Founded by Omar Hamoui, AdMob is a mobile advertising company incorporated in 2006. In November 2009 it was acquired by Google for $750 million. The acquisition was completed on May 27, 2010.
Apple Inc. had also expressed interest in purchasing the company the same year, but they were out-bid by Google. AdMob offers advertising solutions for many mobile platforms, including Android, iOS, webOS, Flash Lite, Windows Phone 7 and all standard mobile web browsers.
