Help! How to Monetize at Amazon

Is there any way to include ads or playhaven or anything like that to generate revenue from my free app at Amazon, besides linking it to my paid game? If not, does anyone know of another GameSalad type of software that allows you to include adds in the Android version of the game?

If you by chance know how to quickly convert an App I have created in GameSalad into an App that can incorporate ads, please let me know.

Thanks

    Sadly, there is no way to put ads. (since years ago we are asking for admob, and nothing so far)...

    Gamesalad is the easiest 2d game creator. You could learn unity or corona and port your idea to them.

    @SaladStraightShooter I know people keep throwing around the name admob, but why not an aggregator like adwhirl or mobclix? These could be universal and host both iAds, admob, and other ad partners. Additionally, is GS looking at implementing IAP for Amazon? That could be a huge monetization feature, as well as direct linking to apps through Amazon and Nook (as was mentioned in another thread).

    AdMob - while it does have brand recognition - isn't the golden goose most people try and represent it as and is unlikely to be chosen by GameSalad.
    That would be unfortunate in my opinion. Admob has the best chance, I think, of improving its performance and capitalize on its market exposure/brand.
