Monetization

This is a premium feature available with WP Mobile Pack PRO. Navigate to WP Mobile Pack > Monetization to configure your Google DoubleClick for Publishers integration.

  1. Login to your DoubleClick for Publishers account from https://www.doubleclickbygoogle.com/solutions/revenue-management/join-dfp/

  2. Navigate to Inventory > Ad Units units and click on New ad unit to create a dedicated ad for your progressive web application.

  3. Fill in the form by entering the Code and Name and leave the rest of the fields empty.

  4. Under the “AdSense inventory settings” click on override to display Google AdSense settings. Make sure you check “Maximize revenue of unsold and remnant inventory with AdSense” to enable Google AdSense.

  5. Select “Image” as the Ad type and leave the default settings for the color palette. Click Save and you should see the newly created ad in the next screen.

  6. You’ll be presented with two codes after selecting the tag type and options (just go with the default settings): one for the document header and one for the body. Locate the Network Code and Ad Unit Code and copy-paste it into the WP Mobile Pack PRO admin panel.

Troubleshooting – Common Display Problems

If you wish to preview the ads that will appear on your progressive web application, please view it from a smartphone or a tablet. The ads are being displayed throughout your content, so you just need to swipe 4-5 times to get a full screen ad or navigate inside an article to view a classic advertisement. There is a minimum interval of 30 seconds between loading ads, so not all the articles will include ads while you navigate through the application.

Sometimes ads will not show even though you have edited the settings from the WP Mobile Pack PRO dashboard.There is no processing involved at the progressive web application level, meaning that, in those cases, Google DFP is not loading anything.

There are various reasons for this issue:

  • Even if the _Network Code _and _Ad Unit _are correct, there is a delay before Google AdSense / DFP starts serving the ads. This time interval ranges from a few minutes to a few hours.

  • If a few hours have already passed and you still don’t see any ads in the progressive web application, is time to check your AdSense / DFP settings. Make sure you have not excluded mobile from your targeting and that you haven’t limited ads to sizes that are not added in the WP Mobile Pack PRO admin panel. You can debug by starting with minimal, basic settings, check if ads are displaying, then move on to more complex targeting.
