AdMob ( ) is a mobile advertising company founded by Omar Hamoui. It was incorporated in 2006 and is based in San Mateo, California. In November 2009 it was acquired by Google for $750 million. The acquisition was completed on May 27th, 2010. Apple Inc. had also expressed interest in purchasing the company the very same year, but they were out-bid by Google, and have since introduced their own iAd advertising platform. Prior to being acquired by Google, AdMob acquired the company AdWhirl, formerly Adrollo, which is a platform for developing advertisements in iPhone applications. AdMob offers advertising solutions for many mobile platforms, including Android, iOS, webOS, Flash Lite, and all standard mobile web browsers.
AdMob is one of the world's largest mobile advertising platforms and claims to serve more than 7.1 billion mobile banner and text ads per month across mobile Web sites and handset applications.
In 2010, AdMob received a Mobile Premier Award.
In May 2010, AdMob was recognized as one of the "Hottest Silicon Valley Companies" by Lead411.
