How exactly do you make money with apps?

Display Ads

You’ve probably installed an app on your phone that displays ads while you use it. It may have a few pop ups or banners that display ad content you may be interested in. It’s possible that these ads are Google AdMob. the most popular ad kit in use for most apps. Another option I have some experience using is Ad Colony. Their documentation and guides are easy to understand and implement. Typically ad supported apps are free.

In App Purchases

Typically an app is free to download and use, however there are some features that can be unlocked when purchased for a fee. Android SDK comes with the ability to download the Google Play Billing Library to add to your projects. Or perhaps you would like to script it yourself. Other examples of in-app purchases can be power-ups in games, or extra content.

Good Ol’ Fashioned Flat Pricing

So you wrote a program and you’re confident in it’s abilities that maybe people will simply buy it outright. That’s cool! Simply slap a price on it in the marketplace and be on your merry. Of course if you want people to purchase your product you might want to release a demo or video on how it works and what it can do.

2:Create An App

If you don’t know how to code and would like to learn you can find plenty of courses at Udemy that can help you get started making your first app. Udemy is one of the first places I go when I need to learn something new. You can also learn to code for free at Code Academy. and begin grasping the basics and fundamentals. Scripting can be difficult, however there are plenty of forums out there of people running into the same problems you may face when scripting.
