tell me about it. I guess almost everyone who has an app on google play gets contantly spammed by these ad firms, install increasers, and review sellers.

that's what you get when google spits out everyone's email address on the store.

admob is for most people the way to go.
all the others... don't know... they all have articles about how it improved earnings for some developer(s) but it seems more like promotional sales talk.
If you try them you barely earn something compared to admob since they only do cpi.

Yup. Other ad sources are not trustworthy. They use user's data to achieve those insane high RPM rates...

only have inmobi (ios) and chartboost (android) as mediation but only to have a possible alternative if there's no ad from admob.

earning is peanuts even with a lot of clicks.

If the income from it is so low maybe dont show any ad when admob doesnot have an ad for you like this you dont loose (much) and the user has more fun with your app because it shows less ads and maybe the uninstall rate will stay low.

Agreed. instead of showing more ads, try something innovative. Try adding ads in between any kind of feeds. This will result in a lot more impressions and while keeping your app look clean.
Sadly, the above can be done with native ads, which are currently deprecated.

the problem is that you don't know which countries admob focusses on.

But indeed if it earns pennies it's maybe not worth it.

You can know which countries have the most impressions and which produce the highest RPM, under AdMob reports. The RPM depends on the top countries your app is used in.
