A close friend just pass the Adwords Google certificate in June, after some explanations he gave me, making an Adwords campaign is not so obvious at it looks.
In fact, since a while, he does really a good job for very small to medium companies, here in France. And he succeeds with his own logic to makes very goods compaigns for not a lot.

But I think you can promote an iOS App via Adwords, even if the Google target is Android

I've also heard that Facebook ads aren't very expensive and you can target a specific audience

Cross promo is the best. It's free, fast and funny (I mean you can create "non standard" ads for your app).

You can try TapforTap.com but since they need your apps must be published on Google Play so I decide to make an "ads system" for myselft. It's quite easy, you just need a host and some PHP scripts.

It was not my intention to hijack your thread - just wanted clarification on a point that was mentioned.

You do not have to apologize, @Ed Brown ; I only wanted to emphasize that (

It's very simple. When my app starts, it'll check an PHP script for link/image/type of ad then it will add the banner into app. You can control your PHP script so no one can limit you from what you want to display on your app. But I think Google don't allow you to do that.

It's in-app-ads. It's only display inside your app. You earn money when users click on banner or they install other apps.
In this case, "cross promo" mean your ads will be display inside apps of other developers and their ads will be display inside your apps. You don't need to pay for it.
My "ads system" mean I promote my new app in my older apps.
