Who do I pick as my Admob ad technology providers

Tags:

In compliance of the GDPR, Google says that I must 'Select ad technology providers' and get users' consent. But the Google-rendered consent form is not supported if any of the publisher IDs use the commonly used set of ad technology providers. This means that I need to manually choose ad technology providers for my account in order to avoid collecting consent myself with the 'with the Publisher-managed consent collection option'. Here I am blank.

Which ones should I choose, and what difference does it make if I don't use mediation and only use admob? Should I use only one provider i.e. Google?

Edit: Thanks for the downvotes. I honestly don't see why this is not a valid question, except that perhaps this should have been asked somewhere else, for which I seek guidance.

What are ad technology providers?

Ad technology providers (including Google and other ad networks and vendors) use data about users, for example, to show them personalized ads or to report on conversions.

What is the difference between Google ad Manager and AdMob?

AdMob is Google's automatic ad exchange for Mobile Apps. Google Ad Manager can manage ad exchange from both mobile apps and web pages, and Ad Manager also manages direct-sold ads and private deals. You can choose how to implement the SDK based on what ads management platform you are using.

Which is better AdSense or AdMob?

AdMob is used for native applications, so you should use AdMob in this case. AdSense is used for mobile web applications. The amount of revenue in an ad-based model really depends on the amount of users and ad requests. Ads can be a good stream of revenue but you do need the user base for it to take off.

Is Google AdMob and Google AdSense the same?

AdMob is a Google ad network that allows developers and publishers to monetize their mobile apps with relevant ads from a huge inventory of advertisers. While AdSense is for websites, Admob is for apps. Basically AdMob and AdSense are the same but the first one is specialized for mobile apps and the second is for web.

I have been trying to answer myself that question for a week already. This is what I do.

Check on your Adsense Account, go to "Advanced Reports">"Ad Networks" and you will see All the Ad Technologies providers that your app has gotten Ads from, that should give you an idea of which Ad providers would be good for you.

If your app is new and don't have any data, I would suggest to go only with Google(default).

In my particular case, my app has been up for 8 months with 450 installs and 45 active installs.

Google Networks reports a 91.5% on impresions and 97.3% on Estimated Earnings.

IMO having Google as only one provider will look better when the user wants to see who the app shares information with, instead of having a list of 12 of which never heard of. In the beginning I thought on choosing the best 12, but by the numbers it doesn't make much of a sense and chose to stick with Google alone.

DISCLAIMER: I know nothing regarding Ad Networks and I choose Google because of my Admob history and nothing else.
