I have a free windows phone app and I want to generate revenue from advertising. I choose google admob to do this task, but when I add my app to admob system, there is no choice for windows phone app. There is only choice for android and iOS. I know that the google admob has the sdk for windows phone 8 but how can I register my app to get Ad ID?
You can use the "unit ID" in your application as a Ad ID.
// "MY_AD_UNIT_ID" with your interstitial Ad unit id.
private InterstitialAd objInterstitialAd;
objInterstitialAd= new objInterstitialAd("MY_AD_UNIT_ID");
Here is the useful links for the same:
Register your app
Create an ad unit
Hope it helps
Admob doesnot support ad units for Windows phone in some countries. Thats why, it is not showing that option.
PS: not in India as well.

I am making app of Xamarin UWP (Universal Windows Platform) and use Microsoft Advertising for mobile. For this I am using Link https://msdn.microsoft.com/windows/uwp/monetize/adcontrol-in-xaml-and--net
All thing is well, but problem is that when i am using their Test ApplicationId and AdUnitId, the ad will show and i use new created ApplicationId and AdUnitId then error is show- AdControl error: No ad available in developing mode. Please guide me..
Your apps have been published in the store or not, usually real Application Id and Ad unit Id value should apply from the published apps and it takes 1-2 days after that for ads from real units to start serving. So I would like to suggest you use test value when you create your project, you just need to replace test value with real values when you package your project and submit in the store.
The fill rate is very low for Windows ads, so it's not a problem with your code. Also, you won't see ads in developing mode, so you have to release your app in order to see the ads.
Is there any way I can do it without registering?The account is not registering me as a student and I cannot own a company just for this.
Juts follow this tutorial. All you have to do is sign in with your Microsoft account and your phone will be "dev unlocked". No windows phone developer account needed.

i have Developed a small windows Phone 7 app, for our customer[in INDIA]. The Problem is we are giving it free like a goodie for our main site. Is there any way to Upload the app into an Windows Phone without Uploading it to the market place?
To put an app on a phone without going through the marketplace, the phone has to be 'developer unlocked'. Once that is done, you can distribute your .xap file to the customer, and they can transfer the file to any developer unlocked phone. See http://blogs.msdn.com/b/publicsector/archive/2011/01/04/unlock-your-windows-phone-7-for-development.aspx
To 'Developer Unlock' you need a developer account. And 'Developer unlocking' each user's phone is practically very difficult.
Instead I would suggest you to upload your app to marketplace and share the marketplace link in your site or mail the link to your users.
We are planning to use AdControl in our windows phone app to show advertisement.
But we have some doubts,
Is the ads shown in Adcontrol is given by the microsoft ?.
We want to use a openx link to show ads. Is it possible to set openx link to the AdControl ?
Thnks.
If you use the AdControl that is part of the WP7 the ads are served to your app by Microsoft's Pubcenter. AdControl does not allow the client injecting additional ads into the AdControl.
If you want to vary how the ads are served, you will have to build your ad control. Have a look at AdRotator that supports a bunch or ad providers. WP7 also does not support arbitrary flash rendering, which OpenX appears to use.
I just downloaded the Beta sdk for admob on WP7 and after including the banner in the app(and viewing the default banner in the emulator mode) i've added the admob on-site publisher id an tried to run the app on a real device but there was no add showed (in debug and in release mode). The space is reserved (~75px of black space).
When looking in the console i see "Error - Ad Not Available (NoFill)" and on the admob site i see that there wasn't no ad request ever made. I got to the following conclusions:
1) there are no ads for my app due to windows phone's still-limited presence (but why isn't my app showing ad requests on admob site?). Also i found this on google's site :
Windows Phone 7 is new to the AdMob market, so in the short term you
may see some low fill rates until advertisers add this platform to
their targeting. Using test mode during development should eliminate
inventory as a variable in your SDK integration testing.
2)i've just created my admob ad so maybe google has a certain approval process.
Any other ideas of this problem? Has anyone else experinced it, and if so, how did they get over it?
UPDATE my app is now active on the adMob site and can see requests (122) , a fill rate(3.28%), eCPM(0), RPM(0) but the ads are still not showing. What can be the issue?
