Legacy Update: Get back online, activate, and install updates on your legacy Windows PC

Make money from your Windows Phone apps using the Microsoft Advertising SDK for Windows Phone. The SDK installs a control in Visual Studio that you use to show ads in your apps. You get paid every time users click on an ad in your app.

• Available for XAML and Silverlight apps
• Show text or image ad formats with Click to Web, Click to Call and Click to Marketplace ads actions
• Ads are served by Microsoft's Mobile Ad Exchange, meaning that your app can get ads from multiple ad networks (including Microsoft’s adCenter), increasing fill rates and giving you payouts based on real time impressions
• Support for JavaScript Render Ready Ads
• MRAID 1.0 compliant

The new SDK is also integrated with Microsoft pubCenter so it is easier for you to use in Visual Studio, get accurate reporting, and collect the money your app generates.
