Hello, sorry not to be a question directly linked to a language, but I searched a lot and did not find, anyone knows any library like Ad Mediator to be used in Windows Forms? How do I monetize/place ads in my form software? You can tell me if there are tools for this, and if possible give an example?

  • Try to use a Webbrowser with some kind of google ads, using this, if you wish, has how to do something a little more "illegal", simulating clicks on the ad, etc.. Look at the Adsense google.

  • I thought about it, I tried with some of these services, but you have to send a website link, and change this site so that they can validate and then be worth the ads, and that’s where the problem lies, I have no site, I have blog in Wordpress, but it’s not valid.. Is there a service that doesn’t require confirmation? This illegal method is not necessary kk, because the software will be accessed by thousands of users, but I do not want to develop the thing 100% free, I have to profit from ads kk

  • Google itself also offers a platform for monetization in android applications, Admob, without needing a website, another option would be Smaato

  • Admob would only be for apps, because there is the "Ad Mediator" reference That connects the ads, I’ll take a look at this other.

Leonardo, why don’t you mount advertising images and display them in a Panel (or panels), changing each Timer event.

You can read an XML from anywhere on the internet with all the images and store it in the database (sqlite, for example), keeping it up to date in case your client goes offline. Count clicks by the application even incrementing some column and from time to time, send XML to your site to total, zeroing local clicks.

If I was going to do something commercial for Windows Forms I would think of something more or less like this. Years ago I even did something like this in Delphi, following this line of thought.

Windows Forms is increasingly out of use, so I find it hard to find something like this. However, it is fully possible to monetize applications (either for Pcs, tablets or Mobile). Microsoft itself already develops an initiative of the type. https://dev.windows.com/en-us/monetize/ads

Look and see.

    Yes, but Pubcenter, or now Microsoft’s Monetize, works only with the SDK Ads, and I don’t think it supports Windows Forms.

  • Where did you get this information ?
