So, I'll be launching my first android app in about a month and am trying to figure out the best way to get some cash from it. I was thinking of using banner ads, but they seem to spoil the aesthetics of the app. Also considered a simple paid app, but I'm afraid people just won't buy it. What strategies have you guys used and most importantly, were they successful?
I recently started looking to do some java freelance work to make some cash on the side. I like to think I'm a pretty experienced dev. However, on freelance sites, it always seems like a race to the bottom. Where can I find jobs that require someone with an experienced/large skillset?
