knows. The second section is a ridiculous step-by-step tutorial to signup and setup AdMob, InMobi, MobFox, and LeadBlot. Thankfully, no paper was wasted for this section as I read the Kindle edition. In section three the author just rambles around wasting more of your time. In section four, after writing a 173 words conclusion, the author shamelessly dedicates it to advertise for his other books and website/blog.
The 3 appendices, on the other hand, are surprisingly more useful than the book sections. Appendix one is data the author collected on ad networks. However, most data fields are missing, and as I mentioned before, more popular ad networks are missing than what's included. Appendix two is a collection of links mentioned in the book. Appendix three is a glossary of 15 terms (this should be your indicator of how rich the book is).
2- Missing information:
Common phrases you'd read:
"I haven't had a chance to verify their ad solution yet"
"I can't say for sure"
"I did not investigate further"
"I didn't have time to"
"I haven't been able to verify this"
This should give you an idea that the author have not fully done his homework in gathering the information for you. In addition, in appendix one where the author is supposed to provide data on ad networks, most fields are labeled either as NA or unknown. Again, more information is missing than included.
3- Conflicts :
The author says "Push ads are another ad format that I do not want to be involved in at this time" at the end of appendix one. However, he includes moolahmedia in reviewed ad networks, which is mainly a push notification ad network. If the author criteria was not to include ad networks that only have push notification, then he should have included every ad network since none of them only have push notification alone.
I'd say the author is either bias or not well organize and a bit lazy!
4- Typos and mistakes:
I advise the author to use spell check for his next book. Typos such as "isin't" should not appear in any book. Furthermore, when you say APK instead of JAR you pretty much screw up the entire instruction list. The author did this mistake at least twice.
Conclusion:
The content of this book is more suitable to be summarize in a nice and freely available blog post. I stress on summarized because the content is over stretched to look richer.

Android Ad Network Primer How to Monetize Android Apps with Advertisements eBook Tim Mackenzie Reviews
Creating apps for learning is fun, but sometimes it's nice to make some money with your app. This book is good as it discusses ad placement with a freemium business model. Plus I liked the fact it discussed the reality of dealing with an ad network.
Just what the doctor ordered!!! This book is very well written and contains valuable information for the android developer who has struggled to turn a profit. I picked up this book and was very impressed with the value of the content. It is worth 100x the price!
I picked up the Android Ad Network Primer to learn how to monetize Android applications with the latest trends in mobile advertising.
Mr. Mackenzie's book provides a solid step-by-step introduction on how to integrate AdMob, InMobi, MobFox and Leadbolt ad networks into the application.
The primer included evaluation criteria for the various ad networks and specific payout limits from each network. The text also provides step-by-step instructions with screenshots on how to integrate the ads into the Android application. The book also helped set expectations for timeline for payment from the various ad networks.
I understand this is a primer and I would like more information on a case study application and revenue earned to serve as a model for my own applications.
Recommended for the Android developer looking to incorporate ad revenue into their portfolio of applications.
This is not a book, it's payed advertisement. Stolen money.
Before buying this book I read the review of Ammar Mardawi
"One star review, very bad... but only one person wrote that, other 3 reviews rated fro 4 to 5 stars.
Maybe Ammar Mardawi has given a too bad review..."
NO. IT'S ALL TRUE!
- It's very short. I read it all in one hour and half.
- It gives no information (it tells me how to register to sites???)
- It refers to many things that could be interesting (things for which I've bough the book), but they are treated in another book!
Unbelievable.
