Podcast on Making money and mobilizing your wordpress blog
Posted by Rich Gubby on January 24, 2010 at 12:35 pmFiled under: Mobile Internet, Mobile Web Design, Mobile Web Development, Mobile Websites, Wordpress Mobile, wordpress mobile admin
Last week I did a podcast with Brian Prows from MobileBeyond. We went through quite a bit – from how you can mobilize your WordPress blog with our mobile plugin to how in a future release of the plugin you’ll be able to place Mobile Adverts on your blog and make a bit of money out of it.
You can listen to the whole thing on Brian’s website at http://mobilebeyond.net/mobilizing-and-making-money-with-a-wordpress-blog-or-mobile-website/ or have a search on iTunes for MobileBeyond.
Lastly, I must say a big thank you to Brian for first of all giving me the opportunity to do the podcast, and secondly for doing such an awesome job of editing it together!
Let us know what you thought of the podcast – and if you’d like to hear more, tell us what subjects you’d like us to cover!

Thanks, Rich. I enjoyed getting your insights and learning more about Wapple and mobilizing blogs. Your WordPress plugin, as I mentioned during the podcast, is the best solution for bloggers and others who want to quickly and easily get on the mobile Internet.
If your readers are interested in using mobile ad networks to monetize their blogs, review my blog posts on IM-Mobile (http://IM-Mobile.com)

Well this is one of the great feature of Wapple mobile plugin but still it needs lot of development , Currently it supports only 2 ad networks where as you should give an option to add php code of any Ad network. Also its feeding a permanent user-agent in admob ad which is causing the generation inappropriate ads. You can check the ads generating at my blog..

Thanks for the heads up – I’ll check out the Admob code to see what’s happening.
With regards to other ad networks – they’re going to be added in very soon. I can’t give the option of adding php code of any network as it needs to go through our device profiling engine in WAPL code (see http://wapl.info for more details).
But a few new ones are coming soon – what ad networks did you have in mind?

Thanks Rich for replying back, Well some of the major ad networks are buzzcity, inmobi and mojiva. Inwhich inmobi is must have. And regarding PHP codes i guess it wont be tough to leave Ads uotp blog only. It will be really a great help.

I’ll certainly take a look at those and integrate them if I can.
With regards to the issue on not passing through through the right user agent – that should now be fixed. I’ve just had an ad on my Nokia N73 about a game that’s available for it!
