Quick Start Example Code

Step 1: Prepare your AdMob Ad Unit Id for your banner and interstitial

var ad_units = {
	ios : {
		banner: 'ca-app-pub-xxx/xxx',
		interstitial: 'ca-app-pub-xxx/yyy'
	},
	android : {
		banner: 'ca-app-pub-xxx/zzz',
		interstitial: 'ca-app-pub-xxx/kkk'
	}
};
// select the right Ad Id according to platform
var admobid = ( /(android)/i.test(navigator.userAgent) ) ? ad_units.android : ad_units.ios;

Step 2: Create a banner with single line of javascript

// it will display smart banner at top center, using the default options
if(AdMob) AdMob.createBanner( admobid.banner );

Or, show the banner Ad in some other way:

// or, show a banner at bottom
if(AdMob) AdMob.createBanner( {
	adId:admobid.banner, 
	position:AdMob.AD_POSITION.BOTTOM_CENTER, 
	autoShow:true} );

// or, show a rect ad at bottom in overlap mode
if(AdMob) AdMob.createBanner( {
	adId:admobid.banner, 
	adSize:'MEDIUM_RECTANGLE', 
	overlap:true, 
	position:AdMob.AD_POSITION.BOTTOM_CENTER, 
	autoShow:true} );

// or, show any size at any position
if(AdMob) AdMob.createBanner( {
	adId:admobid.banner, 
	adSize:'CUSTOM',  width:200, height:200, 
	overlap:true, 
	position:AdMob.AD_POSITION.POS_XY, x:100, y:200, 
	autoShow:true} );

Step 3: Prepare an interstitial, and show it when needed

// preppare and load ad resource in background, e.g. at begining of game level
if(AdMob) AdMob.prepareInterstitial( {adId:admobid.interstitial, autoShow:false} );

// show the interstitial later, e.g. at end of game level
if(AdMob) AdMob.showInterstitial();

Tips

Some tips from recent stat data. (Fill rate and RPM may vary in different countries. For your reference only.)

• Using AdMob Plugin Pro, higher and more stable fill rate.

• Using Interstitial, much better profit.

• Using SMART_BANNER, avoid using BANNER or FULL_BANNER

Smart banner will auto detect the screen, and auto set a proper height, to fit whenever it's phone or pad.

If use FULL_BANNER, when app running on phone with smalll screen, as the screen is not big enough, it will not show banner with error "No fill".

Glossary:

• Fill rate: The number of times ads are shown on your app, divided by the number of times your app requests to show an ad.
• RPM: Revenue per 1000 impressions (RPM). RPM represents the estimated earnings you'd accrue for every 1000 impressions you receive.
• Intel XDK: Intel's HTML5 App IDE and service, to build mobile app in clould, allow using 3rd-party plugin from web.
• Adobe PhoneGap Build: Adobe service, to publish plugin and build app in cloud, only allow using plugins reviewed and approved.
