How to Make Money with Google Admob in Nigeria
Here are steps to make money with Google AdMob in Nigeria.
1. Develop an App or Buy One
Since you need to have an app before you can make money with Google Admob, the first step is to create an app. This is where your skills as a software developer come here. You need to create an app that is a game or a mobile app that helps its user to perform one task or the other.
If you cannot create a mobile app, you can also buy one. The idea that is it only software developers that can own apps is false. You can also own a mobile app by buying one online. There are many platforms on which you can buy a mobile app. Some of these platforms are sellmyapp, codecanyon.net, codester, ibuildapp, and more.
2. Promote the App Online
After creating or buying a mobile app it takes time before consumers start installing it to use. This is because they need to know that your app is safe and it truly serves the purpose it was created for. This is where app promotion comes into place. You need to promote your application by creating ads for it.
A video ad is beneficial for using the app and how to install it will go a long way. This promotion might take time especially if you have a target of number of users in mind. However, do not worry.
3. Sign up for Google AdMob
After your app has gained publicity and trust the next step for you will be to sign up for Google AdMob so that you can monetize your mobile app. I have explained the steps above. You just need to follow the process hitherto.
It is important to note that the 9th step might be technical for you if you are not a software developer. If you cannot do this, hire a professional app developer to help you out.
4. Start Earning with Admob
After the sign-up has been done and you met all the conditions or criteria, you can start earning with Google Admob. Over one million apps are using Google admob to generate revenue of $1 billion for their app developers. This tells you that they are reliable. As time goes by after signing up for Google Admob you will see your earnings increase.
5. Increasing Earnings on Google Admob
There are many things that determine your earnings on Google Admob but one major element is the country the users of your app operate your mobile application from.
For example, you will earn more on Google admob if your users are from Canada, the USA, and the United Kingdom. Asides from this, you also increase your earnings when users stay longer on the app and they use the app often.
Conclusion
Making money with Google AdMob is one of the easiest ways to make money online in Nigeria. This is because you will always make money as long as users use your mobile app. You also do not need to do anything daily aside from doing a few changes to your app to update it once in a while.
If you are a developer I see no reason why should not be making money with Admob today.
